Chapter 3 Complete!

After a great surge of creative energy, I have finished chapter 3 of my novel, now all I have to do is write a 1 page synopsis of my entire novel and critique some really bad poetry.

Sunshine On My Shoulders Makes Me Happy

ok, so its a little rainy and dreary outside, and well… my shoulders (and the rest of my torso) are covered. Oh, and I’m also under a tornado warning… Anyway, returning to the point of this blog post. I woke up at 6:45am and was quite well rested and my multi-week writers block seems to […]

Life As Viewed Through Facebook

Facebook paints an interesting picture of life. In the Facebook universe I have 116 friends and attend 4 schools, with a degree in progress at each. This is a highly over-optimistic view of things. While it is true that I know at least 110 people of the 116 it thinks are my friends, I only […]

Progress of the Semester

With 1 week remaining of this semester, it feels as though I have made a lot of progress this semester with things. There is only one course causing me concern. Drawing II is leaving me with a lot of uncertainty. I don’t know what to expect during the final critique next Monday, I don’t know […]

Blog It on Facebook

I think I have found the most useless Facebook application ever. Blog It by SixApart (powered by TypePad). It doesn’t seem to do anything unique. It connects to the Movable Type blog installation almost the same way I would manually, and then gives a really simplified editing tool. I don’t entirely get it. If anyone […]

Paranoid about Drive Space

Chris and I took a look at the use of drive space on my servers this evening and I was surprised by what was discovered. It would appear that my fascination with collecting porn and my ever growing digital photography store are taking over the most space on my file servers. Since I will be […]

Looking for a Camera Bag

In my preparations for the summer semester digital photography course, I obtained the camera, some filters and a few other little things, but one thing I forgot, a camera bag. I am so used to my Nikon N7900 fitting into its little leather case and not needing any accessories. For the last few days I […]

Starting a Website

I am having a hard time remembering how to really start a website. I am still fighting with LiveCurt.net and everything that it hasn’t become yet. I want to have it as a central location for everything about me, but I don’t know how to do it yet. I like having everything in its place, […]

Summer Classes

As all of my readers are probably now aware, I will be taking Digital Photography during the summer semester. I tried taking only one class last summer, but that didn’t go too well, I obsessed over it and didn’t let it have time to rest between interactions with it and overall I feel that I […]

Meet my new Hibiscus

I have been looking to find some perineals to replace some of my “re-seeding annuals” in my front flowerbed. I was scouring the Burpee catalog and looking online for some good plants. I found many of the plants to be overly expensive for what equates roughly to a freeze-dried live plants. The other day in […]
