I'm converting the back end blogging engine from Movable Type to Word press today. This probably isn't interesting at all unless you are into blogging software, movabletype has just become too cumbersome to use. The site will probably have an "in progress" look to it today as I get the new software setup. If you read the site through RSS you will need to update those links. I have the new RSS link up as soon as possible.
The wife said "You need to blog, you haven't written anything in a while." Actually, I've written quite a bit. It's just all been for my Serenity game.
I've been listening to Will Wheaton's "Memories of Futurecast" podcast while cycling latley. It's pretty funny especially if you are a Star Trek fan. The last episode was his recap of "The Long Goodbye." You know the one where Picard dresses up as private eye Dixon Hill and plays an interactive murder mystery on the holodeck. As I was listening it struck me that, according to Star Trek at least, the future of entertainment is LARPing. At the time, that seemed like a pretty big leap, but with interactive entertainment (video games) rapidly over-taking non-interactive entertainment (movies) it doesn't seem so futuristic now. Bottom Line: Holodeck RPGs would be awesome.
We had a pretty busy Memorial Day weekend. Grady and his family came down and we went to Scarborough Fair on Saturday. Our nephew Aiden is a little bundle of energy so we had a great time. I think he rode every animal and pirate ship there was to ride at the fair. That night, we had a cookout/pool party. This is the first Memorial day weekend in a long time where its been warm enough to swim in the pool. Looks like it's shaping up to be a hot summer, it's supposed to top 100 this week.
Sunday afternoon we went over to Phlome and Ninsi's house for another cookout. I feel you can't have too many on Memorial Day. That evening we went out to the Church in Dallas. We seem to make it out about twice a year, Memorial Day and Halloween, which, really is more than enough for me.
Monday morning we managed to drag ourselves out of bed and go for a 30 mile bike ride before it got too hot. We probably could have done more this weekend but I'm not sure how.
