@Alex: I can imagine a HR Women Pin Up Calendar :)

@Mark: Um, yeah, that was hypothetical of course *passes a twenty dollar note*, On the other hand, I did meet her at a party… although I don’t think I mentioned my long and fabled career.

“It’s cool to impress girls at parties, but in the end what counts is what you’re doing.”

I think what you’re saying hre is that this is something you’ve heard works for OTHER people, right? Because, obviously, you’re happily in love and would not need to impress any girls at any parties, or really, any girls anywhere. Speaking of which, congrats on the five months!

[I'm not sure I did that all right -- is that what you wanted? When do I get my $20?]

No, I didn’t know that. Funny how things go. Both very different choices and career paths, yet we’re both almost equally far away from ‘home’ as each other.

It’s a pity I can’t point you to a blog of my significant other. I’ve had enough trouble getting her to go on to facebook :) – Her specialty is HR though, so I don’t think it would have been as exciting as Raccoon’s.

@Darius: It’s cool to impress girls at parties, but in the end what counts is what you’re doing.

@Thad: Yes, and I now even have the grey hair to prove it :)

@Alex: I didn’t know that… My initial response was ‘no’, did you know that? Who knows what might have happened had we made different choices. In the end, the past is… past, no matter what Faulkner says,

So it’s also 18 years ago that you said ‘yes’ to them and I said ‘no’. A decision I’ve regretted for almost 15 years.

Congratulations nonetheless :)

18 years? I guess that makes you an old man of the games industry. A veteran. Congratulations. :)

Less meaningless?

And congrats on your other anniversary :)
