What Matters Most

Trying to figure out what matters most in life? Me too!

I dreamt that an old high school pal had invented a new deck of cards. Then whatever he dealt me was a losing hand. Kinda like fizzbin.

I just finished 'Disaster Preparedness' by H. Havrilesky. I started underlining early and I thought I'd share a few. But there are hundreds!

I'm headed to the FCPUG SuperMeet. Anyone else going? Yep, now's the time to out yourself as a Final Cut geek. Here. Now.

So, who's going tonight to the SF SuperMeet of the FCPUG? I am. Any other geeks want to out themselves? Here? Now?

I wish AT&T would help me replace my stolen iPhone for the upgrade price. (Funny, I just don't have $799 to spend.) AT&T, are you listenin'?

Through my window at the Vet's hospital I watch them struggle in and out of cars. Or walk excruciatingly slowly down the sidewalk. Ouch.

RT@MarylandMudflap Jack LaLanne will carry his own casket at his funeral. -- my favorite tribute so far.

Mom and I talk movies. Mom: 'Cousin, Cousine' is a dumb title. What's it about? Me: It's a French comedy. Mom: Well, it's a dumb title.

A weekend favor to ask: If you have dog(s), and great photos of you and your dog(s), could you send one to me for use in an SPCA video?

Thursdays are like a hitter's count in baseball. It's 2-1. Take a swing. Even if you miss, hey - tomorrow's Friday!

I made and posted this 4 years ago because 'Beyond Vietnam' was so resonant then. I'm sorry it's still so relevant. http://ping.fm/u4l6U

Misheard a Fox Sports promo about an upcoming football playoff game "with more white players than ever before." Er, that's 'miked' players.

I often creatively misread. St. Charles Borromeo Catholic School was: St. Charles Borrowed Catholic School. I thought Sure, why not?

"Disaster Preparedness" by Heather Havrilesky. She rocks! What a gift. It's like... watching someone juggle pinwheels of fire. #fridayreads

I'm writing a handbook on best practices for pre-pro, production, and post, to share with nonprofit partners. Is there such a thing already?

It's Tuesday night. Already feels like Thursday to me. Except for the part where tomorrow isn't Friday. Which kinda sucks. #whatdayisit

My iPhone was stolen today. I blame myself for leaving it unattended for 20 mins at the hospital where I work sometimes. But, yeah... Rats!

I love Friday even more better when it is the end of an especially long work week - the kind that seems to have had extra work-hours added.

Back to work. Oh, wait - I'm a freelancer, and I didn't really get a holiday. So, um... welcome, Monday! Have some coffee and get crackin'!

I just put on 'Sideways' for my elderly mom, Uncle Frank, and Aunt Ginny. Much swearing, alcoholism, and sex. What was I thinking? ;>

Saw 'The Social Network' last night. Good film, made great by Trent Reznor's musical score. Who knew? (Oh, wait - lotsa people knew...)
