Space cadet

[badseed1980]

Yup, that's me this morning: a space cadet. Late to bed and early to rise makes you sleepy and groggy and stupid. :) I didn't get to sleep until shortly after midnight last night. I had a quite decent dinner at some Italian restaurant (price range: cloth napkins on the tables, but simply folded, and no candles or bulbous wine glasses) with witchyspyce, cloakedrose, and whiteboy. Lobster ravioli being MIA, I ate the Kraken instead. Arrrrr.

I finally got to see the masterpiece of five-minute films that is Beethoven's Rogue, by witchyspyce and company. It was really quite well done, but I had to giggle anyway. Particularly at the angsty shots of cloakedrose playing piano.

Things learned:

1. People who hesitate before telling you their age are probably preparing to lie about it, so it's handy when they leave their driver's license out somewhere in the room. :P
2. Velociraptors like chicken wings.
3. "Stalker music" is an instantly recognizable genre within the whole film-score type of category. And it is possible to create a musical theme for "a pig in a barnyard".

So, yeah. After seeing the movie, I totally need to introduce witchyspyce to my cousin L and also to j4yx0r. So they can geek about the world of filmmaking.

And on that note, I'm gonna write my cousin, because I've been neglecting the guy for a while. Oops.

You know...I kinda patted myself on the back after I watched it again. It's been awhile, and now I realize our hard work really paid off. At the time I was so stressed out that I didn't appreciate it before.

Crap. Now I am second guessing quitting Emerson. NO! NO! It was definitely the right choice. I can always take film classes somewhere else. From what I hear, it's getting worse over there. So yeah, I made the right choice.

KRAKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, you made the right choice! You'll do great wherever you are, but you'll do greater if you're happy. :)

1. What??? I did NOT hesitate!!! I always make people guess! It's fuuuuuun!

2. Yes, they do. Funny you mention it... I sometimes wake up in barbecue sauce...

3. Let's combine them - Stalker Pig! Sounds like a REALLY bad horror flick from the early 80s.

I'm not angsty! I'm... "movey", Mrs. Fidget Pants!
