Really great TED talk about how games can increase your health and life quality. Super engrossing. Excellent talk.

Well I haven’t updated the blog in a while. Reasons being I’ve been super busy. I know that’s a general “lack-of-blogging” reason, but I’ll break it down for you. 

I’ve finished my work at The Coast and now I’m working at a company called Liberated that does all manner of things. I’m on to do graphic / web design, but the company does software development, web development, web hosting and they have their own CMS. So thats pretty great. So far its been much better than my last few months at the old job.

I’ve also taken up playing Magic very casually. It’s a hard game to play casually, as most of the players around locally are really intense. I have a few friends who are into it, but they’re busier than I am. Building the decks has been fun and I’m really starting to dig the gameplay.

Battlefield 3 has been taking a bunch of my time too since I’ve found a few regular players on Xbox Live. The enjoyment in the game increases ten-fold when you can actually communicate with people. Who would have thought?

Most recently our neighbours had a crazy flood in their apartment. Which means some of it has spilled into our apartment. Mainly on the bottom floor, but that is where the ugly carpet is. So the plus side is that it’s being ripped up and hopefully nice flooring down. It also forced us to do a bunch of chores all at once. Nothing we had got really ruined. JJ was awesome enough to grab a bunch of the things that would have been totally wrecked while I had to go to work.

That’s my life recently. Now I have to get back to work.
