Daily rituals

10:10 AM - Explain to yet another FedEx guy that no, Tania doesn't actually live here any more. (This has happened, I swear, at least ten times in the three weeks or so we've been here.)

11:05 AM - Explain to yet another recruiter what the difference is between a games programmer and a tools programmer. Make the usual lame jokes about commuting, whilst secretly hoping that I can find one HELL of a good short cut if I'm going to be commuting to the Valley every day.

11:15 AM - Fight off desperate urge to play solitaire instead of job hunting.

Repeat until employed, dead, or certifiably insane....

I recommend an MP3 of 'Carrie doesn't live here anymore' (suitably doctored) and Mike's Cards Lite instead of solitaire.

Solitaire?

Rather worryingly for productivity, I noticed this week that Apeiron has just been ported to Mac OS X. I seem to remember losing several years in the mid-90s to Apeiron...

I've seen some of Ambrosia's stuff before... in the interest of getting anything else at all done today, I am NOT clicking on that link. Right now, anyway.

[The second FedEx guy to show up today was actually a FedEx lady. That'll teach me to use sexist language in my journal...]
