Yeah, I Took Another Day Off


Long story short, but by the time I got home last night (Friday) and ate, I just didn’t feel like writing any sort of blog entry or uploading pictures. I was tired. Beer doesn’t help that at all, but it had been a long day on top of it all.

So I did the picture uploading this morning and intended to write some this morning, but then instead it turned into a bit of a marathon blogging session here tonight. I can deal with that; hopefully the loyal fan base can as well. 🙂

On my way home last night, I stopped by a movie rental store in town and decided to finally heed Minda’s advice and see ‘Shaun of the Dead’ which she’d been recommending for some time. So I rented it (which ended up being free as I had to get an account there). We watched it tonight, and it was quite funny in many ways. That odd British humor stuff is sometimes even a bit dry for me, but it was overall a good movie. Not one that I’d personally go out and buy by any means, but it wasn’t a complete waste of time.

I also spent some time today working on creating my first real Kirstin video for distribution. It’s called ‘Do The Monkey’ and is kinda cute. It was really an experimental deal for me in many ways. I’d only ever spliced captured video before, never really adding any effects or additional audio. I also experimented by uploading it to YouTube (which I’d not yet done for anything), but don’t get too excited — it’s set for private viewing only right now, so that means only I have access to it (as I don’t have any friends or family set up with my account there yet). Like I said, it was an experiment… 🙂

Seeing as how it’s getting on towards 11:30 and I have one more post to make, I’ll leave this one at that and call it good.
