Dad, Mom, and I went to a barbeque tonight held in honour of all the volunteers in town. Dad and Mom of course were invited for playing the violin and piano over at the old folks home. The BBQ was being held in the parking lot of Redi Enterprises and as we approached there was an older man walking toward his car – he appeared to be in his 70’s and looked normal in every way. Dad said hello to the man, but he didn’t respond in a way that I thought he was just ignoring us. Dad then asked the man if he worked here. The elderly man looked a little confused, said no, and then walked away. Mom and I were laughing to ourselves when Dad says, give him a few minutes; he’ll get it.

I went to Medicine Hat and then Calgary on Wednesday with Anna-Maria. We went to Medicine Hat so that Anna could pick up Jakob and take him to Calgary. I needed to go to Calgary to pick up Jackie’s car while she is in California and I must say that her car is a lot nicer than mine. I also started this post about 3 hours ago but forgot about it while chatting with Mom and Dad and explaining to them how to install some stuff on their computer.

I finished my last exam yesterday. It’s nice to be done school, I now have to go out and get a job. I hate getting a job. I was hoping a job would just fall into my lap, but until that happens I suppose I’ll just lounge around here… oops I mean go out and find one.

I guess we will never know the truth about Andrew Carlssin. He has apparently disappeared!

I can’t believe I was suckered.

I sent out a mass email telling some of my friends about the blog and the new flash movie that I completed. I remember some of them asked me to update them if I ever finished it, and as for the others that didn’t know about it? Well you can enjoy now. Please don’t be shy – share your comments. I’m getting a lot faster at making these flash movies, and who knows, maybe I’ll even get “good” at it one day. Thanks for visiting.

It’s almost time to get the kayaks out. I’ve been thinking a lot about going kayaking now that it’s been warm for so many days straight. The water is still probably too cold, but I wonder if it will be warm enough in May? I’m glad to be living here in Lethbridge where I’ll only have to make a short drive to the Belly River, which is of course my favourite kayaking river.

I have another New Media Final presentation tomorrow. I was going to make a flash movie using the story line that Gary came up with – the one about the bottomless pit, but instead I just finished up the one that I had started last summer – the Jeff Millionaire one. I’ll post it soon; it’s still not done! I have to present it at 2:00 tomorrow.

Well I’ve known for a while that I should be looking for new roommates but now I really will have to find somebody new because my current roommate just told me that he’s moving out in July or August. At least I won’t ever have to worry about the rabbit anymore. Steve Meldrum phoned me tonight to catch up on what I’ve been up to. Apparently he doesn’t read the blog. Anyway he is going away to Europe with his wife, Monique, for the summer. I knew they were going but the thing that surprised me was that they sold the house. From what I could tell he seems pretty happy about his situation.

I finished the book for my still images class. It’s all ready for the presentation today at 2:00. Here is a mediated version. It is highly compressed and on a good server so it shouldn’t take long to download, but the version that I copied to VHS is much nicer.

Update: I took down the file.

I’m back in business baby! I guess it was just a virus all along. Now I just have to fix what I broke while trying to fix it. At least my Internet connection is back up.
