The Year Was 2020

As we start to creep into the final weeks of the decade, there’s a lot of conversation about looking back on the previous ten years and making comparisons of then and now.

I, for one, spend far too much time looking behind me and not enough time looking forward at what’s to come in front of me. A very nostalgic person by nature, I often think that I sometimes may miss opportunities and moments that are happening, or could potentially be happening, right in front of me because I devote a lot of time and mental capacity thinking about times of yore.

Discovering the Sega Genesis

With SEGA celebrating 30 years since the release of the Genesis, it led to the inevitable trip down memory lane. I began thinking back on some wonderful memories of playing the Genesis for the first time and games I remember most about the system.

Sega’s 16-bit console will forever be linked with the Super Nintendo and the ‘Console Wars’ that erupted during the 1990’s, and I’ll admit that I was a tried and true Nintendo supporter long before I ever dove into the wonder that is the Genesis.

But my first foray into Sega’s world has sentimental feelings, because it was the first time I purchased any video game product with my own money.

Another Random Blog Post

Some of my best creative ideas and shortcomings have come from being on vacation.

I have launched projects, websites, initiatives all while sitting on the edge of a pool, sippin’ suds and enjoying the sunshine, but I’ve also cast them all aside and shut them down while doing the same.

Naturally, as I sit on the edge of this pool today, all of these thoughts rush through my head as to what I want to do next. I always relate it to having all of this extra time to allow for those creative ideas to flow, but without the ability to do anything about it. (ie; I can’t capture footage, make videos on the laptop I have with me, etc.)

Still, I thought it would be nice to sit down and actually put something on my website for the first time in a long time. This post will be all over the map, so bear with me.
