The Patent Dragon's Zone of Soul Retraction

I was going to post a widget for my latest Steam purchase, but it wouldn't work, so I'm now stuck for something to post tonight. Yeah, I'm that desperate...

...well, not really, but I have little to report, beyond the ongoing preparations for ...Stargazer Season 2, and of course there will be more videos posted tomorrow - I'll be "double-timing" the Season 1 videos just to clear the way for the imminent new material.

Oh, hold on, here's something...

(Marvel's) Agents of SHIELD - 8pm, Channel 4... in ONE WEEK.

Drop-everything TV, I'm thinking.

Woke up early.
Found draughty gaps in the NEW "Office" windows.
Knocked my external hard drive onto the floor - but thankfully didn't (apparently) bugger it.
And still found time to get the room ready for redecoration...

Surprised I found time to pack for tomorrow!

In the meantime, something FUN:



Just what I need to keep my screwed-up day going.

Hard drive space concerns have been dealt with*, even though that ate a chunk of the last day of my "long weekend" I *gasp* did manage to get some writing done - as in finally typing up a chunk of the latest Mane-of-Night story. I really need to do more writing, but I'm just not in that groove right now. PLEASE can we get these damn windows sorted so I can FINALLY get organised? It's nearly TWO YEARS since we moved!!!

(*I was going to place a reservation on a 3TB desktop HD at Argos, but noooo, it's not in stock, 'cause it's "discontinued". Oh great - too late on the deal that made this item cheaper than two of the 1TB portable models I just got for video management. Typical...)

Elsewhat... Yay - the Budget has something for me! Income tax will only be charged after the first £10,000 sooner than previous planned! Probably means I won't be getting many more refunds, though.

Also... there's a new Doctor Who trailer. A week and a half to go!

Hmph. My first attempt to post a proper game video fell foul of the non-verified account's video length limit - another one of those things that really isn't very well documented, like... well, a good deal of the important stuff. Anyway, this gives me a chance to fine-tune a bunch of stuff - although it doesn't give me back the broadband bandwidth expended in the failed posting attempt.

Talking about game videos, Saints Row The Third is making me wish I did more recording, 'cause I had an incredible gaming experience on Sunday - blasting police vehicles with a rocket launcher from the passenger seat of a speeding car! I am starting to get to grips with this game - and it is FUN. I have a plan, and perhaps THAT will find its way onto YouTube. However, recording these things takes up hard drive space...

...a lot.

Okay...

...how about THIS?



Early days, certainly, but the result isn't too bad.
