It's rather heartening when my not-at-all-professional hobby that I mainly do for kicks ends up affording me unexpected gratuities. For example, I spent nearly five total hours last weekend and another four total hours this weekend grinding away at some frame by frame animation for a nifty little action scene Dr. Holocaust and I have been working ( Read more... )

I haven't even actually started my time off work proper, and already it's been great to just... have... fun! Yes, I can do that during my weekends and whatnot, but honestly... just not having to worry about being up for my gym schedule and whatnot is a great feeling.

Canada Day was a very awesome BBQ with some friends of mai_sheri out in Scarborough. Lots of ( Read more... )

Recipe for gut/hip cramps:

1. Get a video camera and a tripod
2. Set it up at a low angle looking upwards
3. Put drama_freak in front of that camera, very close to the lense
5. Leave the room
6. Watch the resulting footage

Ow... ... my sides hurt... can't breath... laughing too hard...

Sundays are always the worst. The worst.

Had a big emo-y post written out, but then my internets went BEEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP and it was eaten. Too tired to try getting into it again. Lame.

Frankly, I think I owe a ( Read more... )

A full con report likely won't happen. For my money, the con was pretty much the same ins and outs as last year: an exhausting experience of high energy stress/excitement/resource/time management wrapped in bubbly music and cat-ears.

I've come to a few realizations though about my role as the video ninja for events like this. For some reason, when I ( Read more... )

I'm halfway through a stretch of midnight shifts at the moment. mai_sheri made it a little easier for me to get through my first week by giving me a little something to keep my mind occupied.

I went on and on about how much I enjoyed putting my experience to effect on such a cute little project, but in reality what I really enjoyed about the whole ordeal ( Read more... )

Well, as strong as my resolve was to "get shit done" this week, last night was rather unpleasant. I don't know what happened, but shortly after a surprise and very lovely visit from drama_freak, I got hit by some kind of stomach bug or something. So that made for a whole night of tossing and turning with an upset stomach, frequent trips the the bathroom, and ( Read more... )
