A candy-colored clown they call the sandman. Tiptoes to my room every night.

Time to get all personal and bare my soul to the world for a bit. I've needed something to write on here, and I'm having a shit day at work, so I might as well post something while I'm waiting for someone to answer my email. If you don't want to read someone just getting shit off their chest, then move along to the next post.

I had a dream last night...

Walking around on broken leg.

I realize my last post was very fragmented with lots of really short sentences. I was sitting at the hospital bored out of my mind at the time, trying to write the post on the Blogpress app on my ipod.

Anyway, the day my dad had that prep surgery, the doctors told him that they would have him out by 11am the following day. He actually got out of there at 6pm. We hurried to the hospital for 11, and ended up sitting there for 7 hours. It was so boring. I also hate hospitals, so that whole time was hell for me.

Since we got home, my dad has been doing well, he's able to get around the house on one foot much better than I expected. He's pretty positive about the whole thing, although he is weary of how long the whole process is going to take. He has to have this contraption anchored into his leg for 2-3 weeks. After that they will take it off and put a steel plate and screws in his ankle and then put a cast over it. Then he has another 8-10 weeks to recover.

It's going to be a little rough, but he seems like he is determined to not let any of this get him down.

I'll be back later with a post on my new car I bought a week ago.

Hospital fun

So, my dad broke his ankle really bad. He was sent to the hospital by his doctor for surgery.

They did the surgery yesterday. It ends up that wasn't the actual surgery, it was just prep. He has to come back in 2 weeks for the actual thing. Now he has a big brace contraption installed on his ankle.




I came in to visit him. They said he'd be out by 11AM. All he was waiting on was physical therapy to check on him. Now it's 2PM and therapy has still not come by. We're all getting annoyed. We just want to go home.

Hopefully they get here soon so we can take him home.

I'm Back. Baltimore Orioles #1!*

 Anyway, I am going to be trying to make more of a conscious effort to post on this blog. My plan is to diversify and post not just about me, but things that interest me: Movies, games, music, comics. Not really reviews, per say, like I did originally. Just what ever comes to mind. I have two articles I am working on right now for tonight.

 Also, I'm looking for people that want to join up with Bobbson Productions. When that happens, I will give those people permission to also post on the "company"'s blog.

A little less conversation, a little more action.

This weekend I'm not on call. I have some plans Saturday, but Sunday is completely free. I'm charging my camera's batteries. I have no script. I don't care, I just have to shoot something. P.S. I'm not dead.

You, doin' that Thing you do...

The Thing 2011, while seeming to win over part of the general population, is being considered a failure on many levels by critics and horror die-hards.

One of the largest complaints I have seen in regards to the film is it's CGI effects. Almost every shot in the film that involves The Thing are in very amateur, unfinished looking CGI; a complete departure from the brilliant practical effects in the original. Another is that the characters have little backstory or personality, and that instead of building paranoia and suspense with the characters, the film devolves into little more than a creature feature film. These two things run very contrary to what I had heard from the cast & crew during filming. They promised they were sticking very closely in tone, and effect wise, to Carpenter's 1982 film. It appears they did go out there with good intentions. What went wrong? Maybe it wasn't even their fault.

Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'...

Well. 4 months since my last post.

Yeah, I just have a boring life. That's why I originally set out to have a review blog. It's so much easier for me to write about media I've consumed than about myself.

There has been no movement in production (as I am sure you can see in the production blog). I just have no time to do anything. My job is taking up most of my time, and the rest of it I am spending sleeping because of the exhaustion I face from said job.

My job continues to grow more tedious and stressful as I grow to resent it and stop caring about it more and more. My responsibilities there double or triple while my pay and the time I have to tend to them stays the same. I'm putting in countless unpaid hours a day just to try and keep up, and even then it is starting to slip away from me. I need a change in scenery.

I just can't help but feeling I'm throwing my life away.
