There was a quake?

I slept through it. My dad calling is what clued me in.

Local 700

I'm in the Editor's Guild! I got my hours, finished all my paper work and took the required safety class. All I need to do now is get a Union job and start banking hours!

A slighty lighter look...

Today I went two shades lighter. It's a little hard to see in my computer station light...but you can kinda tell.

Making My Way...Kinda

I'm cutting a little 3 minute thing for work tonight. (I'm waiting for things to import, hence the time to blog) So... yeah, that's kind of exciting. And, when I Love Money airs on VH1 in July, episode 10 has a little transition I cut still in the episode. I mean, we're talking 20 seconds tops, but still...baby steps, baby steps.

Hanging out by TV and on his window perch. He's so spoiled.
