I am planning a move back to the area, and am looking for possible job opportunities. Any leads on where or what software companies are around the area would be helpful. Looking for a web deisign/ui design position, maybe even a 3d software company!!!

first week back at AIPCategory: school
The weather in Pittsburgh is strangely warm! I didn't even need a coat yesterday! I have been enjoying the weather, I hope it stays warm for a few days or so, I have a life drawing class, and I need to sketch as many people as possible! More people are out when it is warm. I need to have 112 pages of sketches by the end of 11 weeks, which doesn't include the 44 hours of class time spent drawing models. In the end, I think it will force me to improve my human rendering skills, and help me to better understand how the body moves.
I realized also, that I am no good at drawing a woman as compared to drawing a man. I am not sure if it was all those years drawing superheroes, or maybe my own anatomy. A fellow classmate (an exceptional artist), her sketchpad is full of beautiful women. She says, "Only a woman can truely understand and draw a WOMAN." I am beginning to believe her, or rather understand what she is trying to say.
I am off to sketchworld, have a great day!

Well, maybe if we had more cool women superheros you wouldn't be in this situation. Come on! Womder Woman? Invisable jet. Super Girl? A knock off of super boy which was a knock off of super man which was a knock off of Humphry Bogart (he is indestructably in the Maltese Falcon)
Besides, male sueprheros are much cooler to draw. They have allo those muscly curves. Women superheros just have the two up front.

a day off and a ?Category: vacation
I spent the morni9ng sleeping until 11am, it was everything I thought it could be! I feel as though I live at the restaurant on the corner. Even though it is good honrest work, I feel as though something is missing. Since I started working there,each consecutive day is harder than the previous. Wish I could work with computers again, or with aquarium fish! Sorry about the ramble, I leave you with a question...
Does anyone know how I use a .shn file. I thought it was a music cd, but I have never seen that extension!??

school breakCategory: vacation
Do you know how you plan something, and you never get to it? I have had so much planned for my semester break, and I haven't even started any of it. The main reason is that I am lazy in the mornings, and I have been putting in extra hours at work to compensate for when the semester starts.
I put my small 17 gallon aquarium together. It's a freshwater planted tank.
I wish I had room and floor support for a 55 or 80 gallon aquarium. I would set up a salt tank. I like lionfish, but I would probably start with butterflies and angels, and/or tangs.
Matthew's 50 gallon salt is beautiful! Someday I hope to have the space. I always wanted to have a clear kitchen floor and have my saltwater aquarium beneath me while I cook. You would need scuba gear to clean it!
Here is a picture of my tank before I added some small fish.

I couldn't tell you who's hiring, but there's web development companies up the wazoo around here, all over the spectrum. Aurora, clevermethod, Core 101, Synacor, and Vertasource are a few reputable companies just off the top of my head. I've actually been able to do a pretty decent business as an independent RIA developer. [It's not really the kind of thing anyone can justify paying full-time for, but the kind of clients who can afford it eat that shit right up.]
