Sneaky Preview

For some reason, I decided to start this blog while I was also looking for an apartment and a job. I actually do intend to update this, but I’ve been busy with moving, going to New Mexico and driving back with my sweet boyfriend and all of his stuff, and setting up our new apartment. But luckily I don’t think I actually told anyone that I started a blog, so no one should be upset that I haven’t updated it.

I finally finished my much-anticipated joke book entitled “Funny Jokes about Sea Creatures.” It was met with wild critical acclaim. Or, at least one person said they laughed. I have many more copies, so let me know if you want one. Here is a funny example page:

I also managed to complete my video project for the True/False Film Festival (the party part of the festival, not the documentary part) and the i^3 festival, thanks to Channing’s cat-distracting abilities and his possession/knowledge of final cut pro for doing the bluescreen parts. Originally I was making a video to be played at a True/False party, but then I realized, after looking up the definition of interstitial, that my concept also fit quite well into i^3’s interstitial theme. The two fests are happening on the same weekend, so there’s a slight chance that my video will be played at the exact same time in Columbia, MO and Chicago. And then something magical might happen, especially if I manage to psychically play the video here in San Francisco at the same time. It is leap weekend after all. Actually I don’t remember what day the T/F party is on, so there’s a good chance that it will be totally non-magically misaligned.

So my video is called “We are at a really fun party. True or false?” I will post it on youtube after it premieres in the living world, which will be February 29th approximately. Here is a non-moving picture preview:

In other news, I have decided to start an Etsy shop so I can continue to make/sell E.A.T. Bags even though I am far, far away from Maude V. I haven’t done it yet because I haven’t had time to make anything. But soon!
