Nightmare time

by Phil Carlisle · 09/24/2006 (2:37 pm) · 10 comments

Well, this last few months have been a complete nightmare. Which is why I havent really been posting so much.

Mainly I've been either working or having to sort out legal issues on buying a house. But its not happening now so I'm basically homeless.

Hopefully when I get back from Eugene things will be a bit simpler and I will get back to full production.

On the upside, we are back to testing Air Ace after too long a break. We have merged MS4 and are working our way through the bug list (well, ok, Thomas is.. my machine isnt exactly work-enabled right now).

Crazy times!

You know, when Jeff said "right size your life", I don't think he meant to go homeless... ;)

I hope you're able to find housing soon.

I can totally envision Phil's picture taking place inside a cardboard hovel... Poor Phil! Maybe we should start a collection for him. :P

Ben: more likely a 120sqft container, which is where all my worldly posessions are right now.

Anyway, I'll get sorted once I get back from Eugene. Just a matter of renting again for a while.

Though we've never met, I read your posts every where Phil. On behalf of the Torque users here in Central Florida, good luck on sorting the muck out. If you want to avoid seasonal changes and stay in a place that is miserably hot year around, we can set you up with a place to rent here =) We haven't had 4 hurricanes in one month in a long time....like...two years. So it's not that bad! Keep us updated on Air Ace!

Hehehe.. thanks guys. Its not really THAT bad. Just puts a bit of a hold on coding matters (not having a PC at my usual desk with 3-4 monitors is really off putting).

I'll be back up and running in a couple of weeks.

Suuuuuure. I bet Phil is in a mansion with 8 computers in front of him playing 8 different WoW characters. He just wants us to THINK he's having troubles so he doesn't have to work.

*cracks the whip*

Now I have a meeting next with two realtors, my mortgage agent, a contractor, a home inspector and two people from the city. And I still don't know If I'm goign to own the house i put in an offer on a month ago...
