Terra Springtime
I whipped up a little banner for TerraNova today — they’re switching out their old “winter” banner for something new, and asked for submissions for a new banner image. I’m not sure that they’ll like mine, but what the hell, I have Photoshop and some pretty pictures of flowers on my hard drive, so I gave it a shot. Click on the image above to see a bigger version, if you feel like it!
In other, random news:
I found The Lost Treasures of Infocom II at the thrift store for $1 yesterday. I already have all these games in other formats, but it’s still a thrill to find something like this at the thrift.
It sounds like the season finale of Battlestar Galactica was rather ridiculous. Rather than spoil anything specific (and I haven’t even seen the second half of this past season yet, anyway), I’ll just say that the show sounds like it’s veering into DS9 territory for me — an interesting overarching story arc plagued by weird season-ending showboating. Which, of course, will eventually all be reset by the middle of next season, just like it was in seasons 2 and 3.
Hi there. I’ve been reading your blog regularly since you changed the format. I am interested, intrigued, stimulated and fascinated even though I know next to nothing about gaming and sometimes those references go right over my head. I am also paralyzed with the realization of how far I am from who I used to be. I wish I discussed the structure of genre tv instead of just being relieved to watch something other than Sesame Street (although I never miss an episode of Lost). I even sometimes wish I was whipping up banners for websites instead of using photoshop to digitally scrapbook baby pictures. Meh. But at least I can stop by this site and get a fix of some intellectual discourse.
Thanks for throwing me into a premature midlife crisis. And I’m sorry for such a long whiny comment post but I couldn’t find a link to your email so there you go.
Hey, are you née Greenberg? If so, sorry about the premature midlife crisis and all. If you’re some other Meredith, I’m not as sorry, but still sorry somewhat.
Oh, and TerraNova didn’t pick my banner submission. Oh well, the one that won was much prettier anyhow.
Yes I am formerly Greenberg, thanks.
