Hey guys remember blog memes?

I haven’t done one of these in forever, but I was tagged by the lovely Jaedia to answer ten questions.  Here we go!

1. What are you looking forward to this year?
Flying to Washington to visit family in a few months, and hopefully (no guarantees) working out the relevant visa stuff and getting my British fiance to hop the pond for good! 😀

2. What is your favourite book/book series/author?
This question is a big toughie.  I think I’ll have to go with Watership Down as my favorite book (duh), although a big honorable mention goes to The Golden Compass, which was far and away the best part of the His Dark Materials series.  Author is tough.  Asimov maybe?  Also William Gibson is utterly brilliant.

3. Are you on Twitter? If no, why not? If yes, what has been your experience?
I am indeed on Twitter, in fact I probably tweet too much.  I do find online socializing (like all forms of socializing) to be a bit exhausting at times so sometimes I take short breaks or tweet much less than usual for a few days or weeks.  However I always seem to come crawling back.  I have a lot of friends on Twitter!

4. Do you enjoy podcasting as a medium? Why/why not?
I think it’s a neat idea although I admit I don’t really listen to any podcasts right now.  Sidenote: who would listen if myself and Mister Adequate (aka Mr. Pike) were to make a podcast about vidya gaems?  It’s an idea we’ve been tossing around a little bit.

5. What do you feel games are lacking in 2015?
Does “a positive community” count?  I love games but oftentimes I find the community surrounding them to be intimidating.

6. Where do you get your game news?
Honestly, Twitter, mostly.  With a dash of RockPaperShotgun and various internet forums.

7. Could you show us a picture of your desk? If you say no, I’ll be sad.
Oh lord.  Okay, but keep in mind that I’m recovering from surgery so it’s a mess and also riddled with pills.

The view is better up top!

Maps from the Elder Scrolls games, but of course.

8. Beards. For or against and why?
No preference regarding how they look but they can get scratchy when up close…

9. What is the best gif you’ve come across?
You mean I can only pick one?

10. Share something with us that made you laugh recently.

Alrighty, that does it for the meme! I’m bad at coming up with more questions or tagging people so if you want to participate, then be my guest and feel free to use the questions I answered! ヽ(*・ω・)ノ
