Friday, October 23rd, 2009Zombie Proposal
Tuesday, October 20th, 2009I had an emotional and crazy day with a number of events I could tell you about, but instead, I am going to tell you that you should really watch this Zombie Proposal video, all the way to the end.
If you have nothing nice to say…
Monday, August 31st, 2009Usually when times are rough I turn to inspiration, think about things, and move on. I have a collection of movies I watch over and over again and depending on my problem, I know which movie I should watch to get myself to think about things and help myself find answers. I have a quotes file and words I’ve kept written down from a wise friend–all of these things are where I turn for wisdom, for light, when things are hard and I have to pick myself up.
Right now nothing works. I watch new movies, read new books, new quotes, it doesn’t help. I have no wisdom for these problems, and the more I think about things, the more problems I come to see.
I need to do something, change some things, I see that much. Right now all I’m doing though is sitting here and waiting on my brain to figure out what to do next. Searching for answers I don’t know exactly how to find.
I guess this blog post is really vague, but there is so much it’s hard to sum it all up. Mainly my problem, I think, is loneliness. I guess I should make sure I really know what the problems are before I can figure out how to fix them though, right?
time management
Friday, August 7th, 2009I don’t really know how to balance my time, because I don’t have as much of it as I feel like I should. It’s hard not to focus on what I feel like I SHOULD have, instead of what I actually do.
I have less time because I have to rest more, because I get sick and tired on a daily basis. It cuts into my time to work on things, to write, to blog! I was working on getting much better about this time management business before my father passed away, and then it all just sort of fell apart. I’m working on it again, though!
In case you didn’t know, I’m a pretty big geek, and I LOVE me some Joss Whedon. On that note, I love Dollhouse! I can’t wait for the show to start up again on September 25th. Anyhow, I recently watched the unaired pilot and the 13th episode, Epitaph One, which will both be on the Dollhouse DVD. Epitaph One is absolutely amazing! I can’t tell you that enough. AMAZING. What a great show! I can’t wait for season two. I can understand why Fox didn’t air it, but ultimately I think they should have.
The unaired pilot. Wow. So far all I really have to say about it is that I really wonder how season one would have gone with that pilot, because it seems the show would have been completely different. I won’t say more for fear of spoiling you. If you haven’t been watching Dollhouse, you should catch up before season 2 starts!
New Camera
Friday, March 13th, 2009We’ve wanted to get a digital SLR camera for awhile, and finally took the plunge and got the Nikon D60 with two lenses. You can see the camera on amazon.com. Wow, I have to say, this camera is very cool! We took 500 pictures the first night we had it. We got it at costco in this bundle package with two DVDs about how to work the camera and fun things like that. What I really like, is it has the simple point and shoot options for when I just want to click away, but it has a lot of things I need to learn for when I’m in the learning mood, too. I will post some of my favorites soon! Robert got some amazing photos of Chloe (the cat) where it looks like she’s sticking her tongue out. Fantastic.
I have been writing every single day lately, I’ve gotten decently far on this story I’m working on, and I have a nice little map with checkpoints to help me keep going. It hurts my head, but I love it.
