Editing weekend
Apr. 23rd, 2007 03:15 pmBeen in a Gameshelf-heavy mode, with a lot to do before Tuesday's shoot. Yesterday ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
taskboy3000 came over to help me refresh my knowledge of Acquire, and we played MULE together so that I could get a feel for how it plays with another human (instead of against three computer players). classicaljunkie helped us play an online version of Acquire that I'll be talking about more on the show.
This morning I went through the Acquire footage from last month, pleased to discover that it contains a story that can act as a natural focus for a monologue. I've got to write that monologue now, as well as one for MULE. And I've got to decide today how we're going to approach the MULE review so we can shoot it correctly tomorrow.
Feeling antsy about all of this, after spending so long focused on Voilty. I'll be on the other side of it by Wednesday, though.
I have not been ignoring the arrival of spring! I've been walkin around a lot, both by myself and with friends. The Gameshelf stuff's all on deadline, though, so I can't spend hours at it. Cranking open all my apartment's bay windows and sitting in the cross-breeze to type is an acceptable substitute.
Typing this on the new MacBook. Whee! It's taking a while coz it's yet another slightly different keyboard layout to get used to. No complaints.
It's very nearly six years to the day from when I last purchased a laptop, the iBook that you've probably seen me with, if you've seen me at all. (The one with the Jim's Big Ego sticker on.) What a trooper that old computer's been. It was my main machine for only a year and half or so, at first; I loaned it to my parents when Harvard gave me a shiny G4 lappie to use. But I had to give that up when I quit in 2005, so I took the iBook back, stuffing it full of RAM and a fresh battery. I used it all last year, writing many business documents. (I prefer to do these sitting on my couch, or in a cafe.) And now I'll probably hand it back to my parents when they visit next month.
