Indie Game and Zynga

So, I am sitting here watching Indie Game: The Movie and playing FarmVille 2 while drinking a beer.  To be honest, I am a bit bored.  This movie is actually really good, gives you a great insight on how the people developing these games feel during their process of making a game from scratch, the middle of it, the end product and all the shit that happens in between those three things.  The thoughts from the men in this movie are what intrigue me the most, the human aspect of not wanting to fail makes this movie a great movie.  All of the gentlemen in this movie have their hearts on their sleeves the whole time.  You are seeing a piece of them that only the closest people in their lives get to see, in retrospect...

you are seeing who they really are.

I'm loving it and in some way feel that I am connecting with them in some minute way, I know how they feel, they seem like people who I would get along with, people who are kindred spirits and I like that.

So onto the other thing that I mentioned at the top of this blog.  FarmVille 2 ugh.

I'm playing it right now as we speak, waiting for a dame got to finish it's allotted time limit so that I can harvest the milk from it's life giving tit because I have a challenge to finish with the milk that it gives, I NEED IT!!!  Zynga has once again found a way to make a horribly addicting game that will most likely draw in every house mom in the country and slowly suck the life out of all of them.  Something interesting has happened though and if I remember correctly Zynga recently has filed for bankruptcy and closed down their studios.  I feel bad for the people who worked there, the people who coded and did the art for it and just put all this time and effort into these games and who are now out of a job.  I hope that some how they will rise out of the ashes that were once Zynga these people can make something else, something awesome and something that I would someday want to play.

I think that I have babbled enough in this post, to be honest I feel strange and not really like my chipper self.  I'm off now, bey.

Trying to Get Fit

So recently I have noticed that my gut has gotten just a little bit out of control.  Now, the people who know me are probably like, "What?!  You are skinny as fuck!".  Unfortuantly that is not the case.  So I decided to start doing some cardio, push up's and sit up's recently and I feel a little bit better, granted I have only been doing this for the last three days.  We are fortunate to have a pool in the condo complex that we live in so I have been swimming a bunch of laps after I get home from work.  This led me to a discovery.  I am horribly out of shape and I would suppose that I am in the worst shape of my life.  Now i'm not morbidly obese or something like that, I just know that my body could be a bit better then it is as of now.  So I have been doing a lot of swimming and to be honest I had forgotten how good of a workout it actually is.  When I am done with the set amount of laps that I choose I usually feel wiped out, especially for the last two days but today was definitely different.  I felt way better after today's swim then I have the last two days.  I think my body is starting to get used to some sort of exercise again.  And well, push up's and sit up's are easy enough to do so that's why I have been doing those as well.  It's time to pump me up and slim me down.

Well, I don't have anything else big to share so lets do quickie news, I haven't done that in a while.
Ready...
Set...
GO!!!!!

1)  My youngest son has started to walk, it's amazing but he is now getting into everything and anything

2)  About a month ago we welcomed a new niece to the family, my sister in law gave birth to such a beautiful little girl.

3)  My sister is going to be staying with my mom for about two months sometime next month until her classes start up again.  I cant wait to see her.

4)  I think I am finally out of that honeymoon phase at my new job, but I am still loving the job.

5)  I have also met up with a lot of people I went to school with thanks to this new job.  All of them have been super nice.  A big thank you to all of you.

That's all for tonight everyone.  Until next time.

Packing Sucks

So...

My wife and I are in the middle of packing for our move to Oakhurst Ca since I recently got a new job that requires us to move to the small town.  We are both excited about the move, but the packing part is killing us.  It's crazy how much crap you find out you really own when you start to pack it all into boxes.  I mean, I thought we were pretty good on the, "Not having shit we don't need" side, but boy was I wrong about that.  Luckily we have till the end of the month to be out of our place so we have plenty of time to pack.  It just feels very arduous and annoying to have to put everything into boxes, move it and then unpack it all once again.  The funny thing is that we will probably be doing this in another year because we both plan on buying a house when our year long lease is over at the condo we are going to rent.  Anyways, moving sucks so onto a different topic.

Pay day is tomorrow and I could not be happier for it.  We don't really need the money or anything but gosh dang it I still love pay day.  It's like a mini Christmas that you had to work for.  The only down side is having to give that money to your bills every dang month, NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I should be hearing from my new job soon pertaining to my start date.  It's been a week since I turned in my back grounds packet and they said about a week or two, I'm hoping that it will coincide nicely with my last day at my current job.  To be honest, I would very much like to go to work at the new job as soon as possible.  I'm excited to learn about this new casino, it's always exciting to see how a casino runs as a whole and to see how it's employee's like working at said casino.  This has always been something that has excited me.  It's kind of weird but once you have worked in a casino for a while you will understand how a casino employee feels going from one casino to another.  I typed the word "casino" a shit load of times in those above sentences.

Well, that is all for today.  Until next time my pretties!

Not Really What I Want

With every day that passes I realize more and more that what I am doing currently job wise in my life is not what I want at all.  In fact I'm pretty sure I am starting to hate it which sucks, in no way shape or form do I want to hate the job I am tasked to do day in and day out.  But it is happening and it seems that there is really nothing that I can do about it, regardless.  What I do know I want to do is start up a business, which I am int he process of writing up the business plan for, but its going to take time.  I'm going to go by what people say, good things come to those that wait, right?

Anyways, on to other less depressing things.

I have been music starved lately, I NEED it and I NEED it now...NOW!!!!!!!!!
I have been waiting for my Flip HD to come in the mail, well actually to be more accurate to arrive at the Best Buy that I chose for it to go to.  Once I get this key piece of equipment I will be posting some acoustic videos of my band and I that way we can at least be doing something other then doing nothing.  In fact I plan on doing other things with this camera, like actual videos, funny videos, serious videos and all of the other genre's that I did not just mention.  I'm pretty sure that I will even start up a Vlog on the youtube channel I already have, I'm not going to post the URL to that yet but once I have more stuff on there I will post the URL and the people who visit this blog can go and check it out.

Well, that's all for today, sorry it took me so long to write up a new blog, I will try to write more often this coming week.
