Suzan and I headed out for a late dinner last night … the post-workout Ruby Tuesday’s run. As she sat across the table, we talked about the busy weekend taping more segments for Dragon*Con TV 2004.
“So, last year was a movie theme … this year is a cable system theme … what will next year’s theme be?”
AAAAAGGGGHHHH! I’m not even done with this year yet! Crazy wife!
I’m not as ‘done’ as I want to be, but farther ahead than I expected to be. We got a lot of quality videotape this weekend (no I won’t tell you what we’re up to yet … you’ll just have to wait). Of course, I’m behind in a lot of other life-aspects right now (housework, stuff in the office, time at home with the spouse, etc.) … but still ahead in many aspects of life (finally got my brown belt, still have the house, haven’t killed the cats even though they probably deserve it).
I have to head out of town next week. Perhaps I can catch up on some video editing on that layover in LAX.
