(no subject)
I must admit, as I write this entry, that I am under the influence of one of my Christmas gifts: a bottle of Basil Hayden Whisky from my girlfriend's sister.
I am drunk and trying to sober up--a feat that occurs about 1 and a half hours after a state like the one that I'm currently in.
I am in a good mood.
This is an unusally good thing.
I am also listening to one of my GREATEST christmas gifts....an iPOD!!!
I was under the torturous condition on my vacation, of not being able to play with the iPOD, because it requires the services of my girlfriend's computer, namely the requisite OSX.
Ah!!!! what a vacation.
I had been under the ridiculous onus of many 85 hour work weeks at the Avid, but I somehow survived.
Then, we left on the 23rd to go to San Francisco to the Mark Hopkins International Hotel and the Adobe Inn on Knob Hill (sp?).
Then, we went to Carmel-by-the-Sea where it rained for 3 straight days.
Danielle and I played Scrabble and stayed in the bed.
I did not think about work at all, and it was GREAT.
I am actually so drunk that I can't even write coherently, but maybe this is more par for the course that I would like to think.
Then I got a call from work saying I wouldn't need to be in till Monday.
Now, I listen to a song from "the Shins" on my iPod and try to focus on the screen which is not going so well.
I really had one too many, but I feel fine.
On Sunday, I will put up some more shelving around the apartment in an attempt to make a 400 square foot space livable.
I am also thinking about getting a G5 computer in January. It's time to start cutting again. I've watched the amateurs do it, and it's amazing how much you can learn from cutters that will never be as good as you can be. That's a very strange thing to realize. Experience really counts for a lot, but it will only get you so far.
Yes, it's comforting to be ready for the next level.
It's time.
It's time to prove.
