Another week has gone by without being blogged. This one wasn't crazy like the last one; I've just been focusing my attention more on the Garg site and also on heavy-duty relaxation.
Last Friday was the first Mason Proper concert since the CD release party back in September. It was pretty good, but certainly not the best I've been to. Maybe everyone's energy had been drained by the fact that it was -20 degrees outside. I managed to travel everywhere by car that day except for the walk from the Garg office to the Blind Pig, which was enough to deprive my feet of sensation for most of the rest of the night. It was DAMN COLD.
I spent the rest of the weekend exclusively indoors, all the way up to Monday night, when I was forced to leave the apartment to go to a screening of My Fair Lady. Tamar had been gone for most of the weekend at a conference for her Honors Fraternity, and she came back with a pretty terrible stomach flu. I think I successfully escaped catching it, since she seems to be recovering now and I don't feel bad.
On Tuesday, we got the issue back. It looks pretty good except for some printing issues. We screened our first video projects and mine got a pretty good response. Also, Obama was inaugurated. I feel I need to include this for posterity. I listened to his speech on the laptop speakers of someone in my discussion section for film history. It was a beautiful, albeit cold, day.
Yesterday I finally got to purchase CS4 and Final Cut, the latter of which came in a 20-pound box that I later discovered contained its 4 volume manual. It is truly a girthy program.
Today I'm cleaning the apartment because it's sorely in need of it and I'm still slightly worried about lingering Tamar germs. I am also baking bread and attempting to get a mixed starter going for further breads. I feel incredibly domestic. It's probably really just a way for me to procrastinate instead of looking for internships and writing some papers due next week.
