The enormity of the decision hasn't settled in yet, and probably won't for quite a while.  But there it is -- the next big step in life. Whew. http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2008/02/20/and-baby-makes-three/ That figures. I finally get up the creative "oomph" to start making weekly comics again, and then I go and get terribly sick. So much for keeping IG's Friday updates, at least for this week. Oh well... guess I'm off to rest, then maybe later I can ... http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2008/02/15/not-so-happy/ This one totally caught me off guard, but as I was looking around on Amazon, I saw that the new Sarah Brightman album was out!  I loves me some Sarah, so I downloaded it on the spot.  I'm listening to it right now over the television -- it's great that ... http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2008/02/06/happiness/ In just over a week, Brandi and I will be celebrating our 3rd anniversary (on the 21st, to be precise).  Now, the only problem is deciding a way how to celebrate.  Last night, I suggested we take a trip to Orlando to go to Universal Studios (which we both greatly ... http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2008/01/12/dinner-and-a-movie/ The Jacksonville Jaguars are playing the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC wildcard game tonight.  It's halftime right now, and so far, the Jags are whoopin' up on the Steelers, 21-7.  I hope they keep it up, 'cause I really want to see them play the Patriots next week.  That'll be ... http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2008/01/05/j-a-g-s-jags-jags-jags/ I couldn't think of a proper title, as this post doesn't really concern anything.  Just thought I'd pop in. Just posted the new InnerGeek, which really isn't new at all.  I feel kind of bad for letting the comic slide, but with UPS getting its annual avalanche of shipments for the ... http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2007/12/15/amberbock/ Poor lil' bloggie, I've forgotten all about you, haven't I? Moving to the new apartment, the busy holiday season, and far too many good video games have really taken up a lot of my time recently.  At least with the games, I'll have review material for Way of the Geek. I recently ... http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2007/11/23/neglect/ Every Monday, I expect to get an Email saying that it's my week to work on the Kids Book Project.  If you don't know how it works, here's the skinny.  Nearly sixty top webcomickers have been recruited to work on a book, whose proceeds will go to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.  ... http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2007/08/19/the-kids-book-project-vacations-over/ Even though I was less than a hundred bucks from having enough to get my new TV, I caved and bought it anyway. I bought a 26" Sanyo LCD for about five-hundred at Wal*Mart. I got home, hooked it up, and after a bit of set-up, I got ... http://wayofthegeek.org/blogs/shawn-m/2007/08/17/the-tv-is-here/
