Literal Barrage:archives

Fear not, long-suffering readers, for lo!, I am yet alive. I’ve been reliving the last week each of the last three, namely: working ’til around 1am Monday and Tuesday followed up by general craziness with church-related stuff Wednesdays and Thursdays and then, more likely than not, time off on Fridays.
Things have calmed down for [...]

So it’s readily apparent that my blog output has been woeful as of late. I could come up with a litany of excuses as to why this is so, but truth be told, it’s been a case of my heart not being in it.
Suffice it to say that Real Life Concerns have been weighing [...]

Regular readers will have noticed that updates have been, well, sporadic around these parts. There’s a very good reason for this: September 4th marked my 7th anniversary at my company; September 5th, I was offered a new job. Monday was my last day at my old company, which I’ve always declined to mention, as [...]

I know it — I’m due for an update here. Maybe tomorrow.

Day 1: Saturday, March 8th

Scooted over from home to my parents’ place to hop a [...]

Regular readers will no doubt have noticed that this site is undergoing some visual changes. I had grown tired of the old look and thus am undertaking a bit of a rehabbing. There are all sorts of nits to fix (the archives page doesn’t work correctly, for instance) and I felt that I [...]

A very happy New Year to all my readers (you know who you three are… *grin*). I hope yours was a good celebration — ours was spent with friends who left early (but not before I addicted them to the Wii) and then Dick Clark, as per tradition. I admire the man for his [...]

I’ve dropped the hammer on a couple of new t-shirt designs, available immediately over at gear.literalbarrage.org. The idea for the shirt (“Don’t Tickle Me, Bro!”) sprang forth from a lunchtime conversation last week and I’m pretty psyched with how they look.
