work
nyc. wedding. sun. guns.

a calendar flip is much obliged.
sorry. i hate to whine, but i don’t think i’ve ever looked more forward to to putting the month of august out of it’s misery. the night shift is taking it’s toll. a month long roofing construction project didn’t help either. still holding my breath for a day job. but at this point, ill take [...]
sleeplessness = winning
to combat the depression and isolation of working a 7pm – 5am night shift, i have adopted the practice of staying awake when i get home from work saturday mornings. well, i’m not as young as i use to be and all-nighters are challenging, but i have been much happier since doing this. i get [...]
pardon?

timetravel: 1998
revisiting garbage version 2.0 – such a great record. also discovered ally mcbeal on netflix. who needs a time machine? Whipper: “No, I don’t think you’re nuts, but I don’t think that you have both feet on the ground either. Ally McBeal: You mean some people do?
reflections of the pacific
three years ago today i moved to los angeles with just a backpack and dufflebag. i had never even visited the state of california before. three years later, i’m still here. you’ve got to embrace the unknown.

sdi goes to the sdi so that the composite can chill with the component and find timecode and record playback so route it. switch it. monitor it. figure it out…ERROR

RIP, Sally Menke.
Hollywood has lost a legend. Oscar nominated film editor Sally Menke was found dead Tuesday in Griffith Park. She had been hiking there on not only one of the hottest days of the year, but one of the hottest days…ever. I had the privilege of hearing Menke speak earlier this year on a panel with [...]
the only show i think i’ll watch
::cue music:: 30 Rock is the best show on television, well according to me anyway. it’s a guaranteed laugh! Why does Geico have three mascots, anyway? “The caveman, the lizard and the stack of money with the eyeballs.” “Plus the fake Rod Serling guy.” EXACTLY!
pug!

wired and tired we ruin too easy
the title of this post isn’t really how i feel, but it’s a The National lyric and so it seemed semi-fitting. last night our tech support guys came to the office to move the unity (the loud server with all of our avid data on it) out of my office into a different office. avid [...]
