In trying something new, I’ve included an audio recording of my post. It’s not word for word – you can read if you want but don’t have to, unless you don’t like the sound of my voice. I can get a voice modulator like in Scream. Maybe I will also do audio for my poems – but I must get comfortable with my voice first.
As a child when I would walk from one room to the next to get something and forget what I wanted when I got there, my Grandma, aunts and my Mom would tell me to go back where I was to remember. It still works. I spend a lot of time walking back and forth and asking, “What am I doing here again?” I don’t fully understand my mind and it’s fascinating.
If you try to ride a bicycle upside down you’ll get nowhere fast, if the bicycle is upside down. However, if you are upside down on a right-side up bicycle you will move at about 1/10 the speed of darkness. However else, if you and the bicycle are upside down you will travel twenty-two times as fast as the speed of sound. Try it!
I’m working up the courage to attend an open mic; I will require additional nerveitude to get on stage and recite a poem. This weekend I learned that a 12-second video produces 367 frames at 24 fps (NTS: that’s 24 images loading per second – more frames produce a smoother animation).
I’ve written down my instructions:
- Film or find a video
- Edit video
- Import video
- Trace video
- Export video
UGH! Rotoscoping is not as simple as I initially thought but once I remove what I don’t need, I will have fewer frames to trace. I can also use the layer duplication feature to save temps.
Once I get the hang I will see how many frames I can complete in an hour – that will give me an idea of how long the process will take – not including finding/making a video. And I have no idea about editing/adding sound but I don’t believe I have to worry about that right now.

I got the brains
You got the looks
Let’s make lots of money
My car’s parked outside
Afraid it doesn’t work
I’m looking for a partner
Someone who gets things fixed
Ask yourself this question
Do you wanna to be rich?

Lately, whenever I send the boys something to read, a poem or a joke, and they don’t get it, I walk over and pimp slap them with my Smithsonian Oceanology hardcover book. Now they get everything which makes me happy and also not happy because I cannot slap them with the book anymore. (I will find other reasons.)
Before I get into my next relationship I want to be a good partner and part of that is realizing I cannot say out loud whatever is in my head, “I don’t wanna have sex with you anymore, you’re boring.” Also, I do want my own room. You know how I feel about sleepovers. And I definitely want my own bathroom. Also … it is dreadfully important that I have my own kitchen – because if I don’t, I will cause behemoth suffering.
