Getting the best use out of my system

I have 2 more episodes of “You Can’t Do That On XBox!” in the pipeline. Feel free to subscribe to SNews if you want to see them (or my youtube channel).

Was rendering a newer intro for the new episodes last night and I decided to sleep while it rendered. Sadly it only got 45 minutes into the project before it croaked. Apparently it didn’t like having been working and playing for 48 hours… I’m currently rendering the scene after a restart and all seems well.

Update

It failed again. I’m now trying to export it via the stand alone encoder.

Early Morning Open Thread

Ok! I know I’ve fallen a tad behind on my blogging. But I finally have 3 days off in a row to make up for it hopefully.

 

I finally finished my project for SNews, it will be up here and at the SNews site later on. I hope it turns out ok, I’ve been drinking and video editing at the same time. Sometimes interesting, sometimes very interesting.

Tonight I stayed an hour longer than what I was supposed to. They give you a bunch of things to do and not enough time to do it all, expecting every part of it to be finished. They’re only going easy on me because I’m new over there, but I have no fucking clue how I’m supposed to be getting better at it if I keep taking longer to get something done.

Work

Half Baked

Yesterday was a very busy day. Woke up early for an auction for a logitech G510 keyboard, won it, got dressed and walked to the street fair. Lots of nice food and stuff there, but didn’t buy any of it. I wasn’t hungry plus the stuff there was pretty overpriced. Went to work afterwards. I was so busy that I never got to take my break, only a lunch. Lots of baking, cleaning, giving children cookies, etc. Have even more of it tomorrow.

Oh it’s gonna be fun…

Saturday Night Open Thread

So I managed to get a good nights rest after having stayed up for 24 hours… Worked in bakery again today, did alright. Even wrote on a cake. Cakes are not lies over there. Will be doing another shift tomorrow over there. I hate 8 day stretches…

 

I’m thinking tomorrow I’ll try to hit the street fair before work. Hopefully I can arise from bed. It’s hard to get me in it but once in I practically want to live there…

Hobbies / Work2

Early to bed, early to rise, early to get off and pass out.

Did some more work in premiere and after effects. Also played a bit of L4D2 on the side, didn’t run into any asshats but still got some nice footage. A hunter and jockey attacked me at the same time and I managed to come out of that without any rape whatsoever.

Will probably be on tomorrow afternoon sometime assuming I don’t pass out after work. I have a full day tomorrow which means it’s time to bring my lunch box! Thai fried rice awaits.
