Posts from September 2007

Here are my photos from last night, also the full set of 50 or so photos is available here on Flickr:

I'm pretty happy! I made the text a point or two too small, though.

I really liked that movie. Every time @drew posts I am reminded of it. You better stop, Drew, before I put it on the NetFlix queue and force @james to watch it.

And I like a lot of other really dumb popular movies where people in their mid-twenties play 15 year olds. And I tend to cry easily at ridiculous movies. I am really not fit for being exposed to popular culture.

Also, I am 28. I only have another year where I could conceivably move to LA and find a job playing a teenager on a new sitcom on the WB (or CW or whatever it's called now). I better get cracking.

I should be working right now, but I felt like yesterday was Friday and that would make today Saturday.

I ordered new business cards last week. They are just like my old ones, except with my new number, and a new blue back with a dandelion instead of the old orange back with a daisy.



They should be here on Tuesday!!! I can't help but check the tracking every hour.

I just noticed my start date is 9/1/05 so in two days I'll be at the two year mark. Almost 200 journals and 5 games of hangman. Good times!

Adorama has 11x14 inch prints for $1.99 each until Aug 31:

@james and I have ordered from them a few times and have always been happy. Of course the framing is the expensive part!

In Ruby 2.0, a new hash literal syntax (like javascript!)

{a: "thing"} # ruby 2.0

{:a => "thing"} # ruby 1.8

array('a' => "thing") # and PHP

Succinct.

Oh Estrip, give me your advice:

Should I give up my business which is finally starting to come together after 2 long years of struggle, and go back to school and try to get a nice permanent job sometime next year at Roswell with @enknot and @paul?

Or screw security and keep working at Roswell a couple days a week for the next year or two and try to be awesome the rest of the time / the rest of my life as my own man? After all, big things could be in store!

Lifetime security versus trying for the stars? I have to choose what to do in the next month.

Edited to add: Well thank you everyone! There's really no need to make a decision this month, now that I think about it, I'll just keep trying to do it all :)

Edited to add: for new people, if you start a journal and click on the 'draw' button in the edit controls above the title/tag/body entry panel, you can draw pictures too.
