Mass Effect Was #EPIC

July 31, 2015

I started it several months ago.

I had a feeling I would enjoy playing Mass Effect.

This past Winter I snagged Mass Effect on the cheap from Steam. A few months after, I found Mass Effect 2 in an awesome Humble Bundle.

After two friends of mine highly recommend that I take a crack at it, I started Mass Effect after completing the Half-Life series.

Away from Instagram and Back Again

July 17, 2015

Instagram has been an interesting journey these past few years.

When we got our first iPod, Instagram was the new awesome app and social network. We started before it was available for Android, so we felt pretty hip. 😛

I say, we, because it was the first and only Instagram enabled device in the house. And since my wife and I didn’t want to flip a coin to see who would have the Instagram account, we attempted to share it.

Why I Am Trying to Avoid Fanboyism

June 3, 2015

My next computer might not be an Apple.

I know, it’s sounds crazy, but I’ve been really trying to think everything through.

“Fanboyism” is a very powerful groupthink dynamic and I don’t want to be sucked into it—again.

I remember when I made the switch from Windows to Apple. I became that person that said they would never go back, but alas, here I am entertaining the idea.

The Secret to My Success

April 30, 2015

Earlier this month, my heart was struck with great joy and sadness.

While both of these seem like polar opposites, both events struck a chord with me in the same way. A lesson in life that I try to remind myself all the time.

Let me start with the sadness…

Don, the man that gave me my first job, died this month.

Half-Life: Series Complete

March 20, 2015

I went several years without gaming.

There were several factors as to why I stopped (which I may write about in the future), and it’s been a lot of fun getting back into it these past several months.

The last game I ever played as a true gamer was Half-Life.

So when I began to venture back into the video gaming world, jumping on a sweet deal from Steam for the entire Half-Life series seemed fairly poetic.

Challenge Accepted

March 9, 2015

At the end of 2014, I took a long shot.

I saw a job opening on the Church Relevance website and thought I would drop my name into the running.

Having read the job description, I figured I could handle it and their overall mission was very curious to me.

With a mention to it being a “telecommuting position,” the choice was easy. So, I followed through with the application process.

Never Disconnected

February 25, 2015

The weekend before last, we all loaded up into our car and drove down to Scerni, Italy.

The six hour drive took us back to a place where we lived for 4-years and it had been about a year since we had been back.

It was a great trip.

Me and the Mrs. enjoyed it.

The kids enjoyed it.

And their grandparents enjoyed it.

Here are some of the photos I snagged and shared on my Instagram:

Human Bandwidth

February 20, 2015

Since the beginning of the month, my life has been nothing but crazy.

Between starting a new job, recovering from being sick, landing a few new projects, and a quick weekend trip with the family, my human bandwidth has been maxed-out.

I’ve known there to be limits, but have never really experienced it like this before.

The Unreal Engine 4 Demo is Unreal [Video]

February 11, 2015

I am still in a little “shock and awe” of modern video gaming since being away from it for several years.

Even as I finally play through the Half Life episodes, I am regularly impressed with the visuals, storytelling, and overall immersed experience.

It really is tons of fun. 😀

So when I see what video game graphic guys are doing with the very cutting edge, I am a little dumbfounded…

Lots of snow.
