These are my ideas, my thoughts, my humble words and musings of me, a ponderer and liver of life.

Well I've recovered from a nasty case of bronchitis....and i'll most likely have a cold by the end of the week. Damn it's cold here in Macomb, so far the high for the week has been like below ten degrees...not to mention the windchill which has made every day feel like 0 degrees or below. I don't mind the cold, but the wind really sucks. I just purchased a G4 mac on Ebay, I look forward to enhancing my Mac knowledge with one of my very own, it's not state of the art by any means, but I think it will work quite nicely for what I'll use it for. My feet are cold...I swear they've been cold for like three hours straight, winter can really suck..and I like cold weather, but this is ridiculous. Not a whole lot to report design wise or musically, I've been keeping busy with school and work, I have however started on a online resume/portfolio for my buddy Dan Tieken. We're going for a simplistic professional approach, I'm just waiting for content right now....but aren't we all in the grand scope of things. Wel i've gotta go get and get in the print production mode, laters.

Man i'm sick. I have bronchitis. It sucks. I'm feverish one minute and chilling the next, and I can't seem to get more then several hours of sleep a night due to the intene coughing which shakes the room and has somehow managed to make my neck and back sore. Other then that I guess I'm alright. I missed my classes today due to the sickness. I really needed today to just take it easy and get over my illness. One thing i don't understand is how i'm not horse. I mean i've been coughing for like three days straight....it's crazy, yet my voice is just fine. It's really odd to me. I plan to check out the new open mic night thing tonight. I don't know if I'll play or not, I probably shouldn't....but i won't promise that I won't. My new music website is still under constrution, and should probably be finished within a week or two. That's really about all I know. I'm about to go cash in a shitload of change I've been accumulating. and pick up a second guitar tuner so that I'm not always tryin gto remember where i put the one at. Well later.

Well first week of school is pretty much in the books. I have come to realize that my internship definately taught me alot. It seems right now like what should be new material i'm learning is all review. It's kind of nice, but at the same rate it's a bit hard to get into. I've began construction of my new music website, I really like it's look, clean and simple with a few bells and whistles, possible even a flash display, we'll see when that time comes. I'm still tinkering with flash 5, haven't had much time to really play with it as much as i'd like, but the whole construction of a newwebsite can really kill alot of time, but i think it's moving by pretty fast. Helped celebrate my buddy Dan's 21st birthday last night, good time, got him pretty drunk, but not too hammered. Didn't do any real drinking outside a beer, but that's ok i was more interested on seeing a prevously unseen "Drunk Dan". Not only did i see it, but it's on tape, hell yeah. Well one morre class to go then i'm St. Louis bound. Next week I plan on heading to quincy on tuesday night to check out this new coffee shop deally, i'm anxious to see how that goes, i've heard pretty good things about the atmosphere from reliable sources, so we'll see what happens. I need to sit down and go over some songs so I have somewhat of a playlist come tuesday. Should be fun, I really miss the whole coffee shop atmosphere, hopefully this place will capture it to some degree. Well until next time....laters

Wow it's been forever since my last blog. Seems like the christmas vacation flew by. I'm now back sitting in front of the laptop in my dorm room. Since my last entry I was able to finish my newspaper ad and see it in the paper...finally get my sweet dual monitor firewire ready dell bad ass desktop good to go. It's cool. I'm currently looking for busy work to keep my mind occupied..ideally busy work that helps my design skills and knowledge base. I'm beginning to enter as many online resume job posting resources as posible, two down, god knows how many to go. I'm glad to be back at school I guess, I'm ready to finish up my college experience and move on to the rest of my life....scary as it is. My target goal right now is to become a genious in Macromedia Flash and Adobe Premiere. I wouldn't mind tacklin Maya..if i can find a version...but i'm not gonna count on it..that's for sure. I still have some needed updating to do to the website as far as portfolio and resume are concerned..we'll see how that goes. Slumber undoubtedly looms around the corner for me right now, it's late and i'm anxious to see what the first day back of class holds...even though in will be only one class tommorow. I intend to get back on my daily blogging schedule. Hopefully it will not be another step paving the way on the road of good intentions. Good Day.
