Half a year.

I'm surprised I managed to stick with this, even half-assedly, for six months. Here's some data on what all is going to change around here, with my recent epiphanies.

You may have noticed the change in secondary tagline. That's because it's pretty appropriate for the shift of focus. I am definitely a "working" nerd, as I hold down two or three jobs, depending on how you look at it. Between my full-time job, a side job cooking at a bar, and helping maintain the grounds around here, things get busy. This doesn't even include keeping my own place in decent shape, which really hasn't been happening quite as much lately but I'm working on it.

As for the nerd thing? I want to cover more items, diversify a bit. The Godlike deal may have fallen through, but I've not dropped the idea of a podcast, so it would be nice to have more to talk about than just "Hur hur I got more points this week." The x360a podcast does that already, and it kind of sucks save for the British dude being funny.

So yeah, I'll probably start talking about my other dorky hobbies, like watching anime, reading manga, music geeking, cosplay, and dropping convention reports when I find time to go to them. I'd like to talk about other gaming systems a bit more, too.

The "play every 360 game" project is still on, if in need of a slight reboot and possible scaling back. Right now I've got Conan, Cars: Mater-National, and Chromehounds, and Bioshock's waiting for a finish. Reviews on the first two coming soon, as well as an XBLAW catchup day. Play Rain-Slick Precipice. Do it.

I don't know how on track I might manage to be over the next couple of weeks, since I'm headed out to Vegas next weekend, but we'll try to get back up and running here. Until I have time to post, here's some teasers on forthcoming features.

- Chris Dresses Like A Douche: The Road To AUSA
- For $90, You Too Can Have Nintendo Call You Fat
- BOOTYCON 2008 REPORT (possibly liveblogged if I can leech enough wireless and post from my DS)
