Thursday, 1/12

It's going...thanks for asking.

A week ago I wrote about how purely insane my month of January has turned out to be. I've had one of two of you inquire as to how it's going, and I can proudly say that I haven't dropped dead.

Well, at least not yet.

There are many good things, actually. “Lights, Camera, Marquette”, the show Jack & I are doing at Kaufman two weeks from tonight, is pretty much done. I haven't written a newspaper article about it yet, but everything else seems to be done. And I'm using this upcoming Monday—a day I have off for the first time ever, because it's King Day—to shoot a bunch of stuff for “The Greasier the Spoon”, the documentary I'm making for the History Center.

So I am trying to make the most of my precious time.

However, the computer transition here at work isn;t going quite as smoothly. As soon as one problem is dealt with another pops up. You'd think it would be fairly straightforward, but it's not. We're transitioning to a new system that works—kinda, sorta—like our old one, but there's enough of a difference that that “kinda, sorta” isn't as comforting as it should be. I've been referring to this whole process with this analogy—it's like trying to go from German to English. They're related languages, but they don't have much in common.

So I have that going for me. We'll see how it turns out.

Ads I wrote before, I'll make it through somehow. I'm not quite sure how, but I will make it through. Just keep your fingers crossed for me.
