    I'm from Vancouver. I live in the Boston area now, making video games. (Well, working IT for a major AAA studio at least). I'm moving to the Seattle area in a few weeks, changing to a new studio. I'm looking forward to it but also freaked out, as I'm moving with a wife and three kids this time. Just wanted to share that with someone, because I can't really talk about it at work.
