Getting older

You always hear it, ways to tell that you are getting older. Some are obvious like, going to bed earlier or not enjoying going out clubbing/drinking/partying. Some are scary like, making comments your parents would make, getting annoyed at those kids who have everything.

I discovered a new one the other day.

Getting excited over finding good deals on kid's clothing. I was at Kohl's looking for some clothes for our  son and I hit the motherload. T-shirts for $1,long sleeve shirts for $3. I got a couple hoodies for $7 a piece. What was truly frightening was how excited I got. I was beyond thrilled when the receipt said I saved over $350. I ended up with around 25 pieces of clothing and the total just barely broke $80 with tax.

You: "because there's a skillet in there!" Me (wife) : what?! Why is there a skillet in there?? You, angrily: "BECAUSE IT'S GERMAN!!" Upon me asking why you went downstairs and came back up empty handed: "I had to put the cake in the microwave because ...

Programming!

When Quake came out I was hooked, it was incredible. When QuakeC(and the level designer) came out, I was even more hooked. I literally jumped headfirst into it with no programming or design experience whatsoever. Level designing and me didn't quite work out, I was never happy with the maps I finished. Programming though? Man it was awesome. I spent a ton of time, tinkering and making various mini mods. Eventually, I'm proud to say, I was able to write up a bot that worked quite well, IMO of course.. I never released it, due to that fear of rejection. Eventually, real life took its toll and I started to stray away from it all. I made a few maps for Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament. I dabbled a bit with UDK but nothing to the extent of the fun I had with QuakeC. Anyway, recently, in a effort to better occupy my free time, I've kinda jumped back into programming. I have no desire to release any games or software, but its certainly been a blast just tinkering. The Unity software i...
