Ok, I was wrong. They didn't make me an offer, low-ball or otherwise. They made me into a full-on contractor, working from home. I think I am a business owner now. I also >>>SHAME<<< bought a PC. Hence.

I have returned from my 75-day blogger hiatus. I am working here as a contractor but I think they'll make me an offer. It will be a low-ball. I will probably take it.

Also check out this game. M@rk and Andrew really dig it. And there's a dungeon version that rocks as well.

I am sunburned from Girls camp and unemployed. My life could be worse. I could be a cat.

The Gods of Nerf are descending into our mortal plain.

Interesting day -- I got a non-offer from my >>recruiter<< and a precis on the company's health (not great). "Be a trainer for us, develop curriculum, write resumes for cash! Also, be concerned for our fiscal safety and risk your family!" Can I be the first to say, "Ew!"

Several sites full of automata, kits and museums of ideas and galleries. Mechanical fun for all.

Delightful machines!

Here is the king daddy of Nerf sites, for your foam bullet slaying edification.

Here is a good R.E.M. lyrics site, tuned specifically to Fables but then so am I.

Desk is done and in -- all that's left is to drill holes for cables and decorate! Actually I am working there, at the desk, uh, speak.

Just so down today, what with not having a real serious job lead and stuff. E. seems to be down also -- figures, what with the laack of security and such. Office painting is finished now -- on to the desk buidling and moving the iMac blahblah.

Today I look for work. Look is the key, since getting work would really slow down my slack. Still, unemployed is unmanning in most ways. I take comfort in the impending dissolution of my former employer's world -- stock = flat spin into desert floor.

I got laid off! I lost all my bookmarks sort of -- I certainly lost the T1 Fist of Power! So let's say I'm back and blogged.
