jameydeeTired. Brain dead. Sometimes I can't believe how much people work at my new company. The graphic artists are there before I come in (between 6:30 AM and 7:00 AM) and are still there when I leave (between 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM). Plus they are there on the weekends!
Our deadlines are stacked so we have projects in every phase -- development, review, beta, final delivery.
In all phases, graphics are being created, tweaked, changed. They've hired more and more artists and more and more developers, but it takes time to bring people up to speed.
So where am I in all this? Tired, people, tired. I'm getting paid decently for a change and getting paid for the extra hours, but I'd rather have my leisure time back! If I can stick to my schedule, I should finish with several days to spare. Then I can experience a brief return to those halcyon days of loafing like I used to have!
Had a thought about the cam lately, something stupid, like running it off-line and uploading the pics at night. Too stupid? Defeating the purpose? I dunno, but I miss having it, I miss the interactivity of the web. Things are locked up tight around here and I want to play it real straight.

Nice to see an update...
Well, sounds like you hit a real development location.... I guess the silver lining is that you aren't bored :) Hope you make you deadline so you can get some nice R&R!
I for one would definately like to see cam grabs from the office (assuming its TOTALLY safe...). It won't make up for the interactivity (which I REALLY REALLY REALLY miss...) but is really just about the same as reviewing a missed day with the VCR; and that was enjoyable.

Well you don't know how good you had it 'till it's gone. Unfortunately I'm gonna find that out soon. This was a great job for me. I had freedom (like Jamey) but all good things must come to an end.
I guess we're all wondering if you've had enough webcam in your lifetime.
Psst, now go write your book!
