The nightmares are getting weirder. Last night I was playing some kind of volleyball game at my high school, and everyone was laughing at me because I couldn’t serve the ball over the net. If you know me, you know that I am an extremely competitive person (especially in the things which I’m halfway decent at; volleyball being one of those things). Then I went into the locker room, and proceeded to GIVE MYSELF A ROOT CANAL. I actually took my teeth out of my head (not individually, as an entire package) and tried to follow Internet intructions. WHAT?! What is going on inside my brain lately? Can these all be stress dreams? Dreams of impending failure? I don’t know, but now that you all think I’m completely psycho, I’ll change the pace a little bit:

Why can’t we buy things on cell phones here the way they can in Japan? I don’t think that’s fair. In fact, I don’t think it’s fair in general that Japan gets all the cool stuff first, and then proceeds to integrate all their fabulous new technology into their lives, while we salivate from across the pond.

Whatever, they’re totally going to have the robot holocaust first. Oh, and that makes me think of something else! Apparently I say “robot” like “row-butt,” and this is not correct. Except now I think it’s hilarious and emphasize it at every opportunity. Ok, time to go to work. Thanks for everyone who has been reading! I hope I don’t scare you away with this post about my creepy dreams.

I’ve been feeling rather, how do you say, OVERWHELMED LATELY.
This is due to the following:

1. I’m moving.
2. I’m broke.
3. Work is slow, so I’ve been feeling antsy.

I know it doesn’t seem like much, but I promise you… my stress levels are through the roof. It’s mostly the money thing, just because I know I need new furntiture and new house supplies. My body just feels wound up like a spring. Part of me wants to nap, and the other part wants to run around in circles. Yes, nap. No matter how much I sleep, I’m still tired. Probably because I drink too much coffee. IT’S AN ENDLESS CYCLE!!

Ok, three videos are digitizing. That means I have something to do. I did the videos for the Rokr and the iPod Nano this week. Not that impressed with the Rokr, but I’m sure everyone else will be. Except the critical media, who is already giving it “meh” reviews.

Friday night was excellent, because it combined three of my favorite things: art, drinking, and dancing. There was a huge gallery showing, which spanned four locations. It finally culminated in an after-party that we hung out at until 3am. And for no apparent reason, I got a little more tipsey than I expected (considering I only had THREE DRINKS). When did I loose the ability to hold my alcohol?? When did two beers and a jack and coke become too much for me to handle? College Veronica would not be amused.

Anyway, here are some pictures.

I’ve started packing for the big move. Luckily, I don’t have much stuff. Just lots of little crap and electronic stuff. Wires… many many wires. So I gave up and went for a bike ride.
