Back to work again...

terryclothThe weekend didn't really seem all that long. But then, it never does, afterwards. Not even if I stretch it out to two weeks.
Also, my lead is back from vacation, so I have to think about how much work I look like I'm doing, again.
Apparently, one of the big announcements at WWDC was Apple deprecating Quickdraw. For the last month or so, I've been working at converting drawing from quickdraw over to core graphics, so, yay! Kinda.
There was a Shadowrun game yesterday, that I 'forgot' to do a summary for, because there wasn't really much to summarize: we met a guy in a bar, got a job, got attacked by the world's stupidest gangbangers (They pulled a switchblade on Ed's street samurai. A *switchblade*. While he was holding an assault rifle.), killed them all, then drove to a haunted factory. Tune in next week, for the exciting warehouse scene!
And, I've been playing a lot of Front Mission 4. It's fun, so far, although the last simulator mission I tried was depressing. 12 enemies with rifles, that (for once) all converge and attack you at the same time, and have an uncanny ability to hit your torso every time and do double damage, without appearing to activate any skills. My own rifle guy does the same thing quite often, to be fair, but I only have one of him right now.
I got my butt kicked -- good thing it was only in the imaginary simulator, instead of being a real imaginary battle!
