More of the same...

El blogo is a going to be really thin on posts for the next 5 days, MADNESS insues. Just more of the same really. The Love of My Life told me that Alex is having a party/get together for her Bday coming up, I wish I could be there for that. Another in along list of things I'm missing/going to miss. Will post more if I get the chance.

Is this post a shark or what?

Well work is work, more of the same really. Owls are awesome by the way, but they kinda make me sad because they remind me of Lord Fluffykins aka Boykins the Lord of all Fluff.

So as I type this the Love of my Life is telling me of Kimmie's Birthday get together. I MISS EVERYBODY. Again I forgot to take some more pics of my whereabouts, sorry. Oops I lied, I do have a few pics of today. First up this shot of the theater, at the time the photo was taken, the song Hybrid Rainbow by the Pillows is blasting out the speakers. All of the Texas State Fair had to listen to my J-Rock all day! HAHAHA HAHAHAHA! Take that you cowboys! Really that was the best part of the trip so far. Anywho we have a request for a shot of me smiling, to do such a shot I had to be on the phone to the Love of my Life.

Here is the view from my console.

BOIDS! I'm still amazed at how I ended up in this place.

This is the camera I've been using, its a Sony HDV. Domo-kun is a natural behind the camera, until he took a bite of it. Sadly the camera is still okay. Well I'm off to dreamland. The Mom and the Monkey are off to DisneyLand in the wee hours of the morning. For a small window of time they well be in the same state. I hope they have good time at Disneyland, luckies.

Holy shit

Scaring the straights...

I enjoy my non-conformity, more than enjoy really, more like rally behind my non-conformity. I listen to obscure music, enjoy obscure books, and play obscure games.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth.
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same.
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Really its Domo-kun posting all the Frost, look I got a picture to prove it! It proves that large furry things really know their lit. Anyways, Domo-kun pointed out the similarities of my life with Frost's poem. I'd say that I agree, if everyone goes right, I'm going left. Its tough to be so out there. I admit sometimes there is weakness in me, sometimes I want to conform just to make people shut up. If you hear me listening to some obscure song, by all means ask what it is. I got no problem with that, its when they ask something like that and then give the look of "ah thats wierd". It gets really old. Really Really Really old. I guess being cut off from the few that really understand me in this world and stuck dealing with the "straights" is dragging on my soul. I'd love to talk to someone about Warcraft or Dune or hell just plain old Star Wars would be great to talk about. I crave geek interaction I guess. Thank goodness for the Love of my life and my Brother for having somebody to talk geek to when I needed it most. Speaking of which, the Bro just dropped me a line informing of Halo 3's release on teh east coast. Lucky bastards getting to play! I won't get to finish the fight until the end of October, the level of blowing on that is off the blow-o-meter. I want me some Halo deathmatch, that would calm the shakes.

Domo was nice enough to get up and get a bit of breakie going this morning for me. I did get out and get some new pics taken for you guys.

Thats me sitting in the giant APC (I think its a Tahoe) chevy gave us to run around in, the thing is freaking huge. We stopped at 7/11, I am not amused. I did grab the following pic of Downtown Dallas as viewed from the Apts.

And yeah, I'm really tired. Worked from 8 to about 10:30ish Dallas time so 9-11:30 normal people time. I post some more tomorrow of course. This is really helping me from feeling so alone. Thanks everybody.

100% Blog Proof

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

So of course that last bit has been playing through my head over and over again, thanks Death Proof. So work is still MADNESS. I spent to much of what little free time I have here dealing with it. To sum up, They need a stage tech, not an INFORMATION TECH. 2 different jobs there. Lets move on, shall we?

I was lazy and didn't get any pics taken. Me and Domo did watch the Star Wars Family Guy, it was awesome. Domo did get a great self shot of the two of us while I was on the phone.

I am Looking forward to watching the new [Adult Swim] shows tonight, w00tage. I really miss my Fel Flame. Alright I'm going to go zone out.

Veterans of Interplanetary Wars

First





Now that I got that out of the way, we can move on to Day 2 of the MADNESS. Really today was the first day of work. Lets see if I can sum it up in one word, LIES. So I should have been shooting today, but instead I was doing stage tech crap setting up video consoles, remote consoles, and sound stuff. I'm not a theater guy, used to be, but not anymore. I don't want to do it. I'm a web/designer/Film guy. Not let me go run your wires and screw shit in guy. My Father in is Dad wisdom says I shouldn't let one crap day of work get me. I agree (/agree) with Him (LostHorizon agrees with Dad). Oh I really want to keep talking in emotes, but you'd all kill me. Anyways, work is supposed to suck, hence the work bit. I'm just upset because I'm away from my loved ones and friends and I'm doing stuff I never wanted to do. Any one of those things I could take by themselves, together its just about too much to take. Of course I'm going to stick with it but next year maybe very different. Could have been worse, I could of been fighting the Covenant. Wait that sounds awesome.



Here is a quick and dirty Panaramic shot of the House of the theater, rather interesting locale really.

Domo-kun lucked out and slept all day. Lucky bastard. Check back in a few and I Should have some more interesting pics of today up in my Epson album and here. Until later.

Director's Cut: Day 2 Photo album is here.

like the Goonies....

Indeed I am having an adventure like the Goonies! Instead of pirates, I guess I'll have cowboys? Anyways I really gotta thank the Love of my life for getting Domo-kun to join me on my trip, he's helping me blog. Not only is he a great blogger but he'll be keeping me sane while I'm away from support group.

So my Dad and my Brother dropped me off at the airport, got there with plenty of time, Domo-kun got bored so he started reading my book, leaving me to go through all the "what ifs" in my head. Though Domo-kun is great traveling companion, he isn't much of a talker. Got on the plane and had kinda of critical loss of cool as we screamed through the clouds while the Porco Rosso started to play on the iPod. Really started to tear up rather fierce. It had to have been a mash up of alot of thinks really. Leaving all I Love behind I guess can do that to you. I already can't wait to get back and its only day 1, well fuck. Like a million days to go. Luckily the room has got cartoon network so I won't go to the very last level of Hell. Anyways the second leg of the flight was in a little commuter plane, got off on the tarmac like it was 1959. Wanted to get some pics of Dallas but it was a whirlwind when my feet hit dirt. I'm pretty tired we start the setup tomorrow, I'll get to play with a Jumbo-tron. I'm going to try really damn hard to get warcraft up there on the crazy-huge screen. Anyways call is at 7:45 Texan time. MADNESS. Any who, I think I'm going to zone out now. You can check out pics of my place here. Props of the maddest type to my brother and his mad skills with that Epson photo sharing site, its teh awesome. Speaking of Epcot Servo, check out his site, Epcot Servo's Updates. He's headed off to mecca aka Disneyland like next week, so check his blog for some badass DL stuff. Anyways I'm tired and already a little lonely (Domo-kun went to bed already). I'll keep you posted as news comes in. Stay tune, same blogtime, same blogchannel.
