So I’m kinda hoping I can do something pretty cool for my final animation project, but I am unsure how decent a program anim8r (or whatever the hell it is called) is… and if it will let me do what I want. It is a constant fight with it… but maybe it’s not so much that it sucks as I just don’t understand it. The instructions I have for the ‘follow along’ mini projects suck. So maybe it’s just the directions.

I’m heading to a class session tonite to hopefully get a better grasp on it… I want to be able to do a cool final project. I’ll prolly skip math because of it. The class would be at 7, and math ends at 430ish… so I’d get home and 5 and have to head back out at 630… and if I stayed home all day I’d get more done. Which is prolly a good thing since I have a history test and a psych paper due in the next few days… and they could use some work. Plus a math lab.

So far in math this chapter it’s nothing I couldn’t figure out myself, and reading will definitely be just as good as being there. It’s funny…. if this were an online course, that would rock… since I really don’t need to be in a class for that.

Mousie is being very demanding of my hands… ugh. She’s all cute and cuddly tho… so it’s hard to be mad at her, or to tell her to go away. I may be just a bed to her… but it’s cute.

I want to read. I want to read books that I want to read… not books that I have to read. I have Eddings sitting there, staring at me, and I can’t muster up the ambition to read it. I’m always worried that I have other work to do. sigh When the semester is over, I’m gonna go on a reading frenzy. I think I’ll make a list… I still have yet to read the assload of Piers Anthony on the shelf, or the Weiss…

It’s odd… I’ll spend plenty of time slacking off on stupid little things, because I don’t think it’s something that’ll hold my attention… but they do anyway. oh well…

Otto got a raise… that should cover the rising gas prices. ;)
$2.23 and $2.43…. that’s how much gas was last night… In 97/98 it was under a dollar for even the premium at times. :( Cars suck. I wonder how long riding would take to get to school. I’m betting too long… and people drive like total asses and there is barely any shoulder on those stupid 2 lane roads. Oh well. Maybe another time.

I’m working on a painting for my mom. I have no idea how it will end up, but it’s at least fun to make. It’s fun to have an idea in mind and a purpose to something other than for credit in class or somesuch. All that I have to do in class is from something… the surrealist piece is not from something… yet it is… so it makes it not 100% from me in a way. By the way… I hate waiting for paint to dry. And blue and green take forever.

Speaking of painting and junk, I’m gonna get to work. That, and the bathroom fan is bugging me.
