July 2 - Video Play

Trying to get artsy with video. Am I going to be content shooting clips of nephew and other 'normal' things? Nope. This...this is the kind of stuff I want to do. Well not crappy like this first attempt at this type of thing with a motion camera, but you get the idea right?

I have taken the frame rate here down to ten frames per second to achieve the slow motion effect. Actually this isn't how slow motion video is done. To do it up right for a slo-mo effect it's actually supposed to be shot at high speed. But well....that type of video camera is sooooooo expensive. So you work with what you have and experiment a lot.

I have another idea involving a balloon, but no time presently to partake in play. Life comes a'calling and play has to be set aside for a bit. Meanwhile....ideas are forming for when I do have time to play,

June 30 - Hell Week

I've been to Danbury CT once. Out of all the years I lived in CT, yes, just once when I went to a job site with hubby.

I hate Danbury CT. The jobs site that far away is the reason for another hell week.

It means up at 5am, out the door in jammies, bag in hand, getting to sister's, falling into bed until turbo-tot wakes up. It means caring for him over there, not here. In a house that is not kind to my old bod. A house where the stairs are my nemesis, and where large dogs park their large dog asses plunk in the middle of the floor. In a house that is not mine hence I am not here doing my own crap, leaving it to be done when I get home....tired...after needing to get up at the asscrack of dawn. That orange overnight bag of mine has seen a lot of action lately.

Yeah...hell week. I hate Danbury.

June 28 - RIP Micheal, Farrah, & Ed

Rest In Peace Micheal Jackson

Micheal Jackson wasn't always strange. When I was in middle school The Jackson 5 burst onto the music scene. So you see I 'grew up' with Micheal Jackson.

He was a boy with a powerful voice and magical feet. He wasn't 'Jacko'. Last night I watched some YouTube videos of the Jackson 5 and Micheal as a solo performer. And he was indeed a performer. As I watched the original 'Billy Jean' done by a young and hot MJ, and then a later one done by scary faced MJ, the comparison was truly shocking. Why oh why did he choose to do that to his face?

Personally I don't believe he ever harmed any children. I think he had some serious mental issues that stemmed from him being a 'child star', and also if you watched the movie that was made about this family it is clear that Joe Jackson was as much an asshole to his kids as Jack Cassidy was to David.

Truly he took eccentric to new heights. But one thing you cannot deny - no matter what else he was, the man was a tremendous talent.

Rest in peace Micheal. May all of your demons be gone now, may you be at peace.
