It’s that season again. . . cold season

Monday, December 10th, 2007

Rachel has had headaches and sinus congestion for over a week. On Friday, I started having cold symptoms. Saturday was full of sneezing, tissue, and that trickle down your nostril feeling that makes you shake like a wet dog–and oh was I a wet dog while doing errands. I took Mucinex and six or seven [...]

Late nights at the office

Thursday, July 19th, 2007

I’m editing HDV again. The company that had originally ordered the HD video back in January ordered an update to the DVD. I have yet to spend the night at the office, again, thankfully. So far the latest I have stayed is 10pm. Things are going more smoothly than the first time I edited high-definition.
I [...]

Fourth of July six-day weekend

Monday, July 9th, 2007

Rachel and I went on a canoe trip on the Wisconsin River and traveled to Chicago to the art museum. The canoe trip was about 8 miles and was a day long trip.
After walking around the Art Institute of Chicago for four hours, we sampled some of the “Taste of Chicago” vendors just south of [...]

Concentrating on painting

Monday, May 28th, 2007

I am at the threshold of a new season of the year. Two more half days of teaching and then nine weeks of time to concentrate on the visualization of my passion. There is a lot of pressure when there is so little time. Pressure to focus scares me and stunts the growth of my [...]

Tonight, I finished posting the rest of Rachel’s photographs of our honeymoon in Ireland. She picked her favorite three-hundred and I posted them to our online photo album and uploaded the prints to Snapfish.

It’s doesn’t make the wife happy if you’re gone when you can still feel the wedding band

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

Yeah, so I’m not as frequent of a blog poster as I used to be. The reason is the HDV tapes that were sitting my desk (well, counter actually) when I returned to work two Wednesdays ago. HDV (High-Definition Video) is very intensive on my Dual G5. This Apple doesn’t feel as tricked out as [...]

Post from a married man

Tuesday, January 16th, 2007

It’s all over. . .er. . . I mean it’s just begun– anyway, we are back from our honeymoon in Ireland. It was cold, windy, and wet, but we loved it–well, all but being stranded by our rental car’s transmission going out. Other than that a little more sunshine, I’m not sure how much better [...]

A greater man would have stopped working on these projects by now, but alas. . .
