Go! Read! Be Amazed!
IGN has announced my game! I can probably share more info after the initial press stuff has gone out. But for now, I can say that it's been awesome to be working on a small WiiWare title. The arcade version is really fun, and I think I've made the WiiWare version even better - and I hope that all of you guys will support it and pick up a copy.
WOO HOO! |

| I'm Back! |

I am not sure how many of you realize what I have been doing for the past two years. I am not sure I do either but yesterday I finally got one part of my life back that i had left behind in order to move back up north. I had demoted myself in order to transfer into another district. I used to be a store manager and for the past year I have been an Assistant with the same company. Most of you know where I work so I wont mention name due to legal issues surrounded with my blog.
Well yesterday I was finally offer a store again. When my boss asked me if I needed to talk it over with my people I kind of laughed it off and said no i will take it thanks. But after the struggle I have been through over the past couple years I can't tell you how relieved I am to be back. I take over the location tomorrow and with all my new knowledge will be better than ever. I am sorry I neglected you guys I am still trying to figure how to walk the line between work and this. I guess if I don't mention my job too much and just babble about non specific things they can't say anything.
I think main concern is using information I have from my job and spreading street dated information and sales numbers and statistics. So I am gonna make my babbling more about the trivial. I am so excited I can't tell you what a relief this is.

No seriously, I've been really busy |

This is the first night in the past month that I've really had time to relax. It was nice. I caught up on some emails (not caught up caught up - but I replied to some). I played a little Halo 3. I relaxed on the couch. It was nice. I've been putting in extra hours at work, dealing with Calvin's birthday and family from out of town, and up and down sicker than I've been in a while for like 2 weeks. It's been chaos. I still have lots of stuff to do at work, but I should be able to take a few minutes off for myself here and there.
So the big life news right now is that I've lost 23 pounds in 5 weeks. Yep. 23 pounds. I'm a svelte 185ish right now after sitting at over 205 for quite some time now. The secret? Calories in vs. calories out. I'm eating a lot less calories than I used to and actually doing some real excercising. I've been biking and jogging and Dance Dancing for a good 3 hours per week (except for when I was sick). My snacks have been more regular too, which apparently really does help metabolism. And I've even gone to Taco Bell at least twice. I'm not winning the work contest right now, because it goes by Body Fat percent, but once I kick in some muscle workouts, I should be in pretty good shape. I may even have to eat some more calories.
As for work, things are really cool right now. I'm actually project manager and lead developer on a game I can't talk about just yet. I had 6 people working for me at one point! It's been interesting getting back in to that kind of role, and certainly exciting since it will be my first shipped game. But it's also been pretty stressful. You guys will all have to buy my game and tell me how great it is even if you don't really like it that much and it will all be worthwhile.
I did actually start my "music of 2007" babble, but I figured I had to warm up with this one. And it's not like 2007 is really getting that much further away. So yeah - I'll babble again soonish I hope. No really. I will. |

| Snow Day |

More snow, gotta to love it. I just wish the mall would shut down. Then I could stay home and play video games all day. Wonder if I can even say that. But seriously I could get so much gaming done with snow on the ground. I could call in a bomb threat then they would close the mall. But now that I mentioned it on my blog I beat if there is ever another bomb threat they will come right for you know who.
Been very busy here still. Trying to make it too tax return time so we will have some extra money to fix the place up. Playing lots of WOW finally hit 70 and got my flying mount. Everyone is still sleeping so I can actually use the computer. We might get a second one soon so that be a problem any more whoever want to use it can then.
I had a scare a week ago. I thought this one was toast but a little canned air and I am back in business. I guess I just wanted to say hey and prove T wrong even though he is usually right and if he hadn't made that comment I might have waited longer. We have almost unpacked now and hopefully I can get my butt in gear. The past year or two has been trying to say the least and I just wish I could get back to stuff I put aside. Love you guys. I will return. |

