Hey, are you there?

It's been almost two months since my last post. It has been a completely crazy life. Last month was dedicated to finishing a very large project called Boeing Production Systems Fundamentals. I was on a team of four people, in charge of animation, design and programming. In a two week period, I put in over 100 hours not including commute time and waiting for the bus! This week, we are finishing up some edits and hopefully that project will be complete.

Weight Watchers update. I have been on the program for three months now, and I have lost 37 pounds, weighing in at 249. Pretty exciting! Some of the shirts that I have received as gifts a year ago are finally fitting.

Several photo shoots coming up. Tonight I am photographing a band called "Crusas." Check them out at www.crusas.com or www.myspace.com/crusas. In the next two weeks, I'll be doing another shoot for Renewed Life Day Spa, as well as another group photo for Bryant & Associates, and I get to be a photographer for my church's upcoming church picnic. A crazy amount of photo taking opportunities. I just bought a 4GB capture card which will allow me to take over 700 RAW pictures (which is the full resolution), pretty awesome! Before I had a 1GB card which only enabled me to take 178 RAW pictures. I ran out of room at a previous shoot, so I wanted to be prepared. It looks like I am going to be getting a great tripod soon. I'm looking at a carbon fiber bogen, which a ball head, as well as a separate video head for smooth pans and tilts.

Well, that's about it for now.
