Ember and I were checking the Everybody Votes channel (on the Wii) and one of the current worldwide polls is:

"Which am I better at? Using my..." With the following choices:
- Brains
- Brawn

I guess the person who submitted the question is better at using their brawn. (Hint: It should be brain not brains)

The graphics department had a meeting with the...

One of the cool features of Apple's laptop lines is that their power plug doesn't snugly fit in, instead it uses the powers of magnetism to hold it in place.

That way when Ember yanks her power cord she doesn't pull the whole $3,000 piece of aluminum sexiness off the dining table onto the floor. Instead the cord pops right out. And she doesn't have...

I am posting this from Ember's mom's computer, we're here visiting for the weekend. We arrived late last night/this morning and we're coming back to Philly on Monday, +1 one kitty. Hopefully he will adjust well and not poop everywhere as his way of saying, "Why is everything I know now different?"

Soonish we should be leaving to see Ratatouille. Very exciting, I...

Few of you may recall when I first started freelancing with CCFV that I was slaving away on the Algebra for Students ten episode series (on video, not broadcast). I started at the end of October and it went on (and on) until late February. So it was the first professional project I've worked on (excluding Ginker Media stuff which doesn't necessarily relate to what...

While I was Wii'ing it up playing Zelda, Ember flicked the switch that controls the outlet that the TV, receiver, amp, and Wii are plugged into. I didn't save for at least an hour (I think). She dropped whatever she was holding and then sat in the bathroom in the dark.

She's so weird. And I'm not even mad. I play games to have fun....

"So the eskimos eat the blubber?"

This whole week I've been lazy in the mornings (and reading too many webcomics/blogs) and end up running to catch my bus in the mornings. I need to stop doing that, one of these days I'm gonna miss it and then I'll have to walk the mile to work.

Or I'll just wait another half hour for the next...

I am so freaking bored at work. Yesterday began the "I finished everything on my 'Everything Steve Has Left To Do' list." I tried to leave early, but at the last moment I got barraged with tiny insignificant changes, which made me miss the earlier bus I wanted.

So now there's today and I've done about half an hour of work. It's 12:30 pm right...

The move has begun.

Yesterday, due to some technical difficulties with my shitty PC at work (RAID is failing/fucking up, and After Effects plus RAID failure = After Effects freezes up forever), I got to head out of work early while it took hours and hours to backup my files. Ember and I trained it back to my car, then went to my brother's to...

I'm sick of packing. I want to go to bed but there's too much shit on my bed.

Large artwork that cannot fold or roll or bend in any way is difficult to condense when moving. On the bright side I'm throwing out a lot of shitty artwork I made in high school. Artwork as in art assignments. Most of them are such shit. It's...
