Thursday thoughts
Posted by Rockjaw in Day Today, MMO-related on May 29th, 2008
Start the day with coffee, and trying to figure out what we have left to do for the UK Games Expo. We’ve done this so many times it should become second nature, and to an extent it has, but there’s always room for error… and the more complacent you get the more errors you make.
We need to buy hangers (for t-shirts) and storage ‘tubs’ for stock and, in fact, t-shirts. Quick trip to Woolies and one of several local ‘pound shops’ and we’re sorted.
Back to the office. It’s Massage Day (woo!) and Chris is having his First Ever Massage. When he comes out he tells me “I don’t know why I waited so long to have that.” Nor do I mate. Read the rest of this entry »
Tick-tock Thursday
Today was the kind of day where I just seemed to get distracted every other moment. Tick, tock, tick, tock – like a metronome….
- Start the day in the unofficial second office with coffee, and a good ol’ fashioned brainstorm. Haven’t done one of those in a while….
- We’re talking Christmas party. Yes, this is part of what we do. Yes, we’re talking about it in April. IT WILL BE THAT BIG. Maybe. Possibly. Come work here and find out!
- Satisfied that we have a corker of an idea, we come back to the office to find that apparently, someone has sent me a brick through the post. “Perhaps it’s a note… wrapped around a brick… sent in the post. It’s the genteel way of making a very serious point,” I wonder aloud.
- Actually it turns out it’s a stack of fliers for the UK Games Expo, which we’re exhibiting at, and which we’ve said we’ll pass around at other shows. Unfortunately they didn’t arrive for the MiniCon, so now I just have to tell you; we’ll be at the UK Games Expo. It will be excellent.
- As I sit down, I notice that people keep disappearing into the meeting room near me and coming out looking happy. Then remember: it’s massage day! And I have a half-hour slot booked at 11:45! Woooo!
- Crack on with the artist bios spread for the sketchbook, which still needs to be fully edited and is still missing a few bios and pics. Andrew’s provided a couple overnight, but there are still holes, and our designer is needing to get the page laid out…
- Work on that until – yay! Massage time! In case you’re wondering, a local company sends a masseuse around to our offices every couple of weeks. The company subsidises it, so you get a cheap massage if you want one. Boy, did I.
…. Imagine half an hour of blissful massage here, accompanied by strange techno-chanting music….
