ATTACK OF THE ASSHAIR!

This past weekend....hey...wait, it hasn't ended yet...well, THIS WEEKEND, I've been scurrying between Middletown and Brooklyn. After a brief stay at the Riley's, Devon and I drove right past the convenient train stop in Middletown for the more familiar one in Harrison (hour and 1/2 away..doh).

A friend of a friend (hereafter known as "my friend") Yvette needed some Final Cut expertise and I was more than happy to provide it. Her place in Manhattan was actually an office building that just happened to have all the right 'apartment' fixings inside. With brand-new, grant-supplied equipment in tow, she's poised to establish her own production company - and if that means more freelance editing for me, then yippee! The stuff we threw together was a mock-up of a children's show she's going to use for an audition tape, but her real ambition is to simply build puppets for a living. Her skills are across the board...voice acting, sculpture, marionettes, production...check her out if you want.

Dev and I viewed a couple apartments...one was spacious but the landlord = shady, the other was small and expensive, but it had an attached private garden that doubled the space!

larger apt: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
smaller apt: 1 2 3 4

Last night I partied with a solid 30 people, all geeks, at this guy Alan's house up in Saratoga. Highlights included playing this really cool D&D inspired poker game, being duped into taking a shot of 110% proof Chartruse by this lawyer chick who totally lied about its contents, and staying at a fun, 'mildly intoxicated' level through some rounds of Kings. Right now I'm gonna head back over there and...well, if it's interesting enough, you'll hear about it. IMAGE DUMP!
