So today I talked to the Namingway. For those of you who don't know who/what that is, it's from Final Fantasy IV he's this little rabbit(?) creature thing. Technically he is a Hummingway, a group of little rabbit things that live on the moon... ANYWAY not the point. Namingway is special in the game in that he makes it so you can Rename your characters. So I Namingway'd myself (?)... Whatever, I changed my name online for a few reasons. The main one being my new job where I'll be working with school kids, my Mom suggested it/bugged me till I did it, so hopefully the kids don't look me up and see the morally objectionable things I do/say/write/film. The other reason is cause I figure it's not too "professional" to have all my craziness online, not in like the creative sense, if I'm going for something creative, this is who I am and can't be ashamed of that. But since people have been getting better at the interwebs, and lets face it, everyone can google, it's easier to find people and try and see who they are before doing things like hiring them n shit, and it's kinda like "If I can do the job, and am qualified what the fuck does it matter if I'm crazy on my off time?" "Well, that's just not the type of person we want working for us, we're a family company, and I just can't get behind you making skits about girls who got so high they think they had an abortion when they were never really pregnant to begin with." To that I of course say "ONE TIME!" Oh which I guess brings me to my next point, in case you didn't know, I got a freakin job! woot, very excited. I start in January, so I decided to do the name change right at the end of this year.
New Year!
Well the new year is upon us. 2011 was quite a year for me, I graduated from college, I started a skit show, I started this blog, I found a really nice sweater that goes with practically anything! (Ok, maybe that last one's not really that great) Point is, I'm not very good at looking back at the last 365.25 days and going "Oh remember when?" usually it takes looking at pictures, or someone asking me that question and I go "Oh shit, yeah remember when?" But I know that this year was a good one, I can feel it in my big bones. I am pretty freakin happy with my lot in life, I know I'm not exactly where I want to be, but I'm working towards it, and that's a promising start to a new year. I haven't been updating the blog recently, but I'll try harder with the new year, but there will be some changes around here, mostly due to the fact that I can't work on scripts for "Fix My Problem!" "Shots of Sketch 3" and then separate ones for the blog. So this might become more of an opinion blog in the weeks to come, with some scripts thrown in. We shall see, all I know is that I can't ever let myself stop creating, writing, acting, thinking, dreaming (And I have some pretty fucked up dreams, another time) and sharing. So Happy New Years everyone!
