Monday, 3/21

One of these days when I take a day off I'll take an actual day off. Really, I will.

First of all, I did enjoy my three day weekend. Sure, it was too short, but 1) that always happens and b) I have no one to blame but myself. You see, instead of just sitting around and doing nothing on Friday—my extra day off—I spent almost the entire day walking (and running) around Marquette shooting video and interviews for “Pieces of the Past” with my trusty production assistant, Jaxon.

But in my defense, I did get to sleep, uhm, ten minutes later than I usually do Friday. So that's almost like taking the day off, right?

I know; I know. All I ever do is complain about not having any time to relax, so what do I go out and do on the one day I'm supposed to take time to relax? Yup.

That's a really winning formula I've stumbled upon here, isn't it?

At least I was able to gather material for parts of six (or seven) different video segments, which means that I've gathered most (but not all) of the footage I'll need to put together all the segments I plan on doing this time around. And before you point this out...yes, I know that I didn't need to do another series of “Pieces”. We've already had this discussion. I told you I was an idiot for even considering it in the first place.

And for one of the few times in my life, I was right.

8-)

On that note, I'll leave you with one of the segments that I put together before I spent a day of relaxation not relaxing. I like telling stories...what can I say?
