The pain improved a lot Tues eve, though I'm feeling twinges again now. Saw "Half-Blood Prince" again; it was just as good the 2nd time.

Kidney stones slicing through me like hot, angry little knives. It's been going on day after day for weeks. So stressed & exhausted...

SO EXCITING!! As a designer I've wanted an open-source spot color matching system for a long time. One is in the making! http://ping.fm/QqJ7S

2008 was SO productive and I was on a fast-track to success, shooting often and getting better with each one. 2009 has been disastrous. Everything has stalled. It's all been on hold for many months. My career and dreams are stone cold dead in the water.

Ice skating (for the first time in my life) with Karrin was awesome! Watching "The Shining" now, all full of Taco Bell.

I thought for sure the song in the Cadillac SRX commercial was by Morrissey/The Smiths. It's not. The bit they used sure sounds like it. http://ping.fm/6DaVj (the bit they use is at 1:25)

I'm really seriously starting to hate that commercial for the Palm Pixie, with the awful pseudo-Chipmunks music.

Sketchy Santas. Yikes! http://ping.fm/yWb8J

So frustrated with the kidney problems. Go away, pain, I want to do work & feel good.

Taking Moxxie to have his photo taken on Santa's lap. Unfortunately, I won't be the photographer.
