I don’t like hospitals

Sorry for the lack of updates recently.

Unfortunately, Mrs J-OMG has been in-and-out-and-in hospital recently, and life has been turned upside down for the past 7 days. We *think* she is getting better, but we’ve thought that a few times.

Obviously, there’s been little time for decent sleep, let alone gaming, let alone writing about gaming.

BUT – I do have something special coming up for J-OMG fans… our first ever podcast interview!

More details very soon…

I’d like you to meet someone…

Quick update

Please excuse the lack updates in recent weeks – this has been due to 3 simultaneous things:

1. Our 1st baby (aka “Player 3” aka “baby latte”) is likely to be born this Friday.
2. My “real” work has been very busy.
3. I suddenly had a Retro Gamer commission (article to write).

So here’s the latest from J-OMG headquarters…

Player 2 no longer needs “Stackhat of Protection”

As I’ve blogged previously, my wife and I are expecting our first baby (aka “Player 3”) in late June.

Of course, being a gamer, I’m approaching this event in a gamer-like manner.

First my mum, now my sister-in-law…

When I launched this videogame blog, I had no idea the women in my life would feature so prominently!

First there was my mum & sister, with their excellent retrogaming Christmas present.

Then – on the same day (just after our Christmas lunch), my sister-in-law asked if I wanted “to see her old Frogger game”. Well, of course!

Socks for Christmas = Epic Win

Yes, “socks for Christmas”. Such a cliche.
Most gamers would prefer *anything* else.

But this year, they’ve led to me naming “The World’s Coolest Retrogaming Mum”.

See “why” – after the jump.
