wotmud was nice enough to leave this link in answer to my last post.  http://womeninleadershipandtechnology.blogspot.com/2007/09/female-gamers-on-increase.html It sounds like the person who wrote that post is in the gaming industry, so she has a different perspective on it than I do.  However, she does state this: Female players tend to be casual, interested in easy-to-pick-up social […]

Players Who Suit MUDs  I’ve been reading a lot about gaming recently, and why there are few female gamers.  Quite honestly, I got used to being one of the few females in many situations, so I wasn’t that uncomfortable as a girl on the MUD I played on.  It probably helped that 2 of my […]

It’s been long enough since my last post that I really should post again. It’s also 11:30 and I really should go to sleep. Tomorrow’s Monday and… well we all know what they say about Mondays and back to work. Lately, I’ve been reading a lot about the possibility of a recession.  It’s odd because […]

When I was pregnant with my daughter, my hormones were driving me crazy.  With the added stress of working overnights the whole time, I was very depressed.  I asked my doctor about going on an anti-depressant and I was told that there were not enough studies out there to prove that anti-depressants did not harm […]

Work should get interesting in the next couple of months. I guess the Biggest Loser franchise is making a lot of money… I know the local gym has a Biggest Loser contest going on, and now we received an email from one of the corporate dietitians about one that they’re going to run through work. […]

All week, I thought that I was going to have to spend tomorrow in the freezer again at work. Today, my boss informed me that she’s had people doing the work all week so we don’t have to do it at the last minute. Well gee, it would have been nice if I had known […]

I realized tonight when I was doing my freelance writing assignment, I’m making it much harder than it needs to be. I really don’t need to stress about anything other than staying on topic, getting the keywords in and hitting the word count. I don’t know why I put it off over and over. Friday […]

You’d think that growing up in Vermont, I’d be used to the cold. Yesterday, I worked in the freezer at work, and by the end of the day I was cold. No, more than that, I was COLD. Which means I didn’t get to read the news yesterday until I got home. I had read […]
