Crap…
So, I’ve noticed that I’m not writing about me anymore. Some might think this is a good thing, but I’m wondering if I spend too much time writing about other people’s creative output, I’ll lose my own. So, as of now, I’m planning on writing in this thing once per week. Probably from the netbook. Though i’d love to be all space age and write from the iPhone, the truth is that the whole keyboard thing is an issue. I’ll check into maybe getting a 3G dongle for it, or learning how to tether the netbook to the iPhone for 3g access.
So, enough about that crap. I’m 40, as of this past monday, and it’s once again time to take stock of the me. Because the unexamined life and all…just isn’t my thing. So, back to the examining. Soon, anyway. Not RIGHT now, of course. THis is just me priming the pumps, so to speak.
Things to write about:
DayJob
Family, Kids, Spouse
Friends and Acquaintances
The Superhero Novel That Shouldn’t Be That Hard to Finish, For Chrissakes
Sex, Drugs, and Disco
General Philosophical Meanderings
And….there you have it. The topics of note. I’ll probably also be dumping some links in here from time to time, as they’ll help me keep up on shit. And stuff. TTFN!

Love my hobby!
I’ve been pretty absent over here, but finally have an excuse to post. I don’t like to toot my own horn in public, but in private? you bet!
Here’re tweets from two iPhone developers that put out great games, telling everyone how great I am:
These guys are pretty amazing themselves. Tim is a promotional monster, thinking up new cool ways to bring users and folks together thoruhg his game contests, and Keith is just the friendliest geek I’ve ever met, putting out intelligent games with emotional resonance with his wife, @nattylux.
Kudos to these, and all the other developers, publishers, and game journalists in this new, exciting iPhone/iPod Touch gaming era!
Nuff said.

something I need to learn here
Twice now, in a very short period of time, I feel like I have given my all, my 110% to stay professional, pleasant, keep the lines of communication open, and connect on a real human level with another person whom I’m dealing with and/or negotiating with. Both times, I’ve been stupefied by the lack of ability of that other person to return the same level of connection and true honest communication.
What is it I need to learn here? I feel like maybe I need to be able to face this sort of situation with more equanimity. I firmly believe that all things being equal, people are doing the best that they can given their own history and worldview. That’s ok.
But how do I get through a working relationship with these kinds of people? How do I, who sees connection and genuine caring as essential for a close working relationship, include these folks into close working relationships? Do I need to? What is it that I need to learn here?
