This week! This week has been awesome!
Awesome Item the First: For work I volunteered to do a video project on women's health for a big report my department releases every two years. I spent Monday-Wednesday interviewing basically anyone I could get who happened to be female about their favorite exercise, what they think a healthy diet is, what it means to be healthy, etc., and then yesterday I worked from home (...working from home is awesome and I need to figure out how to do that more often) to edit said video. SKILLS BUILT THROUGH FANNISH VIDDING LED TO ACTUAL MONEY. THIS IS GREAT.
Awesome Item the Second: One of the grad students I hang out with a bit at work and I are going hiking/photographing next weekend at a park I've been wanting to revisit for a year or so now.
Awesome Item the Third: Tomorrow, since I have to go downtown to get myself yet another lens cap*, I'm going to take myself to a public skating session in preparation for starting my lessons next month.
Awesome Item the Fourth: SEATTLE IN TWO WEEKS, OMG.
Awesome Item the Fifth: I got a vid idea on the way home from work today. It should be entertaining.
Awesome Item the Sixth: This video. Seriously cool. Apparently it's in real time, which is frankly amazing.
* I lost my current one while rescuing a baby duck. Well, okay, I lost it while I was leaning over a pond to investigate what was wrong with a baby duck (it had a bread tie/twisty tie wrapped around its neck several times and was miserably trying to pluck it off with its beak), and since I couldn't get to said duck without going for a swim, I ended up calling the park service to rescue it, but it's all in how you elide things, yes?
