I guess I’m supposed to tell you all what’s up, but the answer is, as always: not a lot. It’s amazing how quickly the weeks go by when your schedule doesn’t change completely every three months anymore. Anyhow, work is good. We had a really successful launch earlier in the week, so my stress level has gone down a little, at least until crunch time hits again.

Warcraft is good. I’m 57 with my main now, but I’ve been spending some time with my alts, so I don’t know when I’ll actually get to 60. I’m definitely playing less than I did when I first got the game, but it’s still a lot of fun. What I do pretty frequently now is just join up with some guildmates and mess with the gold farmers for a while at their favorite farming spots. We’ll just take the entire thing over and drive them to another one, but then we’ll take that one over too. It’s a lot of fun, and they generally call us names in other languages.

The new NIN single: I didn’t like it at all the first time I heard it, but it’s grown on me. And yes, I’ve seen the rehearsal footage. The sound isn’t a live recording, so it’s hard to tell what the song will be like on tour, but it’s nice to see they all have the same haircut, I guess.
