...Or how to claim Mario helps with chemistry.
So I was cruising through a great news-ish site know as Fark.com, and I happened to stumble over this little article. Being the videogame fanatic that I am, I had to click on on immediately. I really had no idea of what to expect - a list of the games from which all videogames could be derived or constructed, a table of the most important characters in videogame history, etc. Instead, I found the table above, laid out like the original periodic table.
While I thought that it was clever overall, I had to wonder how much the creator was just getting tired of trying to match a character/game to an element and started just giving up there toward the end.
In other news, it's been awhile since I last blogged. To explain my absence in blogging, I feel should break it down by the months since my last entry -
September - I attended a conference on PLAY project, specifically to start working on early intervention with children diagnosed with Autism or Austism Spectrum Disorder (Aspergers to PDD - NOS). I will talk more about that in the future as we start to establish it more in the Moscow, ID area.
October - Busy month at work and of course the yearly Halloween party. Our company was expecting a state audit at this time.
November - Holidays and limited staffing meant that many of us in the office had to cover the workers who were leaving.
December - Same as above. Great month though, since my brother was graduating from college with a degree in advertising. Unfortunately, my brother had to move back to home in order to decrease his expenses, so the end of the month was spent in chaos as the family came up here to help him move out.
January - Things started to slow down a bit, but we were still a bit short staffed.
February - It was announced that our company's state audit was going to be the beginning of March. So for the month of February everyone was getting their paperwork in order, training with staff and so on.
March - We had the audit, which was a two day ordeal. Overall, it went pretty well. Sure we had to fix a few things, rename/relabel a few documents to be in compliance from here on. That being said, they have to find problems to report, otherwise it doesn't look like they're doing their job.
So there's my synopsis of life until this point, at least, the business side of my life.
For the fun side, I'm now at almost 11 months of dating my current girlfriend: Misti (you can check her blog out here ). I'm alternating my free time between videogames with my best friend, gaming Monday nights (D&D, D20 modern, etc.), and watching movies and hanging out with Misti. All in all, a very good life at this time.
That's all for now. By the way, let me know what you think about the ESPN box off to the side. I'm still not 100% sold on it.
