It’s been a while since I posted a bit of randomness. Recent favorites:

In case you’re wondering why it’s been so long since my last update, I can provide a perfectly reasonable explanation….
Thanks to one of my fellow Thumbmonkey bloggers, I am now completely addicted to WoW. It’s my first shot at a MMORPG, and i’ve got to admit, I’m thoroughly enjoying the experience. If you’ve been on the fence about whether it’s worth the money, I can assure you, it is. The real question is: do you have time to accommodate another addiction (that is, assuming you already have some, and yes, T.V. counts).
Here I am (in WoW!):
Yeah, this is for reals my real WoW toon!
Awesome.
I’ll update at a later date with more impressions of the game, pros & cons, that kind of thing.
‘Til next time,

Hello!
I would like to reassure our blog-readers that the recent flooding of the Charles River did not drown us all, so, you can stop worrying now.
However, it did wash up this AWESOME megalodon.
It’s true.

Being in Waltham has been a bit more adventuresome this week, thanks to the weather and the Charles River. We’ve been enjoying the new found water-front view by our office so far:
The stairs on the side of our office building -- luckily, we don't use these.
My feeeet....notice where the railing ends.
Slowly starting to drain the next day...
The water level came right up to under the bridge!
Starting to see that plow in the background emerge after some draining. This is our lovely bike path.

Oh, hi! It’s been a while, so here’s an update on some things i’ve been up to…
My Breakup with Fallout 3 (AKA I <3 you, Borderlands)
It’s official. Fallout 3 and I are separating. F3, I just want you to know that I still love you, but i’m not in love with you. I know you’re pretty upset about Borderlands, but it just has so much more going on than you do. It challenges me in a way you never could. I know you’ll miss me, but a tryst, perhaps sometime soon, can be arranged. Maybe.
An obsession with the iPod Touch
If you don’t have one (iPhone works, too), seriously, get one. I didn’t realize how awesome it was until I developed this on-going infatuation. I have not gone a single day in months now without playing at least a few minutes worth of something on it. My current favorite games include Orbital, Bejeweled 2 (particularly Blitz), Plants vs. Zombies, Scrabble & Sneezies. Just got some new earbuds for music listening, too, and the sound quality is not too shabby! Also, they’re blue, and blue is way prettier than the dumb white ones that come with it.
It’s almost Spring!
Yes, this does qualify as something i’ve been up to. Thanks for noticing. But, really, i’m excited for some warm weather & seeing plants in bloom. Aren’t you? Or maybe you live in California or Florida or somewhere all nice and toasty and don’t care. In which case, boo. Boo @ you.

It takes a lot of something to make a life-sized Big Daddy from Bioshock with a chainsaw. What that something is I can’t quite put my finger on. Patience? Talent? Way too much free time?

Motion-tracking 3D on a DSi? This is quite cool. Here’s hoping that this type of thing is used properly in future games and isn’t just a novelty.

A floating cat. We, at Thumbmonkey, officially approve of its awesomeness.

A LEGO MMO? There’s no way this can end well. Right?
Uh-oh, this video has me interested. I won’t cave, I won’t. Well, maybe it won’t be ALL bad.
