Blogs, life and dreamscapes

Wow, so I have not posted a life update in awhile. Not too many read these...at least not to my knowledge, but one day it might be cool to come back and read these myself. I am sure in doing this I will mike Kristen happy :) Well let's see a lot has happened since Christmas, I will fill you in on some of the things. The company I work for has received more funding so we are good until August. I tell you, I can't wait until I don't have to worry about whether or not I have a job. On a good note though my work has gotten some attention and I have received good feedback from the CEO and several investors. This feels good and makes all the hard work and long hours I sometimes have to put in worthwhile. Kristen and I went to see The Watchmen last night. We were supposed to go see it with a group of family and friends on Saturday, but I was talked into going sooner. It was an interesting flick. I would not recommend letting kids see it unless you are okay with them seeing ev

This weekend we finally got around to decorating our tree. At the same time I wondered what I could do for my animated Christmas card. I thought it would be fun if the tree would decorate itself. 185 photos later our tree now decorates its self :)least on screen. This may take some time to load depending on your connection speed, so if it seems to be slow go get a nice cup of hot chocolate, don't worry it won't play until you get back :)

Wanted to share some old flash Christmas cards/animations I did awhile ago. I wanted to create one this year but it has been quite busy so maybe next year unless I can get some free time this coming week before Xmas. This is one I created in 2006 after I recently got Flash 8 After you click open move the mouse across the window to stop this one, click replay This one I did in 2005, this was also the 1st Christmas Kristen and I shared together. I did this on a school edition of Flash MX 2004 To get it to stop either refresh the screen or leave the blog. At the time I did not think to input a way to kill the sound. I wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season!

Another year has zipped by, one could almost miss the daily wonders life presents us every day. I believe time is a state of mind. Most of us either dwell in the past or race towards the future. Missing what they did not have or waiting for that next paycheck. I can say I am guilty of both, though I do not dwell so much as I reach out for what's next in life. Whether I am wanting the weekend to hurry up or yearning for my next goal. I am trying to slow down and take more in. I came to this state of mind due to some news I received earlier this fall. I just had to look back and think about all the stuff that has happened in my life. So many great changes, wonderful experiences and people who have shaped my life. I can't count out the bad experiences, because without them I would not have learned to make the decisions that led me up to this point. So I thank ev eryone for being who you are and being a part of my life. Well, now for the exciting news: Kristen and I found ou

I have been sick for over a week, even now I still some what blech... I have not been sick in years, usually I will feel the beginning of bring sic but it fades with the day... But this is frustrating, makes me wonder what I am doing wrong that my body would allow itself to become ill.. I thought I have been doing things right. I have been eating better than I have in the past, taking vitamins and working out. Well I haven't worked out for the past week, it takes all I can just to get out of bed. This is my first real day back at work and my first time out of the house since Thursday night. I still feel like crap, but I have so much work to do it isn't funny. Goes to show no matter how immune you think you are something out there will break your defenses. Well here is another Dream one of three that I had last night: It was discovered that demons thrived just as humans do here in a dimension parallel to our own. The barrier between the two worlds was thin enough the demons we

Today is just plain blah.. I feel like I am capable of passing out at anytime..Sooo sleepy...Zzzz Wha? huh? oh yeah I am writing a blog. I felt I slept okay last night a few bumps woke me but never the less I felt I slept okay... I did have a weird dream... I dreamed I was in some weird land I was passing this kingdom and saw a wanted sign for a giant that help a princess captured. I almost didn't go to her rescue, but the hero complex I have or something forced my hand, I almost couldn't defeat the giant, but a luck blow as he charged me incapacitated him. Next thing I knew I was back in the kingdom mentioned earlier escorting the princess to her father. Next thing I knew he was saying I had to marry her.. What?! It is law here he replied. Now this princess wasn't your run of the mill fairytale type, she was quite obese and not very attractive. Plus I had someone I loved back home. Images passed through my dream of saying good bye, passing by my true love and calling
