renewed love for potstickers

I talked to whit, tonight for the first time in forever. Lots of new news from her. It was good to hear from her. I missed her alot. It was a great weekend overall. I shot great stuff, but my wireless died. i am very upset. I think the engineers can fix it, it might take about 2 months but maybe.
So my week was busy, but productive.
heres the rap sheet.
Monday. School, Made in Montana and editing my dishes sequence. Got an 'a'. Good stuff.
Tuesday, worked hard in RTV to get our made in montana idea solidified. we are doing the products at www.doggon.com these carts are sooo funny. wed- normal, busy.
thursday... same.
friday was very good. Shot my rtv sequence on parking tix. Its good. worked. fun stuff
Saturday - Work was great. the weather was perfect for shooting, i had a great time. Sunday was the best of all of them. Snowing like crazy, Marci and i shot a stand up at the millitary cemetary, the snow falling on the tombstones and the american flag blowing next to them. Man what great pictures. I really support our troops. The real hereos are the vets from wwII, these guys. o man. I also got to shoot a car ax.
some guy crashed into a pole at like 60 mph. The emt's in missoula are amazing. they saved this guys life. he hit the light pole so hard that the stop sign next to it, flew across brooks and in to the pierce flooring building. ITs like 80 feet away. Plus the pole ended up on the roof. CRAZY shit.
so my new motto is:
"I like chasing ambulances, its like a parade, but faster"

well thats it. Now its off to bed.

Greater Expectations deleted

SO the computer and the internet aren't nice nice to each other, so I had some typed things, but they are now lost forever in cyber space. Bastard's.

the jist of is:

Bad week at school.
German test
RTV bomb - directed a train wreck.. My fault. Not prepared enough. Still kicking my self.
Work load... TOO MUCH need to prioritize better. Again not prepared enough.

Diet, not very good, meghan even says so. Need to work on that. less fast food later in the day, more balanced lunches...

work's good, busy weekend ahead.
many sweet pea encounters... megs is happy... and covered in sp hair.
fluffy kitty was out. made me happy'er

Now its time to go to bed... must finish laundry too.

Greater Expectations

Well that was one hell of a week. I have come to relize that school this semester is going to kick my ass, and thats the truth. Starting monday it just grew. Thursday sucked the most. It started out just shitty. Cellone, disconnected my phone, cuz my dumb mailman can't remember who lives in this house, so i get no mail some days. I really have to deal with that. Then I tried to call the livingstone people, and no phone... So i argued with cell one, but they couldn't do anything but be ass's and say, " they have to have my dads social to override the account lock" But i said fuck them. I hung up after about 30 mins on the phone. i called back later and the lady was like, oh, well you have a password on the account, and if you tell me that and the right address, we can hook ya up. I did, BAM i service again. But only for a few more days, i am switching to verizion. This crap, but vzn has better phones. Next class was dumb, German test review. Then RTV... Great Googgly MOOGLY. I bombed the show. I was to direct a 5 min demonstration, and well it didn't go very well. But what can you do but move on, I am still pissed at myself. I know i can do better, i just wasn't very well prepared. Again timewise ... not much to do anything but try not to sink. I thnk i have a handle on my priorities.. now i just neede to get going on what i can and can't do for people. after RTV on thurs everything started to get better. Megs and i had a great dinner at denny's. That brings up another worry. I am not eating very good.. Fatty fast foods and little lunches so i splurge on dinner. I have eaten so many alberstons chicken strips that i think i should buy them in bulk next time.
Today was good. Everything went as planned. German and Anthro tests. confident on both, but hesitent on the grades.. probably both b's. The president lecture tonight was ridiculous. Gustav Klint... Yeah great designer, artist and amazing at all things spacial. BUT 3 hours of slides and music of beethoven, WAS TOO MUCH. Plus it was in a cramped room, full of houty touty people and I could get good audio or pictures.. DAMN gus isn't going to like that. But i couldn't get any better. Saw/heard Niva and Chelsea sing, which was great, but that was the only good part of the PLS.

Now its the weekend, so time work-laundry- should be a good time. I am excited i love to shoot.
night night

in like a lamb

wham bam thank you maam. ITs march already.
good god what a week.
but here i sit again. Just to spew my thoughts.
but alas. no time..

i will be back soon

This is getting great

so i have been super busy. I han't had much time to post. But i found some this morning. Everything is well. I am secured for my trip to vegas is april. I really need to get on the trip to orlando though. Megs is good. We are trying hard to get as much time together during our waking hours, and so far its been really good. It finally snowed in zoola today. great to see the white stuff. I have been asked alot in the past few days if i watched the SUPER BOWL. Not really, just the last part, i was way to busy at work on sunday to watch any. Not that i care really, just i guess a pop culture phenom. I really don't like football, so it not the event of all events for me. Wayne at work, doesn't get that i am not a sports junkie. he is always asking me... so did you see the game? I have told him about 20 times i don't watch sports. its funny. That kid is intense.
But i can relate, i was super uper excited to get the job at KPAX. Today was weird over all. Sinus infections are evil demons, and megs has one. Poor girl, just soo tired and sore, i feel bad. Gotta love zoola. My fitness class is good, i am starting to get the hang of the weights, so that will be good. German was german... its getting better. Test on Fritag. RTV was long.

I am starting to get orlando organized in my head. I need to buy tickets and get the money for the trip secured. But I don't think that will be hard, just more loans from school.... Cheap money. Tickets are going to be 300 bucks. Any donations would be great.
Tommorow should be good, no work, not much else, other than studying for my anthro and german tests on friday. Ad comp is always on my mind, but not much i can do right now. I am divising a plan with a team member to get us more involved over all, and get the class more tuned in. But for now, thats all i got. Post if you got news, i would love to hear it.

And its midway

Sorry I haven't posted lots lately but its been nutz. I have had a really crazy week. I am excited though. Today was a good day over all. Lots of things going my way. I guess it started last night. My dad and ray, my professor both told me that i should stop trying force my way, instead, suggest things and get people to go that way. I am talking about all things in general. I have i guess started to be a little short tempered and bossy. SO i have really started to reevaluate what i want, what i need, and what i can do to get to the place i want to be. Also i have started to reevaluate my surroundings. Who, what, where, why. Very interesting. Then by chance, Dan, the AD comp guy says the same thing... hummmmm reoccuring theme. I guess i should really start paying more attention. SO thats my project for me this week; reset,reload, and start to build a plan to get the whole group going. I need to get in touch with my inner 4-H again. I know i can lead, just need to remember how. The next big thing is KPAX. Tommorow the President comes to Great Falls, and KPAX is carrying live coverage. I am not involved in the workings of it all, but it is a good time to see where i can fit in, if i am not in the truck. It made me a little angry that i wasn't included in the dealings, but i guess i am in school, and am still the younger photog. my time will come.
Third. I got my vegas registration taken care of. The school is helping pay for the trip. RTNDA,NAB, BEA all at the same time... wow what a news/geek fest Can't wait.
Ad comp is starting to gel, Just need to get everyone on the same page.
Megs was sick, not fun, but we had a great dinner at her place. I cooked the bacon...oh yeah.
Tommorow is Thursday, and we get our Made in Montana assignments. i hope i get wilcoxsons, or something in eastern montana. I would reallylike to tell the story of a small town, through the MIM piece.
Thats about it. working on an idea for a fun business... dealing with penguins... check back soon for more details. it was my moms idea.

i guess thats it for now.
