(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Wow, what a week it has been! On Sunday I had mostly a “day off” where I worked on client work, worked on transferring stuff over to my new laptop (I brought both with me), and did my normal weekly GTD group chat. On Monday it was client work, client work, client [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Hi All, So my check engine light came on as I left the PAGDIG meeting on Thursday night but I was hoping that by Friday when I restarted my car and it had sat for awhile it would just go away. On Friday, it didn’t but by the time I had gotten [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Today was a slow day. I spent most of today catching up on the work I missed yesterday from the lunch and PAGDIG meeting as well as doing client calls, setting up plans to meet other Portlandians (Portlandites? Portlanders?), and taking care of the still adorable Thomas. In between walks with Thomas [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Today started off splendidly as I met the aforementioned Eric and the awesome Corvus Elrod for lunch. They wanted to show me all the food carts/trucks that Portland has to offer, or at least one set of them – the town is pretty big. (Josh Tsui, aka @robojoshy would be so jealous!) [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Hi All, Another day of driving today, this time I headed from Medford up to Portland, Oregon. I’ll be staying in Portland for over a week so it should give me a good chance to work, visit local game devs, and enjoy the change of scenery. When I finally arrived to my [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Hi All, Today is a big day, but first – yesterday! So yesterday Brett and I said goodbye to our friends Corey and Erin Stisser and their little furry friends Gavin (see below), Zoey, and Larry. Just like with John Walker, both Brett and I had worked with Corey and when Corey [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) First of all, I’d like to extend my thanks to the amazing people at the IGDA’s Salt Lake City (SLC) chapter.  Josh Jones and the coordinators were gracious hosts and I was honored to be asked to speak. I had a wonderful time getting to know more about the dev culture in [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Oh my! So I woke up this morning with a headache and stuffed up sinuses and said to my husband “It feels like I’ve been sleeping on down pillows all night.” Turns out after a quick check of the pillows, I had been. See in the past when I had stayed at [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Welcome back all, Due to our late start yesterday today’s drive was going to be a long one. Our goal was to try and make it all the way to Cheyenne. That meant getting out of Iowa, making it through Nebraska, and entering Wyoming all in one day. Nebraska (which apparently a [...]

(Cross-posted from sherirubin.com.) Hi All, Today I start my big road trip heading west across the country. I’ll be speaking at some IGDA chapters, visiting friends and colleagues, and trying to learn more about the game development scene around various parts of the US (I hope to do more parts of the world later). When [...]
