I am a creature of habit and there are certain things I do every day without fail. Looking back over my routine, quite a few things I do every day... Feed Suji her breakfast (usually live-streamed) Check the new kpop releases so I can... Upload my first tweet of the day - featuring a kpop…

June 18, 2022: Apologies and deathbed well-wishes!
I want to kick off today's blog entry with an apology to user "weight loss recovery" whose comment was inadvertently flagged as spam and ended up in the trash folder - Your words of encouragement are greatly appreciated as I strive to ensure this website live up to its awful potential. I'd also like to…
June 17, 2022: The Pitch! How’d it go? Who knows?!
Aside from a brief mental lapse in which I momentarily forgot a character's name, today's pitch went really well. Confident, not rushed. I distilled the richly detailed 12+ hours of game play down to a two hour feature format by streamlining the main narrative, compressing some of the timelines, and stripping away the side quests…
June 16, 2022: Pitch on deck!
Tomorrow, I pitch my vision for the big screen adaptation of that awesome 2021 sci-fi game. It's one of those rare instances where I'm actually looking forward to a zoom call, in this case because I know I have a fantastic take. I am confident, not necessarily that I'll land the gig, but that if…

Yes, it's true. I'm putting it to a vote. Do I delete or keep my linkedin profile? Its fate rests in your hands! https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1535686815105130499 Seriously, just say you don't want to hang out instead of coming up with lame dietary excuses.

June 10, 2022: Out and About!
Akemi had a hankering for pasta so, today, we ended up making the trek to Famiglia Baldassarre for lunch. Our timing was off and we ended up arriving a half hour before open - which was just as well since a line had already started to form. So we killed time chatting with the couple…

June 2, 2022: Let’s see how it goes!
Today's zoom call about that video game feature adaptation went well. I've got 2-3 weeks to come up with a killer take that will blow their socks off. I could probably do it in 1, but I don't want to seem overly eager. There's a lot of world and a lot of story to cover…
