Super-Zero

So as I sit in this well known coffee chain drinking one of their patented tea products (i assume) I am thinking about all the things I’d rather be doing today. Sure there are all the normal things such as sleeping late and playing games but I feel my life lacks adventure and fantasy.

‘But fantasy isn’t real’, I hear you scream. It should be.

Where is all this coming from? Well the E3 trailer for Final Fantasy XIV Online got me to thinking about how boring our lives really are. Sure there is cool tech to be had and interesting gossip in the office, but wheres the excitement and adventure? Where’s the risk, the epicness?

Chances are that its not really there for 95% of us. Times just aren’t as epic anymore. I’d like to believe in a time of dragons, magic and great evil to be overcome but like all things it probably is just a story passed down from generation to generation.

My tea’s gotten cold.

So, I have managed to inadvertently land myself with a lot of work to do over the summer…

Well I’ll be honest it’s my own doing really but it’s still going to take up quite a bit of my time. At least I get paid for it.

I guess that’s my way of saying the job is going well. They have taken my suggestions on board and decided that we should go on ahead with an overhaul of this, so you can see I have my work cut out for me.

I plan to turn it into this, but well see how it goes.

While I wouldn’t call myself a web developer I seem to be OK at designing things…however the problem arises when trying to code these ideas up, so I am going to be burying myself in books a fair bit this summer. On top of that I need to code up Super-Zero and one of my other projects too for a small independent group.

So yeah, fun summer ahead. However, if I do it right I should be able to do it all, and still have time to play Fallout 3 (which i have only now started playing and its awesome!) and some Red Dead Redemption, which I haven’t actually got yet but hoping to receive for my birthday which is on Wednesday. Plus the lots of gaming nights, movie making and other things we have in store for the summer (StarCraft II).

Which, speaking of, should be an awesome day. I have taken it off work. I have about 39 bottles of Coors Light in the Garage and have from now until Friday free…

Yes, It will be good.