I have some good news and some bad news. First I recently found out that as a employee of a very large retailer of video games I can not have a blog about video games. When I first heard this I almost flipped out. I am not sure about the person I got this info from but my crack legal team is looking into it as we speak. I am not sure what I can say or not say about video games on the site at this point.
But I can continue to mention other things till I know for sure. I can also calm ignorance till I get the skinny on this info. I could have already said too much. I am being very serious about this. I would like to very much continue my babbling. I have been a slacker. I have a history of slacking but now knowing that my right to babble could be taken for me I feel it is my duty to babble.
I will review sodas, music, movies, anything. They can not silence GoofyB's voice. Only GoofyB can silence his own voice by not babbling. No one else will tell me what to say.
They did mention a contract. But I don't remember any contract and I read most of the employee handbook. I will be getting to the bottom of this in the coming days. I will keep you informed of any news and I will be heard. Funny thing, when I was hired I told them I had a site I don't know if rules have changed but I know recently people have leaked info about shipments and sales on the internet. This is not my intension and I will be loyal to my employer and your needs.
Thankyou for your support and I will get you some pics up of my girls. If it is cute baby pictures you want I have 3 little girls that love to ham it up. |

Where's Goofy B? |

That jerko hasn't babbled in over 3 months now - yet somehow he has time to get almost 25,000 achievement points and to beat more games last year than me. What's up with that? I'm half tempted to just remove his account from BuzzJive altogether and just make it my personal journal. Most people just want to see pictures of Calvin anyway.
As for me - I'm going to get a couple meaningful babbles out here real soon. I want to share my music recommendations of 2007 - since it turned out to be a great year. I should also have some work related news to share soon I hope. And I'm starting a diet tomorrow - so I'll try to keep you posted on some of those details soon. How exciting is that? More exciting than Goofy B's excuses for not posting - that's for sure. |

Happy Birthday Jesus |

And Merry Christmas to the rest of you. Having an almost 2 year old at this time of year was quite an adventure. Between my wife and I, the little guy has 4 sets of grandparents, which makes for WAY too many presents. Every kid should want to have a disfunctional family like this. HA. There's a piano, tricycle, wagon, little people's and cars, books, clothes, and plenty of other stuff. As for me, I did get Super Mario Galaxy, Guitar Hero 3 Wii, Rayman Rabbits 2 and Tony Hawk's Proving Ground. Not a bad game haul. I also got an electric razor, which means I theoretically won't look like a caveman all the time anymore.
So yeah - Happy Holidays!! I hope you guys all got a good haul. We're overdue for some online gaming.
In other news, my job is going great. I can't talk much about anything as usual, but I think I will really have a game announced and shipped in the first half of 2008. I'll be sure to point it out to you guys as soon as there's news.
And hey, how about those Dolphins! We had a good chance to go down in history as the worst team in the history of the NFL. Now we're just going to be one of the worst teams ever. Although you never know - maybe we can win 2 games this year. TWO WHOLE GAMES! Meanwhile, the biggest cheaters in the history of the NFL, the Patriots, have a very good chance of going undefeated. Let that be a lesson to you kids - cheaters never win...
Well - that's it for 2007 I'm sure. Maybe Goofy B will ring in the new year, but he's a bit of an enigma wrapped up in a mystery. So yeah. Take care you BuzzJivians. |

So my brother finally married the woman that was kind enough to wait several years for him to do so. It was a busy busy weekend for me - and even more so for him. But at least he's off in the tropics on a sweet honeymoon. I'm stuck back here at home with a sinus cold. YUCK. No fun.
So once again - congradulations. It was a nice wedding. I only wish I had remembered my entire speech, but that's what happens when you don't write anything down and you get a little nervous speaking to a crowd of 100 or so people. When I write on BuzzJive, I have time to think about it - and I know that there's no way 100 people will ever read it. HA.
Other than that, I don't have much else to report. Go buy Call of Duty 4 for the DS to support my company.
BAH - I'm sick. I just wanted to say hi. |
