Alright, Fine
On looking over things just now… as I’m typing these words, and making this entry on my blog… I realize how silly that last line was.

I Need to stop listening to this song
Lately, I’ve fallen back into the habit of looping a song by Mojave 3. called Prayer for the Paranoid. My whole looping problem has gotten to the point where I’ll burn a CD just so I can listen to the same damn song play while I’m in the shower. I’m not sure why it is, but when I get stuck…
So tired
Stayed late at work with Justin and Deb. The one plus about tonight was that we ordered sushi, and Deb spotted the bill (woohoo!). I’m pretty happy by the fact that this week is fast approaching an end. Right now, I’m feeling pretty damn tired. In fact, I’m heading to sleep as soon as I finish this entry. :) Got…
In Retrospect
I probably should have gone straight to bed. I’m sipping on a beer, I’ve given up on the idea of any sort of dinner, and I’ve gotten a few entries made on the blog. It’s about 3:33 AM now, and I’m calling it a night. Meeting bright and early, 9:00 AM sharp tomorrow. Er, today. Woot.
Another Reason Why I Love You, Chicago
2:45 AM. I walk out to the street, downtown Chicago, and I find a cab within 3 minutes.
Relax, Willya?
I don’t know why it is I can’t seem to leave work unfinished. Partly, I think it’s because I know someone’s going to see this thing I’m working on… and I don’t like people seeing work half-completed. It reflects poorly on me, it looks like crap, and inevitably someone’s going to want to “change” something because they’re only seeing the…

I was experiencing some serious lag issues with my host, and decided to post to the Community Forum, asking other users for some help. Next thing you know, my site is up and screaming again… no more lag, and everything’s back to how it was about a month ago. Awesome. –edit–Actually, the lag is back now. :( –edit– As I…
Up/Down
Earlier tonight, I was feeling pretty tired and down. No real reason. I’m attributing it to Winter, and the general crappiness of the skies lately. Maybe it’s due to the fact that I haven’t been sleeping too much lately. The pattern seems to be: tired in the late afternoon/early evening, full awake by 11:30 PM. On the trainride home, I…
Guardians
Perhaps they’re talismans. Bicycles and animals seem to go together.
This is how we grow old
Standing at the Blue Line stop, waiting for the train this morning, I was looking out across Damen. Theer was a steady snow going, and a few inches had collected along the tops of the railing. I looked over, and watched a guy gather some snow between his gloves and pack a snowball. For some reason, this made me incredibly…
Happiness
This has become something I’ve been thinking more and more about, lately. It’s past midnight, and I’m typing away in this journal of a sort. I’m tired, but still up. Part of me feels like cracking a beer and continuing to type; part of me feels like just calling it a night. I’m acutely aware of the fact that I…
Adaptation
On the way to work, I happened across this bit of snow, tucked into the corner of a building. I kept on walking and about 30 feet later, turned around and pulled out the camera. For some reason, I found this image particularly captivating. It made me think about flexibility, and about how sometimes the best solution is to adjust…
Process
Download File: tracer.flaDownload File: drawer.fla The way I’ve got things set up – I’m working with two .fla files. One to do the tracing (tracer.fla) and one that does the drawing/display (drawer.fla). I’m using the Output Window to get all my information for me, so you’ll need to start off by opening tracer.fla in Flash. Controls: 1) Space bar activates/deactivates…
