JOURNAL: SLB (Frank Summers)

  • The morning comes too early 2002-01-03 08:43:19 My neck itches, and I don't think I'll be doing anything today except for cleaning the house and watching kids today. Bleh! I need to get out of the house. We haven't once gone "just shopping" and it's killing me. Oh well. Think I'll go watch some Tylor later today. Still need to trade in my old disc four for the new one, but oh well, call me lazy.
    Did you know that you can download "The Simpsons" arcade game and play it on your computer now? Talk about nostalgia! 
  • The holidays are draining 2002-01-02 18:15:57 I am wriing from my girlfriend's house. Somehow, I managed to actually keep a steady relationship so far, and that's good. I feel a bit better, sincethisis my first time to her house (she lives in PA and I in VA) and it's a bit ofa relief to see that her computer is in worse shape than mine. I couldn't even imagine trying to edit AMVs on this thing.
    On other notes, I haven't even begun a single video since Mariner. Videos aren't a major focus now. I've got the ideas, but oh well, I'm just not all that motivated.
    I've been paid and I still haven't bought any new anime. I feel like I'm goingthrough withdrawal. I think I'm either gonna have to hijack her car tomorrow and run to the mall for something, or I'll have to make do with my small bit that I brought with me, since she doesn't watch any cartoons at all. That may be a bit of an obstacle, but oh well. I think that's an issue almost all anime fans have to deal with if there signifigant other is not part of the group. We'll find out.
    Spent the whole day playing Spy Hunter. Unlocked the whole game. Whee!
    I shold have enough money o either get my next computer part or get my truck up and running. I think my wheels are a bit more important right now.
    Other than that, life is pretty much usual as always. I go back on Friday, so we'll see how the weekend goes.
    One last thing. My mom and sister made me the most perfect Harry Potter costume, so ifI get a chance to go to any cons this year, I'll be there as a Harry Potter guy. Wicked! 
  • The life....or lack there of 2001-11-24 20:21:51 I have done absolutely nothing this weekend. I sat around all day, and tried to get more ripping things done. I've actually gotten the hang of getting teleclined deinterlacing or something like that down now, so that's one more monkey off my back.
    On a totally different note, I have no money.
    On an equally unrelated note, Wheat Thins and squirtable cheese is the greatest thing at 3 in the morning.
    I think I'm going to pop some popcorn and try my hardest to finish watching Boogiepop Phantom (i've tried watching it for 2 weeks now, and never have made it past the first episode)
    One last note I should cry about.....I went online, looked through all the catalogs and rounded up all the anime that is out there right now that I have yet to purchase.....115 more DVDs! God, I need to stop eating. It's cutting into my DVD budget. And the studios need to stop releasing things so damn quickly. At this rate, I'll never catch up. Grrrr...... 
  • Moving on.... 2001-11-13 06:50:14 Well, I stopped working on the next video to work on some other side projects, namely my KNO sub/dub digital project. I never thought I'd watch the first episode of Kodocha as much as I have. The good side to this is that every time I watch a new episode of it, it seems so brand new and fresh to me now. :)
    One other thing. I hate XP. It is a bane on society. The fact that M$ has decided to put a movie making program bundled in means all the more crap DBZ and other Toonami vids I'll expect to flood the market. Pretty soon, it gonna be hard to find those needles in the haystack....
    And why doesn't anyone cos-play as Dr. Frank N' Furter at anime cons? 
  • One more bites the dust 2001-10-27 13:19:54 Finished "Mariner" in a nice marathon editing session. The final MPG encode will be finished in 15 minutes and will get added to my Master CD....at least when I can afford another CD to make a master disc on. E-mail me about a copy of this one and all my vids. Read my profile for reasons why.
    Here's some crap.....I just finished off of special duty, working 12 hours a day and so forth, and actually got this weekend off, which meant I could go to NekoCon, take my vids on CD, and play them for whoever wanted to watch them. One problem with this....I've already spent my money for the month! GAG! Shows what I get for planning to far in advance.....like a week in advance!
    I still hate the Air Force.
    Also, saw the "Right Now" vid. Clever, and very much Tim's work. A good addition to any collection. For some reason though, it didn't quite hit me as well as I thought it would. Oh well.
    No rest for the weary, as soon as the video finishes rendering and processing, it'll be time to start the next one. I'd like to fill a CD up by the time Katsucon rolls around. I'm debating whether to complete either of my existing videos or move on.....ahhh, so many videos, so little time.
