A bit forward

Tonight i went into the westfield toilets to do a wee.

I was standing at the urinal thing doing my business, then i noticed in front of me was an advertisment.

It was a photo of a man and a woman (westifeld customer care lady and westfield secutiy man)
With the slogan “we’re here to help you”

Actually i was doing quite fine without their help.

another one

I met her on the escalators

By Howie

Strolling through the mall
Feeling kind of lucky
Getting new socks
And getting new undies
Up to level 3 I must go
I cant afford myer its off to lowes

And there she was
Smiling in her bright red top.
I was going up
She was going down
Our eyes connected
I new it was love.

I met her on the escalators
I saw her in the foodcourt
We passed near the supermarket
And later near the elevators

She’s gonna be mine
I can tell by the look in her eyes
I can tell as she goes by
Down to level 2
Up to level 3
The escalators are bringing her to me

I walked past a jewller
And picked out a ring
I was thinking flowers
I was thinking dinner
It was time to propose
It was now or never

I snuck up behind her
In front of centre stage
Down on my knees
Begging her please
Will you marry me
My escalator girl

She burst out in tears
Her arms wrapped around me
Yes she cried
And yes she cried again
Please take my hand
Be my escalator man!

We got married in the carpark
With bridesmaids from Ikea
The reception in woolworths
Honeymoon in starbucks

She is mine
I can tell by the look in her eyes
I can tell as she goes by
Down to level 2
Up to level 3
The escalators have brought her to me
The escalators have brought her to me
The escalators have brought her to me
The escalators have brought her to me

procrastination and distraction

I have two computers at work one is a PC and the other is a Mac, the Mac has voice recognition and it tells jokes, So here is in a example, i just asked it to tell me a joke.

Me: Tell me a joke

Mac: Knock! Knock!

Me: Who’s there?

Mac: Tad

Me: Tad who?

Mac: Tads all folks!

Mumma came home at a quarter past 3
While puppa was dusting the sofa

Puppa bought a bum bag thinking it was ok
Mumma took me clubbing at the age of 10
Puppa took me shoe shopping to kmart again

He’s my jumper knitting puppa
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
She’s my truck driving mumma
He’s my jumper knitting puppa
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

I love my Mumma and I love my Puppa
I’m sure deep down that they both love me
But mumma I don’t want no tattoo again
And puppa stop knitting slippers for my friends
Yeah Puppa stop knitting slippers for my friends

She’s my truck driving mumma
He’s my jumper knitting puppa
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
She’s my truck driving mumma
He’s my jumper knitting puppa
Oh yeah

Imagine if……..

Just say hyperthetically you were editing a wedding video and you where going through the tapes about to capture some more footage onto the computer. But then you find something. You find that the entire reception has been recorded badly by the camera probabyl due to unclean recording heads. You realise that this camera was the main camera used in the reception and that its unusable the entire length of the 1 hour tape.

so just hyperthetically this happened, how would you respond?

THe Overnight Express experiences some mechanical failures

So here I am at 2:30 in the morning blogging whilst editing a wedding video.

I have just finnished a rough cut of the ceremony which is 56 minutes in length. I was planning on powering through the night until its all finnished.
But i have come across some mechanical failures. The problem is that they have nothing to do with the computer. Its me thats breaking down.
Editing requires quite a lot of concentration and patience and stuff and i think my body isnt up for that right now. My left eye is going crazy, its twitching like no bodies business, and i have this cramp thing in my stomach or ribs or somewhere that hurts. So i’m taking the bold step of going to bed now for a few hours to see if my body feels any better after a few hours sleep.

The final wedding video i am reckoning will be about 2 hours long.

So so long. I tell you what when iget married i want the service to be about 15 minutes long and the reception well who needs a video of the reception.

So time for some shut eye.
