Since yesterday was a bit special, I chose to post about my recent lessons learned from a touch of failure instead of my weekly Monday Reset Button. Because every Monday, I try to look toward the next week with a clean slate, and I still did that. I just didn’t write about it, so I’m…

Yeah, most people hate Mondays, but I guess that’s a weird benefit of working two unconventional jobs. Mondays are pretty consistently one of my days off, so I really look forward to it, especially since I’ve decided that, on Mondays, I wipe the slate clean, so to speak, and embark on a few new and…

In light of the new King’s Quest game being absolutely incredible and stirring up all the old obsessiveness of my younger self (the one who would try to turn our farm into a live-action KQ game and force my little brother to play it), I started doing a “Daily KQ” thing on my Tumblr, where…

Someone made a flippant comment the other day that 2016, as a number and a year, was just weird. This stuck with me a little bit, and, after some consideration, I have to agree. It’s hard to find a certain finesse or appeal to the numbers themselves as a whole, and it got me thinking…
