cs3

Tuesday, January 30, 2007
egad...

i just downloaded the new photoshop CS3 beta from adobe, and it is quite a spectacle. it flies like a bird on the wing. instant response, anyone? i would definitely download it if i were you, especially if you have on of the new intel-based macs. you can only use it for two days if you don't have a valid CS2 serial number, but if you do you can keep it forever.

nice.

a new project

Monday, January 29, 2007
when i finally have a couple of spare days i am definitely going to build myself one of these. i think i can probably wrangle up all the part without too much difficulty.

unusual weather

Wednesday, January 17, 2007





what a curious sight to wake up and find snow on the ground. how even more curious to wake up to find that an alarm clock is still hanging from your tree, even after six months of storms and wind. apparently it still works (according to my roommate.) school got canceled today, which is completely unsatisfying since it's only the second day and we really have no assignments to take a break from.

here is a pic for n8 of my beard progress. day 17. it should be massively bushy before too long. i expect young birds shall try to roost in it regularly and i shall have to start carrying a fly swatter.

also, i reorganized my room and now have a sweet new setup:
why yes, that is a brand new widescreen LCD display! thanks for asking!




...i do believe it might be snowman building time. the fresh 3/4 inch of powder/icy debris is calling my name...

an art show

Monday, January 15, 2007
hark, there's a new show opening at art prostitute this coming saturday. artists featured include brendan monroe and evah fan. check out the gallery website for more info.


word.

a memory

Sunday, January 14, 2007
i just found this gem when i was digging through an old box. the last sentence is truly that of legend.

ah, the old days...

but man, those socks did smell bad.





today i remembered a recurring dream that i used to have as a kid. it involved burt from sesame street, except that he was actually peter jennings. he would always speak in the mumbly voice that i could never understand. he would stand in front of this old crooked house that looked like it was about to tumble over.




...stupid burt/peter jennings. scared the heck out of me every time.

iphone

Friday, January 12, 2007
i know that everyone in the world is blogging about the new iphone, so i won't go into meticulous descriptions and enthusiastic lauding of the increasingly progressive nature of Apple's thinking, but i will say this:


i am graduating from college in four months.


i know that people will be shopping for graduation presents...



eh? eh?

a smell

Tuesday, January 09, 2007
my whole apartment has a weird "spicy" smell wafting through it...


...it's almost as if the entire thing is about to be baked into a giant pie.

dismal

Friday, January 05, 2007
i returned from my first jogging session i've had in many years.

i am a sad sad sight.

i am afraid that my heart has shrunk to the size of a pea during the last few years of general non-activity, and is now having a terrible time pumping blood everywhere it needs to go.

oh well. i shall try again later. perhaps i shall engage in a two-run-a-day regimen until school starts.

for now, everyone should go here.

it's way better than exercise, for sure.

pictures

Wednesday, January 03, 2007
well, i have very little time to post today, but shall bestow upon you some pictures. after all, doesn't a picture speak a thousand words?

...i guess. whatever.




the first is my volkswagen, which is effectively dismantled at the moment. i'm having a bit of trouble getting it put back together...

the second is my christmas gift from christina, who made me a splendid plush elephant. you really must see it in person to truly grasp its awesomeness.

thirdly, i have recently added a "vincent van gogh action figure" to my toy collection. this dude was too priceless to pass up. it has a replaceable head, one of which is missing a left ear. sweet.
