Talk to Me, People…
It’s Saturday morning. I’m in the office, doing some pattern sweeps on a few sites. I’ve got Shudder to Think playing kinda loudly (Pony Express), and sipping on coffee. Entertain me! ICQ: 153997726 Do it!

Go go go go go go go!
Work again seemed like constant moving and doing. Lotsa crap happening, and a lot left to do. Justin and I stayed late, and ended up chatting work shit until about 7:30, 8 PM. Afterwards, we went down to Dunphy’s (inside the Mart) and had some beers with Emma. A nice, relaxing time – I got…
Low, Revisited
I’m digging the idea of shooting pictures from a low perspective. It’s really fun. Soon, I expect I’ll be lying down in the middle of the road.
When the Universe is Trying to Tell You to Go Back to Bed
This morning, as I was stumbling around the apartment getting ready for work… I grabbed a pair of gloves. It’s been bitterly cold in Chicago this week, and holding my camera has gotten to be pretty painful without any sort of protection. When I’m halfway down North Avenue, one glove on my left hand, I…
Be More
About two weeks ago, I saw a few PBS commercials that made me giddy with laughter. Fallon, along with Alfonso Cuaron and Fran?Åois Girard, made some great promotional spots for them. Their "Be More" campaign has, in my book, been immensely succesful so far. My favorite is Naked, but they’re all really good. Photo booth,…
LOW
I came across retrospectiv a few days ago. I know nothing about them, but the concept seems cool. The Flash site bogs down for me, but I care less about the interface and more about the photos. They’re not all great, but the few that are good are really good. I’ve been thinking about the…
Memories…
In my undergraduate days, I lived with four other guys in a house on North Lincoln. This was in Bloomington, Indiana. All of us were "neighbors" our first year, Freshmen in the dorms. We became friends and decided to live together our second year. For the next four years, we stayed roommates through school, through…
Ccccc-c-c-c-c-c-c-cold!
I think my nose hairs froze together this morning, waiting for the train. Seriously. It’s cold as hell here tonight, and my apartment seems incapable of retaining heat. Partly, I’m sure it’s because this building is "sunk" into the ground (the yard is a good fifteen? twenty? feet below street level). So technically, though I’m…
Damn You Photoshop!
Particularly your rubber stamp tool. Why does it have to be so much fun? 12:30 AM. Agh!
A Hangover…
is your body’s way of saying: Nice Try, But You Can’t Kill Me THAT Easily!
Artful Dodger
Got a call from Alex about an hour ago. Going to head over to the Artful Dodger with him and Justin for some drinks. Hard to say no, partly because the bar is right down the street from me, and also because I haven’t seen Alex in god knows how long. Here’s Felix. Getting out…
Yeah, I Know
The navigation needs to be reworked a bit more. It’s functional, but far from intuitive. Grumpy had some good suggestions for me a while back, which I have yet to implement. Soon.
What Goes Around
Over the weekend, Phantom mentioned a bit about online games. A few titles were thrown around, and Battlefield 1942 came up. Well, as it turns out I purchased the game many months ago, around the same time I bought Unreal Tournament 2003. For many a month, that Battlefield 1942 game has been sitting on my…
Parental Advice
Alright, I made a promise I wouldn’t. But I guess I need some venting. Mom and dad called. Shot the shit for a while. And then my mom picks up where my dad left off, in an earlier conversation. They both feel that I should go back to school, and get a degree in computer…
