I finished building my house in Second Life, just need to get me some furnature in there, and I’m also working on my new website &lt;a href="https://dougsshack.com/old-projects/"&gt;https://astinus.net/ (Dead Link)&lt;/a&gt;
… and I bought an iPod O.O I bought an apple product &lt;em&gt;hides face in shame&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Other than that… not much else at this time.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>It's Been a While</title><link>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-06/its-been-a-while/</link><pubDate>Thu, 03 Jun 2004 16:56:03 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-06/its-been-a-while/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I haven’t tossed up anything here in a long while.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tired, thats what I am. Tired of work switching my schedule constantly. Work evenings, then mornings, back to evenings… oh, back on mornings again. My body can’t keep up with it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The “game” I’ve been playing a lot of is &lt;strong&gt;Second Life&lt;/strong&gt; – highly addictive because it’s not a game but a virtual community. Just last night I began building my house there. I’ve put &lt;strong&gt;Final Fantasy XI&lt;/strong&gt; on the back burner for a while, give myself a break. I leveled myself to 38 Dragoon, but had to set it aside before I go crazy. I still have to level my Samurai which is only level 10. So, I’ll have to head back to the Dunes and Qufim and… and… the jungles near Kazham. &lt;em&gt;Shudder&lt;/em&gt; … With all that work ahead of me, I’m enjoying the relaxed atmosphere of &lt;strong&gt;Second Life&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>All Is Quiet</title><link>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-02/all-is-quiet/</link><pubDate>Sat, 28 Feb 2004 16:38:54 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-02/all-is-quiet/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I just got my hands on a box-set of &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cowboy Bebop&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, that’ll give me something to do for a while. Other than talking to Nina on the telephone, playing &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Final Fantasy XI&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;… &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Star Wars Galaxies&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, and working. I don’t do much.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And with that, I go back into hiding.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>(No Title)</title><link>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-02/no-title/</link><pubDate>Fri, 13 Feb 2004 16:36:08 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-02/no-title/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I believe I am being punished for something I’ve done in life… maybe in my past. Why else would I be forced to go to work at 8 in the morning. 8! Thats 4 hours before my normal wake up time of noon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;sigh&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I guess I should look at the bright side, this gives me from about 4pm to midnight to do whatever on &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Final Fantasy XI&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;! KA~Ching! Now I am just waiting for Ashlie to get on there, it’ll give me a chance to start leveling with someone I know… since Nina has jumped to level 34 (must be nice ^^)&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>No Sleep</title><link>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-02/no-sleep/</link><pubDate>Thu, 12 Feb 2004 16:34:41 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-02/no-sleep/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;So, it’s 7:02am… and I haven’t slept all night… whats worse is that I am going to be at work in 58 minutes!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So what kept me up all night? That’s a very goood question, and it’s one I can’t answer. I was on &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Final Fantasy XI&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; until about midnight. I loged off pretty much at that time. I went down stairs and played &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Grand Theft Auto III&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; on the XBox for a bit, watched G4TV, and now here I am.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>In the Beginning</title><link>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-02/in-the-beginning/</link><pubDate>Sun, 08 Feb 2004 16:33:15 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2004-02/in-the-beginning/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I have joined the ever crazy world of having a journal online. A world where people divulge personal information to people they have never met before. A place where logic and sanity ends, and the thoughts of the human mind begin. An area where you learn if your friends really and truly are unstable. Yes, I have joined this world!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’ll have my doctor give me a CAT scan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, about me. Who am I?&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>My Big Big Move</title><link>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2002-10/my-big-big-move/</link><pubDate>Wed, 02 Oct 2002 16:31:03 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2002-10/my-big-big-move/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;In 1 or 2 weeks, I’ll be leaving the United States for Germany. I will not be off the internet for too long (only for the plane trip over, and maybe a few extra days after that), however, there are a few things I will no longer be able to do. One of them is Ch@b ID’s… I will no longer be able to submit Ch@b ID’s for Dreamcast users.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Hey Hey</title><link>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2002-07/hey-hey/</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Jul 2002 16:29:40 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://dougsshack.com/blog/2002-07/hey-hey/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I’m sitting here in Virginia (well, I’m at my uncles, so really I’m
in Maryland), and just wanted to say hi. I’m having with-draws from
the internet and can not wait to get home this weekend. I think I’ve
figured out how to extract the icons from the VMS files for
Dreamserv… … I know it isn’t an important thing, but I always
thought having those icons that appear in the Dreamcast VMU Manager
would be a cool thing to have on the site.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
