Video post: I love this

I had a dream when i was studying film directing that I was going to make a series of films with one or two scenes that over lapped in the movies.

In one scene the main characters would be walking down the street while some ‘derelict?’ got thrown out of a bar. Random extra that almost knocks into our characters who notice it and move on.

In another film our star would be in a bar after a really bad day and get into a fight and get thrown out. As he stumbles out of the bar he practically falls on two passer-bys who notice him and then move on.

The trick being to always have the same actors. Oh, maybe you didn’t notice that the uncredited drunk in movie one was Johnny Depp, But after the first film gets referenced in the second.. it becomes the director’s signature.

I actually had the idea in junior high school, long before the music video revolution and definitely before John Waite. There’s a really bizarre scene in John Waite’s video for “Missing You” where he hangs up the phone and then walks by a bunch of people pointing up looking off camera. It really makes almost no sense.

Of course, there’s also John Waite’s video for “Change” which deals with a crazed jumper being talked down by a negotiator while below several people look up and point.

Cut tag: No.. it’s not a coincience… Come look

I love my life…

I love my life..

I have not worked in a year. And this sucks. I work towards getting work every day and I remain optimistic that my employability is not completely over.

That being said.

I am very much in love with a woman who’s agreed to be a part of my life for as long as there is Will to love. A woman who I am not afraid to raise a child with which she will bring forth from both of us in 5 months. I am in love with someone else who loves me back for who I am even though the timing in my life leaves me at times stressed.

I am doing work on a volunteer level that I love. It is one part clerical, one part theatrical, and one part personally spiritual. I don’t always agree with everyone in the group… but that’s okay. It’s the nature of the work we are doing. Over time I have become a real and recognized Ordained Priest. I feel still compatible with the beliefs I was raised with and believe my religion and faith to be strong. I perform religious ceremony, pastoral work, and organizational support work. And even when it frustrates me… I am still happy to be able to do the work.

I have people entering into my life on a social level. Some I’m dating, some I’m developing deeper friendships with. I have activities I participate in. I have projects I do. I am developing a business.

Oh… I have a cat. She’s a freak. Her mass increases by 25 times in the middle of the night when she climbs into bed and hogs the covers.

And one more thing that will be posted in a moment. Yes, as for now.

I love my life.

Catch up round 2; white paper; posting, the project; work; and the sci-fi list

First off, life has been busy. I try to actually be working on code and projects during the week and not posting or IMing. The weekends? I’m back in the swing of OTO involvement. Last weekend was two masses and my performing Minerval initiations for the Tacoma body, the week before was working with the initiator training program in Portland; this weekend I’m back in Portland for a visit; next weekend is a Biiiig weekend for Seattle OTO as representatives of the Electoral College come to visit.

So, I just posted a critical analysis of the growth of the iTunes music catalogue over the last two years. And let me be honest; the podcasting bug really bit me as I remembered how much minutia I love pulling up over media.

Before that was the vague post about the white paper. Many people asked, “Huh, What’s a white paper.” Of course my good friend Wikipedia has the answer. I am currently reading a really cool link, “How to write a white paper – A white paper on white papers” I will add that the theory/realization I had also encompasses such topics as passion and magic(k); so… more for people to wonder about.

Ah yes, the Sci-Fi list I am compiling. Yes, I am known for opening really great doors on LJ and then dropping them. This one hasn’t been dropped. It just got delayed. After day one I’d compiled the data I had and there were over 400 sci-fi shows. The debate had begun over what is sci-fi, what is fantasy, and what should be included. Hrmn. Ick. Then, that night, Microsoft excel crashed on me. I lost about 80% of the data that I’d spent 2 days on. I’ve been trying to figure out how better to organize it so that I can develop the next two rounds I have planned. I have discovered how much of a DBA I am not.

And finally the project. We got donations and loans. And this is a wholly good thing. I still need to put together information for the loan provider concerning this. It will be out in the next 3-4 days. I am working on several code concepts and typing up information on that while still putting together an involved SWOT list for use in a business plan. So that also keeps me busy.

On the side to keep my head out of the nearly 20 technical books I’m referencing; I am back to doing cross stitch in my (mostly) spare time. I am working on a piece that is shimmeringjemmy‘s Fire sea logo. I’ll post a pict of the progress as I get the time if anyone is interested.

Okay… now you know where I’ve been. The best thing I can ask is, “Drop a line.” Most of the people I know (Either well or partially) are all out of the area. Email, IMs, and comments are appreciated because I am fairly remote from just about everyone I know. And with 250 journals and far more other content sources… It’s hard to keep everything caught up.

Such is life. WereRabbit soon.

Cheers!
