Slack Again :)

Ooops! Now its Tuesday! Managed to get down to class yesterday evening and hand in my Digital Video project. I was one of four that actually had it to a stage where it could be presented. Seems a bit sad that I worked myself to death to get it done in time, even though I was sick, and some of the other did not really bother. My lecturer seemed to really like it and acknowledged the amount of work that had gone into it. His only criticism was that he liked the backing music and would have liked it to be louder in the sections where I was not speaking (but that is a pretty easy fix all in all).

I have to say I am glad everything is handed in this semester. For some reason there seems to have been a lot of work all the time. I think it was mostly due to my Web Graphics class which gave me a little bit of work every week. It has not really quite sunk in that I am free and on summer break at last. I have not let my mind wander too far forward of late, trying to stay focused more on what was going on just ahead.

Now I can look and see what we can manage to get done. I have been thinking that it might be good to get the new project up and on its feet. I have a website just sat waiting for some content to fill it and we have some great plans. Might see if we can manage something this week (or weekend) as it appears that Rolemaster will not manage an outing even though most folks are free Saturday. Goggles, poor lad, is pulling a 3 shifter and working all the way from Friday up to Noon on Saturday, so he is not going to be any good to anyone. And we have cancelled Sunday due to Mother's Day. At least we should be able to pick up Beyond the Mountains of Madness this Thursday and see if it has any legs. I think this next session will be the teller to see if the party can make it to the plot or go mad trying to find it.

Woke up at 5.10am this morning coughing my lungs up. Decided it was probably nicer if I got up and went and died quietly away from poor Lindsay. Sadly I managed to wake the dog and she and I spent some time dozing on the sofa in my study and trying not to disturb each other. She is a lovely little dog and we ended up sitting in the Games Room watching Dune while everyone else started to wake up!

I am also pleased to say that Lindsay has managed to fix the skirt she was making. The zip broke on her after she had spent two days making it and she was starting to lose heart a bit but we managed to find a zipper repair kit in the local craft store and it has all the pieces she needs so she is just pliering the stops on now and hopefully things will be good. She is also getting to be a rather good driver even if the majority fo Texas can't drive for toffee.

Just wrapped up my wiki work for my Web Graphics class and am thinking that relaxing with a nice cup of tea is whats in order. I have to blame Thing, but every time I make a cup I think of this bloody video he posted up on RPGMP3 called Cup of Brown Joy. Its rather funny!
