Hanging Out With The Parents And V-Day

 

Wow, it is supper sunny here in Seattle. I wish we got some snow this year, supper jealous of you east coasters. Last week I visited my parents, my dad came home for retirement and I wanted to say hi. But I was mainly over there since I had a dermatologist appointment. My mother made the appointment for me due to my stupidity many years ago in my teen years of sitting out in the sun and getting really bad burns. The good news is my sink looks great and don’t need a follow up appointment any time soon. The bad is I have a few moles that I didn’t know about on my back but they look ok. While I was there I was treated to very delicious meals from Port Gamble and over here in Seattle.

This past weekend was Valentines day weekend and everyone decided to invade downtown. So I thought I would avoid everyone and go up to Capitol Hill and checkout the Starbucks Roastery cafe. But all the tourist decided to invade, so we just went into the Serious pie restaurant which is attached to the roastery for some lunch. After lunch we went to the comic book shop to pick up our comics and went home to relax. I asked for nothing on V-day because my couch I'm count as my x-mas/anniversary/valentines gift since it was an expensive couch. But I did get my man a Life Aquatic themed gifts, which included a steve shirt and a Kingsly red hat.

Quick work update: still waiting for the documentary trailer, final got the absent director to sign the contract but now waiting for him to send me the money so I can start. Going to have to send him an email tomorrow if he doesn’t send it soon. And finally I was contacted by a recurter for Holo Lens, I talked to them and said I would be interested but I have my doubts of getting the job since the recurter said they were looking for some one with game audio experience. And this morning I revived an email from the recurter saying they’re going to hire people with game audio experience. Called it.

Have a good week little bots, I will be working very hard on finishing the sheer top part of my ivy costume, and start working on the embroidery for the top as well. See you all friday for a bitch out session on probably the absent director.

See you on the other side.

2 Weeks Wrapped Up In A Blog

            I’m a bad, bad blogger.  I haven’t been writing in my blog regularly and promised you false dates of blog releases.  Please don’t yell at me!  So what have I been up to, to cause me not to write?  Not a damn thing.

            Well this is slightly untrue.  The previous week (so like 2 weeks ago) I was running on 95% health, the zombie flu/clod was hovering around but not too bad.  I went out with my friend (lets call her Z) 2 days in a row.  It is nice to catch up and have new things to talk about especially when she dished about Women in Film event that happened the night before. 

            From her description of the videos shown, I am glad that I didn’t spend over $100 plus bucks in membership fee for one year.  According to Z, a majority of the films and commercial shown had bad audio, awful editing, and poor story.  There was one film that stuck out to Z was the pro-bono project that I dropped back in September.  Apparently the director was there to show off her project.  Well according to Z, the film its self was extremely slow paced, needed more structure to the story, and over all boring.  Z said the only thing good about the short was the sound mix.  She even said my name was in the credits.  The strangest thing about that is that I asked the director in my bouncing out of this sinking ship project was to remove my name from the credits.  So now I am wondering if they used one of my mixes that I sent her before I quite or pure laziness not striking me off the credits.

             I am not going to waste my time finding out; I have already wasted enough time on that project. 

            On a lighter side of my life I saw The Last Unicorn on the big screen.  So much nostalgia and feels for this film.  I have mentioned in previous blogs that this is part of a screening tour with the writer of the novel.  But being there with so many people who all feel the same about the film and book was amazing.  If you ever get the chance to see it on the big screen, GO! The Q&A alone was awesome and they even have sweet merchandise for sale.

            So that was two weeks ago, last week was a whole mess on its own.  I had to reschedule doctor appointment due to female issues… by issues I mean my period.  God I’m gross.  The shitty part about that was I have to wait 3 months to see her.  It is beyond ridiculous that she is schedule that far out, damn people need to stop getting pregnant.  A pap only takes like 5 minutes to do, you can squeeze me in.  I could see a nurse to do it but the last time I did that she fucked up on my pap test costing me more money to come back in and see a doctor 3 times in 6 months just to make sure nothing is wrong. 

            Oh and one of my mom’s barn cats had to be put down last week as well.  That is another childhood animal that I had to say good bye to.  That is the 5^th pet that has passed on in a 3 year span.  It sucks to know so many older animals.

           

         

   On a happier note, I am digging my Xbox One.  We (my man and I) got the day one edition.  It even says day one on the controller.  It is so cool how you can program it to turn on your TV and sound system with your voice.  It is the all in one box that I have been wanting for.  As soon as we get our cable box I can watch live TV while playing a game! Hello Seahawks, I will enjoy watching you play in the side bar while I kill zombies. 

            This week is thanksgiving, and I will have a party Wednesday up for you to celebrate this day in geeky fashion.  Spoilers, its Muppet themed.  Also this Friday I plan on have a special blog for all of you black Friday people and holiday shoppers on what to get your man for a geeky Christmas present.  I will see you all Wednesday.
