Yes I am still Alive

Kept you in suspense there didn't I?

So what's been happening?

Well it's been a busy couple of months. I got a job, which was enjoyable but the boss took serious liberties. I can take quite a lot of crap from a superior but I have a line. This particular boss crossed it, so I left and I am now unemployed again.

Every cloud has a silver lining. I got a bike to get to and from work. Round trip was 6 miles/9 km. I went from the first time I had rode regularly in over ten years to doing 35km a week. Quite an adjustment but I got used to it. I even lost a little weight, which I will probably put back on again quite quickly.

I have got back into 3d stuff again. I've dabbled over the years but pretty much gave up a long time ago. I've recently joined a new online community called 3d planets. It's one of the smaller communities. It's really a group of chat rooms and message boards but there is also a 3d environment as well. So I've jumped into the world of VRML creation, designing my own avatars, objects and even a primitive world.

I have as usual taken the world of nostalgic TV as my source of inspiration and designed a Bod avatar. It's not fully animated as of yet but I'm quite proud of it, considering I've only spent about a week and a half learning the software. I even sampled his skin and clothing from my Bod DVD so they are genuine.

Finally got the listing on BritBlog even though I joined back in July.

That's about it really, nothing terribly exciting.
