Like I may have mentioned before, Lily was quite a surprise (By the way, do not ever call a child a ‘mistake’. They are either planned or a surprise). We were not actively trying to have kids, we were on birth control, we were getting used to deflecting the ‘when… There is more to read…
The Episode of “==>” (pronounced “Equal Equal Greater Than”) that would normally go up Monday morning will be up later in the week. I have the audio recorded but it needs editing, and this weekend was pretty busy. I will probably have it finished by midnight Monday, but no promises… There is more to read…
In a previous post I mentioned how I was going to do a whole series on what it has been like becoming a father. This post is about my wife: Amanda Kleinpaste, and our marriage. Obviously, if the idea of you having children is anywhere near a possibility for you,… There is more to read…
I don’t know how many people actually use this website to keep up with what I am doing, But I figure I may as well let people know what I am doing most of the time. My daughter is almost one month old. That is pretty much the number 1… There is more to read…
I came across a screenshot where someone asked their audience (on tumblr or reddit or something) “Explain your current situation to your 5-years-ago self.” And it got me thinking about what’s happened between now and then. Today, Seth, you used knowledge obtained during the study for your degree to help… There is more to read…
I am admitting defeat. This website was started as an interesting hobby and it’s initial idea was to have a home for various podcasts and a blog. My podcasts have sorta fizzled as they started, mostly because of changing life circumstances that force me to prioritize certain things over hobbies.… There is more to read…
Dear Lily, This is your dad, and I am excited to meet you. We are going to spend a great deal of time together. I want to be there for you. This world that you are about to share with your mother and me is an interesting place, and a… There is more to read…
I like fighting. The sheer brutality about it. The conquering of something. Sometimes things that were larger than me. Larger than life. I have only been in a few fistfights in my life, one was in middle school – and I lost in a positive way. But as a 21st… There is more to read…
Umm. Uhh. Ehhh. Well… I like to talk a lot. If you know me, you probably know that I will just keep talking about stuff if I am excited about something. I have noticed that the more I talk, and the more excited I am when I talk, this one thing starts… There is more to read…
This post has, in the writing, turned into a very interesting list of things that I am striving for. It is not very topically interesting for nerds, storytellers, or gamers. But I think that many people might like it, so I am going to post it anyways. It’s a big… There is more to read…
I’ve had this post in the queue for a little while – more than a few weeks – and I keep coming back to it and trying to describe The topic more effectively. I’ve realized that I cannot even begin to describe this phenomenon sufficiently. It’s like trying to describe… There is more to read…
There’s a concept that I really like, and in English it would take me 1000 words just to explain. I forget where I learned about it first, but in Japanese it is called “Mono No Aware”, (‘mono’ like “moe-noe”, ‘no’ like we say it, ‘aware’ like this: “ah-wa-ray” – sue… There is more to read…
First off, I am apologizing in advance for the nerdy style of speech that I am using. I am apologizing mostly to my family – many of my family are not nerds and I suppose they just have to put up with it. I am also apologizing to my friends,… There is more to read…
I’ve never had a celebrity that I cared about die on me. I did not realize that any celebrity could actually affect me this way. Hell, I didn’t even realize that I cared about him. But the internet has been all a-buzz about it, so I had a lot in… There is more to read…
So, I am putting this post here partly because I need to write more things that I can publish immediately. I am also putting it here because these people are part of what a) Inspired b) Motivated or c) Instructed me in one way or another that eventually made this… There is more to read…
The way that I plan to make real, useful content with this blog (as opposed to the [various] [podcasts] I [produce]) is to rant for several paragraphs about something that I think you would like to know about. [EDIT something wonky is happening with the theme’s colors. I ignored the theme… There is more to read…
I am posting this right before I post another, more RPG-nerdy post. I am doing this because I think that this website is not about my life – it is about a life that I share with the geeky community. Very little of this post relates directly to the nerds,… There is more to read…
I think I’ve been listening to too many people talking about podcasts, and not enough people talking about Pathfinder. I know this because I got my website up so fast and I still haven’t managed to finish writing that first adventure or edit a single other episode. Those two goals… There is more to read…
And, while I am really figuring some stuff out, I STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I AM DOING. And I would still really like for you to tell me if/when I am doing something wrong. Please – you can email me (seth.kleinpaste@stumblestoryinn.com) or use the contact/feedback pages. I will get… There is more to read…
But I am figuring it out. But while I am figuring it out – please tell me what I am doing wrong. I don’t have a lot of self-awareness and I often don’t realize that people want me to do something. Telling me directly is the best way. Email me: contact@stumblestoryinn.com… There is more to read…
