Running late leaving for Los Angeles - the long drive past the factory farms of freeway five. Tomorrow I tour USC Interactive and see if the MFA fits.

But before I leave I managed to put pictures and links and some polish on the Indie Game Jam 2 web site. And I turned in my article on the topic to Gamasutra. I dispatched a gift to my sweet Mama, who has her birthday today. And I made myself a potion -

I loved making potions in like second grade. Choosing a random mix of spices and liquids in the kitchen to see what kind of infernal smelling brew I could cook up. This morning I put that inclination to good use - four echinacea tea bags, three emer'gen Cs and a pile of honey. Immune boosting for the road.
