TOE week 19: No body asked for this.



                A day off? What is that? I try to think of this project as going to work but I can’t work on it every day. As much as I would like or not like to depending on the day. Sometimes it is really hard to work on this project when I am at home and could easily just piss off and do other things. Other times it is like, oh man I would really love to throw some code down at this exact moment but I have to feed my kid, or take him to baby class/ PT. I take my son to baby class and someone there gets him sick and the next two days are just a shit show. This then makes subsequent days into a wash. He is miserable I’m miserable and the last thing I want to do is type up my ‘producer e-mail’ that is this blog. 

                I was only really able to get in two days worth of work this week. It was a broken up two days but a solid level of work was done. I like the work I did for the most part but am disappointed with my time management. When I was actually paid to do this sort of thing I was really good at managing time. Game studios are ALWAYS running late but I never was. I had a producer tell me “I am aware that these dates I have given you are impossible but I have to have something in the calendar.” My response that I didn’t say was ‘challenge excepted’.  Not only did I meet that date but I was a week ahead of it, also I didn’t crunch for it either.  Contrast that with now. I can’t even make my imaginary dates. No one is asking for this thing I am making. 

                Whatever I have to go my son is hungry. Here is a thing I painted.
