(no subject)
i'm still here every day for an hour so, reading my f-list while i eat breakfast or lunch, but i still can't get motivated enough to write as much as i used to. work has been busy, and on my days off i'm doing other things or nothing really. i walk around the neighbourhood, checking out areas i've never been to. i've been to some fantastic places, both at work and on my days off. it's been rainy most of the summer so far, and the clouds have been looking awesome. especially when i'm out in the middle of nowhere for my job. i just keep forgetting my camera. i don't want to lug the fancy one around, and i keep forgetting my crappy little one or the batteries always die. i'm also not into taking photos as much anymore. for some reason i'm being secretive of the places i've been to, and i'm just not interested in writing all about the music and movies and books and friends i've spent my time with. i'm just not bleeding for attention on livejournal like i used to be. i'm really happy to announce this. i'm eating healthier and exercising more, that also helps.
but i do want to write about some of the books i've read lately, i don't think i've ever really blabbed about books in a couple of years.
the only thing i regret about walking around outside is that i haven't really worked on creative stuff. i test shot a few things, but in terms of writing, making noise, all that shit, i haven't done anything. but my volume two of answering machine tape compilation will come out in the fall. so at least i'll squeak one thing into the world by the end of the year.
regarding my video work, i have to say that i'm easily frustrated with rendering files and trying to upload them. that sucks the fun and spontanaeity out of everything. i'm trying to collaborate with a couple of people to start a band - or bands - but time and work schedules between everyone hasn't worked out. but i do want to try that next. i'm just sick of doing music on my own, uploading it somewhere where it gets 73 hits and then sinks into oblivion. i want to mix my new hypersocial life with creativity, not replace it.
right now i'm trying to upload something onto youtube, it's taking forever and i'm trying not to get pissed off, but here's this for now:
