It’s been quite a while since I’ve blogged. Mostly, that’s because I’ve been lazy, but some of that is because there hasn’t been much to talk about… I’ve been doing some editing on the feature and have delivered a second rough cut to Millard. I’m also working on another part of the DVD now and expect to have the first rough cut of that done this weekend. The script’s been finalized as well. I have a big stack of stills to scan in to bring me up to date too. I really plan on stepping up this next week to really start hammering out this project, as it’s starting to slip too much and drag on. Speaking of “drag on”, I booked the hotel and flight for Dragon*Con the last couple of weeks. Shauna and I will be heading up there on August 31st and will coming back September 5th....

Balls and the Closet
Last night Brad, Millard and I went bowling with some friends of Brad’s down at Sarasota Lanes. We had two lanes for about two hours and around fifteen minutes into the first game, Cosmic Bowling began. That’s where they turn off the normal lights, turn on the black lights and lasers, and fire up the smoke machine all while playing some great rock music. Very 70’s. Very fun. It’s been a while since I’ve bowled (I was on a league about 9 years ago, and have only played a handful of times since), but I was a pretty good 180 bowler. My high was 225 or thereabouts. I had no delusions of being that good last night, and my games proved it. Game one was a 120, game two was a 99, and game three was 89 after the 8th frame (the time ran out so I didn’t finish). My...
July 4th
Yesterday Shauna, Melisa and I went to Busch Gardens. It was hot as hell (~91 degrees), but we had a bunch of fun. Shauna’s not a big rollercoaster rider, so Melisa and I rode the Kumba and SheiKra. I rode Kumba several years ago, but SeiKra is new. And that coaster is crazy. It pretty much drops straight down… twice… It was a pretty good ride – it was one of the few coasters that didn’t upset my stomach after I got off. So, we rode those rides and also watched a couple of pretty good musical shows and then went to see Pirates 4D, which is one of those 3D movies where they spray water at you and so on. It starred Leslie Neilson and was actually pretty fun. We drank a lot of lemonade slushies and ate some good sandwiches (I think Shauna had some popcorn and chicken fingers too)....
