Warning of upcoming content


I've been watching a lot of Doctor Who lately; both new series and old (mostly new though). And however ridiculous it sounds, I have thoughts on it that I've trying to organise and work through, so for a while, this blog may be heavily slanted towards that. May include some episode reviews towards that end, too.

Doctor Who workplace

So, it seems that I now work in a TARDIS.  You don't really notice the front of the building unless specifically looking for it, and it seems way bigger on the inside than on the outside.  I wonder if wearing my key-pass around my neck will make me unnoticeable like the TARDIS key did at the end of the new series, year 3.  (Note to self:  test this out.)

Other than that cool fact, it's scary to go back to work after being off!  Everyone was super nice to me though. And even though there isn't any physical exertion, it's tiring.

Games!

Wow, so Steam is having a huge sale right now.  Have a lot of poking around to do.  One that I spend a fair amount of time on is SquareLogic.  Even managed to get members of the family addicted.  The thing is, it looks like a math game, but it's really a logic game.  Most of these sorts are - people just get scared off by the numbers before realising that you could substitute shapes or letters (if the hint pop-up showed what combos you could use in shapes instead of numbers).  But looks like busy times this week, determining if anything cheap enough is something to stock up on for the next few months!

In other strange news, most of my page views are coming from Russia.  It's an incredibly small sample size, but still weird to me.

And in more shallow news...

I'm finally getting around to trying to set up Power Auras to replace some of my other add-ons in World of Warcraft.  If it's done right, Power Auras should replace all timers, indicators, announce missing buffs, alert me to bad stuff, tell me when procs come up, and I know I haven't even gotten into any of the advanced functionality.  Until now, only very basic auras were set up.

I have been wondering whether WeakAuras might be worth checking out, but can't get enough of an idea of the differences from the page I looked at.  Anybody know?
