It's about time

Oh my wow it's been a while since I got to sit down and write one of these. I've been meaning to blog for a couple of jobs now so that means almost two months now.

So what is there to catch up on? 90% of the time I usually try to keep this blog geared towards my hobbies so lets just continue to keep that vibe going until something just pops up.

I have a second "nerd" blog that I've meant to upkeep and by looking at the last date, its been since June 4th since I've updated it last. It's something that I want to get back to doing on on a normal basis. Personally I feel that I have expanded out how I see the nerd world and hopefully I can bring a lot back into it. Work really has played a large part as to how and when I update my blogs. When I'm at work I just can't always seem to find the time and when I can finally get some time, nothing is relevant anymore so this mentality will play a large role as I get back into "Nurdgasmic" and how it will evolve. As of this moment in time I've got plans set to return to it in December.

In my own social media life I find myself all over the place. I'm on facebook, here, twitter, occasionally returning to myspace, and now logging into my deviantart almost as much as I do facebook. My deviant art page has served as an avenue to explore my own creativity no matter how dark or light hearted it is.

Speaking of my own creativity, I posted on my facebook, maybe a month or two back, about a fan driven project I wanted to work on. The premise was simple, I would provide two different stories I wanted to pursue and by friend vote decide which to create for a website. The two ideas I presented were TMNT and Masters of the Universe vs Thundercats. I only got back two hits of feedback. TWO! And the idea was tied down the middle.

The TMNT story line would cover the origin of the four turtles and cover the Fugitoid War with the Triceratons and then throwing in Shredder, the Krang, villains we know and love, with a few other extreme dynamics. The story would cover not only the turtles growing up into who they are but also finding out about a fifth turtle and also survive by taking away the one thing they cherish most, Splinter. So that was option number one.

Option two was a fan driven story of the Masters of the Universe vs the Thundercats. In order to do this story I needed an avenue or a reason for them to clash. Long story short, nothing served better than Mum-Ra finally finding a away to destroy the Thundercats, by obtaining the Sword of Power of Eternia. This story was just simply a nerd fest.

Sadly I didn't proceed with either option because of the lack of opinions and maybe that's why I'm posing this here now.

Lastly, I've rededicated to write my own works that I have procrastinated on for YEARS. Yes, its about time and what the hard part is finally putting it to paper. I've waited and waited for the right equipment to go into production. EXPENSIVE equipment just for the sake if keeping it all digital which was a proclamation I made a couple years ago, to keep everything as green as possible. Well, right now it's as green as it can be, but you can't take ideas from your head and expect people to appreciate them, so now moving forward I'm gonna pick the pencil back up again. ....again. Oh yeah, and put together a website. That's on my list of things to do when I get home.

And that's pretty much everything almost everything I'm stewing on right now. Hopefully I can get back to blogging on a regular basis. Maybe I'll stop being lazy, stop playing Halo, and take all that extra time I have to myself at home and be productive.

Only time will tell.

Pat!
