So yeah just a quick in and out for me, kid. I promise we’ll head to the park next weekend OK? Yeah, you’re fine….you’re a big kid now, you know I have to work hard, but I really, really want to be here. You know that right? Sure you do.

Just had three days off from the day job – which incidentally has been destroying me lately. Seems like some things are coming to a head, and the stress is really getting to be a bit much. I have noticed that really not all of us are compensated for the amount of high-pressure work we do each day.

I instituted a new rule – close the door, swear loudly, and get it done. So far I even have the non-cursers following my lead. The trick is, get the job done, and no one will care they heard some F bombs coming through the door,  perhaps in the same sentence as their very name.

So….three days to work on some projects. Saturday ended up …sorry, need to stop…kitten sidling up beside me, watching me, I have to pay attention to her…..

Where was I? Oh yes, Saturday. It was planned to house two separate projects – both got canceled until Sunday. Yikes. Better get the household chores done now.

Sidebar: So the serious downside to living alone – aside from regular sex yes duh, but the real drag is that the chores never get done by anyone else. Laundry, dishes, sweeping/vacuuming, cleaning cat “business”, groceries….I do it all buddy. And days where I feel like taking it easy? Well, the shit just piles up.

But I digress.

So anyway Sunday was nonstop recording – both audio and video. The website had a large video production schedule. (I say this, knowing full well only the two of us make said schedule – I did it to myself in other words) We shot for about three straight hours – which wouldn’t be much to say, actors or those in “the biz”, but to some rookies doing it all themselves – lighting, recording, set design, hosting, uploading and editing, etc – it’s a bit much. Trial by fire though. Some good learning experiences were ad….and some fun. Head to the site to view, various videos will be uploaded over the next day or so.

The audio came out of left field really. Long story short, I’ve gotten myself involved in the making of a web show! No, not mine I’m in (I just realized that’s what we have now), but another web show, still in the preliminary stages, all to do with zombies. Actually, it’s an angle to the concept that really is unique, and I don’t want to say more in case someone with better time and money could beat us to the punch. Once it was explained to me, I knew I wanted in. We recorded the theme – work in progress still, but the theme music is there. No storyboard for the opening, but the sequence does exist in a couple heads, and I think I’ve got it down too. It’ll be fun to shoot it and put it all together. Roughly six episodes planned now, dialogue is still open, get the feeling we’ll be doing some ad libbing as well – really the type of project I’m best at.

Oh yeah, I might be acting in it. Eep. We’ll see how it all pans out. Production is planned for the next year, with shooting limited to a stretch coming up later in 2010 once we get all the roles filled. Thankfully it’ll be all shot at once for the most part, so really I can keep up with the day job, and the web job. Hopefully. Why I say”we’ll see”, I suppose.

OK, I know it’s no top 100 songs, but I wanted to stop in and brag about how busy I am working on cool shit.

Oh yeah, today, my third day off. Website and recording once again. What else did you think I did all weekend?
