Welcome back Me,

After over a year of taking a break from blogging, forum posting, virtual networking etc, I welcome myself back.

Before picking brains on some interesting things, this post is about listing things worth listing that happened to me since last time I blogged. In no particular order:


  • I gained 12 pounds. (Too much beer and cheese, must cut down on it), I’m now 30 + and time to start taking health a bit more seriously :)

  • I changed my day job from making and shipping games, called production, to research and prototyping new game ideas, called Incubation.

  • My son, started to sit, crawl, walk, run, talk and break everything that he can.

  • Travelled to India and spent time in Jaipur, Delhi, Bhopal, Dibrugarh and Calcutta, celebrated my son’s first birthday with his grandparents (both mines and Tanu’s side of parents)

  • I played 19 Xbox 360 games and out of that completed 9 of them earning only 1890 gamer score. Batman Arkum Ayslum, Trials HD, Shadow Complex, Forza 3 and COD MF 2 were some of the games that stood out.

  • Still did not buy a PS3, will wait for God of War 3 to release.

  • Repaired a broken toilet, a broken tap, a broken door knob and a broken toy

  • Learnt how to clean the house more effectively, this one deserves a full article for itself. More later

  • Added 7 new board games to my collection. Stone Age still being my all time favorite.

  • Formatted and clean installed my laptop with 6 different Win 7 builds, while it was in development. In process became a fan of the OS. “Bagwan ke ghar der hai, andher nahi”, Finally Microsoft shipped an OS (other than XP, SP2) that I think is worth being called an OS.

  • Did not change my mobile phone, still using Blackjack (Samsung), yes not using an I-Phone :)

  • Only watched 1 movie in a movie theater.
