Long, headachy day today.

I didn't want to mention it until it was official, but we're moving. "We" as in "Funcom". We're relocating our offices, after (I believe) almost six years. This is a Good Thing, by the way. We're all sick and tired of our current/old offices. And we're not moving very far -- another five minutes down the road, if you're walking. But the past few days have been hell, as there's been mucho packing and lifting and throwing stuff away in addition to the already-filled-to-the-brim-with-things-to-do standard workday. And I have a lot of crap, accumulated through my eight long years with the company. I've tossed a lot of this crap in the garbage, but there's still a mountain of crap left, and now that's all been packed into cardboard boxes, ready for the short trip down the road. Where I'll probably leave it in the boxes for the next five years.

Come Monday morning, everything will be ready for us, and I'll be able to squeeze myself into a much smaller office, together with four other guys, a video-editing suite, and a motion-capture setup. Yay-ness. And such. I've grown used to having space around me. Now I'll have people around me. All. The. Time. Ack!

But new offices equals a new start, more inspiration, and (probably) better working conditions. So everyone benefits. Even the people who play our games. Promise. I'll submit a full report about our new space next week.  ¶ 21:48
