Things that I am up to

practicing for drawing class

Sorry, I’ve been trying to sketch more as Erica and I are taking a drawing class at the Durham Arts Council. I really need to get my scanner working again.

I greatly enjoyed the Triangle Bloggers Conference and was sad that I couldn’t make it to the meetup that came as a result. However, it was Erica’s birthday so there was celebrating to be done!

Meanwhile, this weekend is my first PhD interview. The nice folks at the School of Journalism and Mass Communication are my hosts for the weekend. I’m fairly nervous at this point, which probably explains the sudden urge to do anything other than work.

Due to miscellaneous matters at school, work and home I have not worked out at all this weekend. Erica has talked me into doing the Triangle Triathlon this summer, which means I need to get my workout… er… on.

update: Got my scanner working!

Thanks to Anton Zuiker and Paul Jones for putting the Triangle Bloggers Conference together!

I’m keeping notes and cleaning them up as I go.

If you’re blogging the conference: put a link on the wiki!

The Great Injustice

Random Thought of the Day: Just how sad is it that Disney will retain all rights to the movie properties they developed with Pixar once their distribution agreement ends after Cars? Can you imagine Disney (makers of recent classics like Treasure Planet and Home on the Range) doing any justice to Toy Story 3 and The Incredibles 2?
