real life fallout

huh. i was mostly asleep until i walked into work today, and most of the day just kind of passed on by. i guess things are okay, and i'm quite glad that we've got a new guy on board who speaks my language and is supposed to take on a sizable chunk of my responsibilities - freeing me up to do some actual development.

...

i came home relatively early, and after half an episode of the guild pg had dinner ready and we watched the original ghostbusters. by its end it was 10pm, and i should have known better than to get into fallout... hah! two hours flew by and it was suddenly late again.

that game... is... incredible. it's precisely the same as its predecessor, only the perspective and controls make it more personal. it's gorgeous. and its options are as open as can be. and there are so many things to learn! usually the hard way. but it doesn't matter. i kinda see this as a trial run. i haven't figured out my character at all and i really do want to be consistent. i can't explain why.

also, there's something special about standing up with the controller and fighting larger than life-size enemies. with such a massive viewing area, the experience is quite immersive ^_^

i've been the primary user of pg's ipad, so before showering we sat together deleting my accounts and apps and logging her in. tomorrow night will be the last we see of each other for a very long time.
