I woke up one morning this week and the connections between these three moments in my life seemed to make so much sense, seemed so blatantly obvious that I couldn't believe I'd not seen them this way before--like three acts of a play linked together to tell a story. For tonight, just that story. No commentary, no analysis. Just story ( Read more... )

Just two quick notes ( Read more... )

So I'm taking a short break from the Fox's Secret for now. I just thought I would post links to two videos I did this weekend because I wanted to play with the new video software I have now, along with Windows Movie Maker. Below are my first two attempts at "clip videos" which seem pretty popular on YouTube. If you don't like DS9 at all, then ( Read more... )

Two thoughts tonight, connected by something that happened on Tuesday ( Read more... )

Random note before I start. I posted a new video on my MySpace profile of pictures from my summer vacation with the parents set to "Into the West." Watch it, or I will remove you from my friend's list. Actually, I have no way to back that threat up. But watch it anyway ( Read more... )

Okay, so not that kind of dream. The kind you have when you are asleep, I mean. But here's my point ( Read more... )

The other night I watched what might be a black widow spider ensnare, attack, kill, and cart off what looked big enough to be a very small frog. In fact, based on the way its legs moved as it tried to get away, the general body shape and what not, I'm going to have to make that my best guess as to what it was. My roommate seemed to think my vivid ( Read more... )

Well, I'm now at the max number of myspace pictures, at 12. Put up some of the Grand Canyon, another mission picture, and a really awesome picture my mom took of the Suspension Bridge back home in Wheeling. For those just dying for a West Virginia history lesson, the Suspension Bridge was built in 1849 and is, as far as I know, the oldest ( Read more... )
