Today is my birthday which makes it the twenty fourth time that this event has occurred. I figured now is as good as time as any to look back on the past year of my life. I think I've made some progress both professionally and personality.
I do think that I've come somewhat out of my introverted shell this past year in no small part due to this blog. With two followers on it I'm scheduled to have another one in maybe 6 months as it seems to be happening. Thanks to Steam my friend's list is filled with people eager to kick my ass in L4D and Team Fortress 2 , which I'm now using my mic a lot more to let people hear my wonderful...ish voice. I might even start posting on a few forums with my real name (a shock I know).
Professionally while I can't say that I'm thrilled about my current working status, I'm at least happy that I'm working at all now. I'm continuing to write up my game ideas and will be keeping up with Corvus' round table each month which a new one should be ready this week. With the Philadelphia IGDA group I'm planning on attending the next meeting and hopefully taking part in the game jam again. About work, while it is boring and not my chosen profession it still feels really, really good to finally have money coming in.
So that just about does it for today, while this hasn't been my best birthday I've ever had, at least it beats the time I was almost killed twice on my birthday; which obviously there is an interesting story behind that statement :)
