Bacon Day: Bacon-Crust Pizza

Had another bacon-tastic day with Chris & Julie, and this time I made a "Bacon-Crust Pizza".  Or at least that's the name I'm sticking with for now.  Man, I gotta tell ya, it was totally insane.  Just absolutely insane.  The thing weighed about 15 lbs, was packed with 4 lbs of bacon... so good though.  Sooooo.... so good.

I put together this video to mark the occasion, and there's only one thing I learned from making the video: I am a ridiculous human being.  Just watching the things that I did in a hurry that I thought were good ideas... yeah, I'm an odd man.  Though I guess you all knew that already.

Back From Retreat

So in case anyone missed what was going on last week, I was on retreat, which I posted last week, but it looks like nobody saw it without me posting it also to facebook and google+

Well I'm back, and it was a fantastic retreat, in case you were wondering.  It is good to be renewed!!!  And, as it so happens, on the last day of retreat I got the idea for this "Alter Christus" picture.  Yeah, totally unrelated I know, but it was funny to me, so I share it with you all now.

Oh, and no updates again this week because I was too busy being renewed on retreat n stuff.

I'm on Retreat!

What's that? No updates this week?  Are you super disappointed?

I hope not.

Thing is, this week I'm gone on retreat, and I haven't had time in getting all my work done prior to the retreat, nor do I have time while I'm actually on retreat.

Sorrys!  :(

In case you're wondering, "hey Steve, shouldn't you be not doing things like posting to your blog while on retreat?" you'd be right.  I shouldn't.  And I'm not!

:O

Prepare for your mind to be blown.

It's called "auto-scheduling", and I actually prepared this blog posting before I went on retreat.  In fact, I actually schedule my posts ahead of time every week.

You may now find a suitable receptacle in which you can tidy up the shattered remains of your mind.

So anyhow, please pray for me this week, and I'll be back with another post by next Tuesday, since I may have a little time post-retreat to actually prepare something special for you guys!  God bless!!!

I Thought We Went Digital to Make Things LESS Confusing

This Week's Tuesday Update:

Sketch Media Animation

• Bacon Man  

Regarding this week's update, Chris and Julie wanted to experience how I go about animating stuff, so I showed them a quick and dirty animation.  This was basically at their request, and based on a snippet of our audio recordings.  So... hardly a full animation, but it works for me as an update!!!!
:)

In other news... had an fun conversation with my sister about a crazy looking watch she found online at watchco, which looks to be about the most complicated way of trying to tell time.  Here's a piece of our convo:

Jen: it drives me crazy
Jen: good grief
Jen: so what time is it?
Steve: "what time is it?"
           "let me take a look"
           .....
           "well?"
           "just give me a minute.."
           .....
           ....
           ...
           "I think it's... no wait.."
Jen: hahah
Jen: it looks like many times to me
Steve: it is all of the times
Jen: hahaha
Jen: they broke the space time continuum
Steve: they MADE the space time continuum
Jen: ahahaha
Jen: the ones with the graph are crazy too
Steve: :S
Jen: did you notice you get a free knife with every $200 purchase?!
Steve: um, great?
Jen: 'cuz nothing goes better with a watch than a knife
Steve: well, you need to protect yourself while time traveling

Good times.
