I'm gonna listen to this all night long

"Hangin' Upside Down" by David Byrne. Got it from ek for a video idea she posted here. Gotta get more UY for this vid. MeriC is also doing the vid to KOR I think, so it'll be interesting to see how the two look after all is said and done.
All my credit cards were not accepted for lack of credit history. These people suck. Time to use federal tax refund for some good.
I might even have it watercooled. I'm such a geek.
Did I mention I love this song?
I managed to get reinsured as well. That means I can attend cons again! Woohoo! I might actually show up.....must make a t-shirt so people will know who the hell I am....assuming they even remember.....
doubtful......
Ok, I'm done. I'm gonna go dance in my room to this song now. -
Amazing looking back

I was going through the new Opinions Guide and one of the "Useless" opinions was for Cowboy. I bragged about it to my co workers. I'm pathetic.
On a really good note, I want to publicly thank GaiDaigoji1982 and Xanthrax for their well-written, lengthy comments on the video. Xanthrax nailed all the points I thought about the video pretty well, and I couldn't stop laughing reading GaiDaigoji1982's comments. It made me remember all the heart ache that went into that video. The sad thing was, I remembered listening to that song so many times driving around, and coming home from work during lunch and forgoing lunch just to edit one little 5 second part just so I could be happy. Thank you guys for bringing those memories back to me. It's a rare thing to capture the past so well, and you two really made my day.
On other, less sappy notes, I have decided now to take on a bigger project than I originally intended. My computer right now is in the process of making major improvements to the Eva pr0n I finally downloaded off of a French site. However, that's just not enough. Now comes the maticulous project of first, removing all the chinese subtitles throughout, second, removing the annoying cursor that was visable during the original encoding, and third, resubtitling it in English. Of all the projects I working on, it's pr0n. I just don't believe it. And sad to say, it's the only one on my hard drive, or anywhere. Well, I'll keep you up-to-date on how that project goes.
As for the video that will actually be using clips from this "show", I'm still formulating the ideas, and trying to find a suitable codec to use that will edit nicely, since it will have some lip syncing in it, and trying to lip sync edit in HuffYUV is impossible on my computer. I'm thinking of sticking with Cinepak for initial editing. Quality hasn't been that bad, so who knows? We'll see.
I'm going to eat me string cheese and go to lunch and watch my computer process at 1 frame every 10 seconds. Where's my damn credit card?!?
One other thing for debate. I've actually been thinking of trading in my PC wheels, giving in, and going to work on one of those new iMacs. Will I be killed by the general population, since I've already received death threats here for even suggesting the possibility. *groan*
Last, but not least, does anyone know the proper way to write the english translation for the "hmph" that NeiA is always doing? I love that little thing. I have to put it in a video somehow. -
Do you ever.....

.....have one of those times when you're just walking down the street and all of a sudden an idea hits you? Even if you've never remotely considered it before....and just out of no where.....BAM!
Well, that happened on the way back from lunch today. I think I'll be dropping my existing video project for the new one.
Now all I have to do is find that high quality version of the Evangelion pr0n and I'll be set.....no it's not what you're thinking.....well, kind of.
I'm gonna see what I can get and find out if the video looks like it can work. If everything looks like a go, I'll post it on my vids post haste.....
Reminds me....gotta take down those other vids I haven't worked on in months......I'll get to them when the new computer gets done.
Also, my phone works now! YES! I can surf the net at home! YES! I can download all kinds of things on Morpheus again! YES!
I have no money anymore....
....
Does anyone have a gun? -
Back to work......the other kind

I can't help it. I started work on a new video today....need to check the AMV listings and see if this has been done or not. Weird though. I just happened to get this random idea, and even though I have no idea whether the video will even work, since the two were basically random choosings, and I'll start patching it together and see if it works or not.
I'm gonna try editing in Divx for once, and see if I can edit it decently or not. I like working in Huffy, but I'm down to less than 2 GB of space, so we'll see if I can do this or not....Whee! -
Back to work

Work is horrible, but oh well. What else is new?
I hate the phone company. They cut me off while I was gone visiting my girlfriend, so not only can't I call, but I can't get online either. I could use the time away from the computer a bit. Time to clean the room and especially the bathroom. It's a mess in there.
To top it all off, I got my Christmas present from my dad today. A new phone. Really damn useful now.
I'm about to get restless again. I can feel it. That'll all stop when next paycheck comes, cause most of that is going to a new vaccuum and other generic cleaning and storing supplies. The computer must wait yet again.
Who knows? I might try getting the new hard drive just to give me some space, since I can still edit with the current computer. It's just slow.
This year's "Far Side" calendar is the last one. That's it. No more. Get them while you can. They all deal with death, so it's kind of a morbid way to start the day. Just how I like it.
I'm seeing Eva videos with scenes I've never seen before. I may have to go and watch the series again this weekend and see what I've been missing.
Did I mention that work still sucks?
