Hey gamers.
Amy and I are on the penultimate stage of our big cross-country road trip from Los Angeles to Toronto and are currently sitting in a hotel in Michigan. During the trip we had two car breakdowns, one of my vertebra popped out of place, and we had two very lovely Epithet Erased signing events, so I've been very busy...

Doing some editing work for Dogs. Amy lives with me now and we're leaving LA in a little over a week so we're pretty busy, which means I want to get this done as fast as possible and doing SFX work on stream tends to keep me from getting up and walking away.
