Played just a bit of the Diablo 3 open beta this weekend. It's Diablo 2, except prettier and more interactive. I like it. I don't really expect to play it much, because I'm too busy with Star Wars: The Old Republic. But if you liked Diablo 2, it's worth a look. Diablo 3 Beta

Top 7 of 2011
A quick recap of my highlights of 2011, in no particular order… New Yard We blew the big bucks from savings, tore up the weeds that had been pretending to be a lawn and had a landscaper (EWG Dirt Cheap) come in and create something native, environmentally responsible, and easier to take care of. I’ll … Continue reading Top 7 of 2011
Dave and Buster’s
Natasha and I checked out the new Dave and Buster’s gaming restaurant last Saturday afternoon. If you’re looking for something air conditioned to do on a hot, steamy afternoon in Orlando (for about $25 a person or so) it’s not a bad stop. Dave and Buster’s is basically the giant collision of a restaurant/bar, a … Continue reading Dave and Buster’s
What Greasy Eggs Can Teach You
Every day now, I make myself an omelet. Couple of free range eggs, with some ham, usually, and some cheese. Cooked in butter, because fat is good for you, despite what THEY say. Get the surface of the eggs a little golden brown in spots and it’s totally yummy. Today, being Mom’s Day, while I … Continue reading What Greasy Eggs Can Teach You
More Thoughts on the Cataclysm Beta
EDIT: Lost my Picasa album when I reinstalled the WoW Cataclysm client, so the Picasa links won't exactly work right. Finally hit a point with the Worgen in Cataclysm where I find the story got interesting. It's kind of hard to judge without the animated cut-scenes in place, but the early story really didn't grab … Continue reading More Thoughts on the Cataclysm Beta
Harry Potterland at Universal
Went to see Harry Potterland at Universal yesterday. (Okay, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter...really?) The detail that went into building the place is amazing! Take a look at the pics I posted to see. You definitely step into the world when you get to the land, which is something I've felt about most of … Continue reading Harry Potterland at Universal
World of Warcraft Cataclysm Beta
EDIT 09/12/2009 - When I reinstalled the WoW Cataclysm Client it messed up my syncing with my Picasa gallery, so I lost the pics that were up there. I've restarted posting pics up there. So I'm lucky enough to be in the beta for the new World of Warcraft expansion, Cataclsym. So far, it's been … Continue reading World of Warcraft Cataclysm Beta
One of those Veggie Melt Days
Yesterday, I went to the cafeteria downstairs where I work to grab something for lunch at my desk. It was just one of those days, you know, where you give up and eat lunch at your desk. I stopped at the display of food at the cafeteria entrance, trying to decide on something fake-healthy for … Continue reading One of those Veggie Melt Days
Two Ends of the Animated Spectrum: The Avatar and the Frog
Over the last two weekends, I did something I hardly ever do nowadays. I went to the movies. I don't have kids, and generally I have time to go. For me, not going to the theater is all about the quality of the experience. Netflix and a reasonably nice TV trumps a crappy quality version … Continue reading Two Ends of the Animated Spectrum: The Avatar and the Frog
Super Elastic Blog Plastic
If my blog looks a little odd for a bit, it's because I'm working on a new design using the Elastic Editor. Fun to play with and I'm learning things, too.
