(insert loud cursing here.. Myspace at my blog at this point after I’d completely typed it in… the rest from this point is retyped as best I can remember it)

Where was I ?? Oh.. I think I was talking about my day.. not much special there… though. I had back to back meetings this morning.. then ran to Champlain at 1 for an afternoon of working with Ann and Ray on the Good Games media application we’re developing. We had a great brainstorming session about the content of our media application..

I also spent a few minutes talking to Kris,  the Champlain’s media relations person, about the project.

Then  i spent a few minutes working with Lauren, one of the students who’s working with us.. She’s an ultra-creative programming artist… or artistic programmer.. She’s very good at Flash programing. She can take a goofy idea and making it work beautifully on the screen in minutes. Watching her work reminds me how much of an artist I am not.

Speaking of artistic.   after yoga tonight I came in the house to find a present from friend Abbot. Abbot is taking welding at MMU. A couple of days ago I sketched out a picture of a ram’s head that I’d learned to make in blacksmithing when we lived in England 20 years ago. From those junky drawings he made this in class today. 

The idea now is to flatten the other end and sharpen it into a knife to make a ‘buttering ram’ .

We’re all feeling pretty low energy tonight. We decided to hang out and watch a movie in Sam’s room. We were watching the Matrix III

I’m proud to say that I still don’t understand that movie.. but it was fun to hang out and watch something mindless.

Speaking of hard to understand movies.. Gabe just pointed me at this out on YouTube.. It’s Gabe’s principal, Mark Carbone doign the ‘Crank dat Soulja; dance with his hair died pink. He did the dance and the hair after the kids at CHMS collected more than 2000 cans of food for the local food shelf. Now that’s a good guy.. if not a good dancer 🙂
