Hi peoples, I'm still alive! Aliver than ever, really! I've had a very busy last few months, so I've not been around here much.
First of all, best of all, I got married in August!

Kayleigh's the one on the left
Kayleigh is absolutely wonderful, and our marriage has been truly blessed. After the wedding we went on a road trip honeymoon...

Driving with Kayleigh and Gavin the Morbidly Obese Penguin
To visit some friends in Pittsburgh, go to GenCon in Indianapolis, and see Niagara Falls!

A game of Dixit with the designer
The day after we got back from the honeymoon, I started a new, much better programming job. The day after that, we adopted a dog, Scotch (short for Butterscotch):

Scotch triumphs over the stuffed animal
In the meantime, I'm still doing game design whenever I can. Awesome Bots will be published in the relatively near future. The Golems of Ymhet is solid but I'm expanding it to accomodate a fourth player. And I've gotten a couple playtest sessions of an Adventure Time board game in too. It's rare to get this extra time, though. Kayleigh teaches dance one to three times a week, I host trivia once or twice a week, and we both have full time jobs, so we're enjoying every last minute we get together.
The most surprising news of all, of course, is that Kayleigh is finally used to her new last name.

I'm not sure I understand why the guy performing the wedding is about to kiss you, but regardless....
Congratulations!! Being married is being awesome! ;D

Gencon makes everything epic win.

Thanks for the update, and I'm amazed that she's already adjusted to your last name. I've known you for half a decade at least, and I'm still not :)
-
Yes, thank you for sharing! Your wedding picture got me so excited, I threw and broke a champagne glass and yelled, "Malta!" :)
-
Happy to hear you are doing well Tim!
-
Congrats to the both of you! :)
Ah yes, she may be used to the last name but now she will haveta get used to all of the butchered misspellings from mailing lists!?!? :P

Congrats Tim!
