stress comes from multiple angles right now. work is taxing, but not eating up that many hours of the day. we are crunching a bit here and there, but overall, something has certainly changed this year and thus far things are really going quite well.

the majority of my stress comes from what everyday is looking less and less like a house hunt and more like a loft hunt. right now, melissa and i are considering a loft apartment near downtown. the concept is aluring, i mean, i have wanted to live in a loft-style dwelling for years. i was looking for them when i moved here, and couldn't find anything. well, this company has renovated a building into 20 units across the second and third floors. they are not all that large, but the units on the third floor sport 15-20 foot ceilings, more than enough to accomidate a loft-within-loft for the bedroom (or bedspace) as it were. one of the more interesting parts of this idea is the fact that we would be designing and having the space built out to our spec, and the floors are concrete.

so this is adult-type stress, something that i don't really like. it makes me feel older than i feel most of the other times in my life. i mean my work is making games, and i will always be as a kid in how i deal with other people (declaring "i'm a ninja" despite evidence to the contrary). and of course, my fixating personality does nothing to aid in this, but i know that it is the right time and with the right person to be making these kinds of decisions. now to make it all come together.

step 1: get the details worked out.
step 2: all the rest.
