Scott is on vacation this week, so I am handling all of the development work at the studio . Rick and Behnje are on their honeymoon so I am teaching all of his tai chi classes, in addition to being the only full-time instructor (other than Master Lee) in Master Lee’s class .

In other words, I am freakin’ busy this week.

And of course this happens just when I spin off a subdomain for the flash adventure game. I can spend hours figuring out data models, noting and then discarding objects and sprites and tile engines and pathfinding algorithms, and never have time to write out a single line of code. It has been like this for a couple of weeks. At this rate I will have completed the game in my head, played it until it bored me, and given it up for something new – all before compiling a single Flash file.

I need a vacation.
