Bigger, stronger, faster, smarter…

I’ve hit that much coveted point with my kids.  PARK AGE.  They’re all in a place now where I can take them to the park and set them free to play.  To make née friends and generally do “kid stuff” for a couple hours here and there.  I don’t have to continually watch for fights, or spend time hovering around the smallest to be sure he doesn’t haul off and slug someone else’s angel.  I still keep them in view, still keep an eye on them, but it’s much less stressful a thing than it once was.

It is as close to perfect a situation as I could imagine.  The still-closeness of child and parent with just a touch of space to free both sides of the equation.

First Impressions.

So I have to wonder about my impressions. I work in games and
entertainment yet when i go to one of these little meetings to
investigate a new ip I always feel like i’m getting funny looks. I
dress nice for these things, I came from an industry where appearances
were indicative of your seriousness and competence. So when I dress
“casual”. (for me, that is) I still end up overdresses for the room.
I can’t help but wonder if I’m being taken seriously. Someday I shall
have to do the experiment and wear jeans and ripped tie dye to see if
things loosen up a bit.
