as an elephant eats.

hey there. remember how i said i'd post more 8 bit stuff as i finished it? well, i finally finished another one.

i've realized that the fun of having multiple projects at once comes at the price of a slower development for each piece. simple, i know, but it's just started setting in. that means you may not be seeing these (or hearing them, rather) as often as i'd like. oh well.

here's my first of a few covers i'm working on. it's from a film which you'll probably have seen. i wish i'd had more to do for it, but i thought for now it would do as is since i really want to get to other projects. it may have more surgery later on... we'll see.

so here's the movie clip. as always, it's only a clip because blogger demands it be more than just a sound file. the visuals are strictly there to not make you stare at a plain black screen. if you want a copy, let me know. i'm sure i'll be able to get you one. also as always, you may want to be careful with your volume. you've been warned.

and thus, i give you, as an elephant eats.

i guess we'll see how long it is until the next one is up. could be a bit thanks to some tricky harmonies, but if you've waited this long for this one (as i know my severals of diehard fans have done) you'll be used to it.

so long, friends.

mopping with cute little animals.

so, i know i had a post something like ten hours ago saying to just wait because it may be a bit before i have another reason to post.

well, a reason came up sooner than i expected. on top of that, it actually has nothing to do with tunes like i said it probably would. oh well.

i clean bathrooms every morning starting at 4:30 am. as you can probably guess, things can get pretty interesting with everyone consistently being up at this time. (for a great example of this, check out my coworker laura's post about it.) part of cleaning the bathrooms is mopping.

here's a typical perspective. nothing fancy, just a simple stick to mop head view that doesn't allow much to be seen outside of it mopping up a (often bizzarre) collection of marks, hair, and spills. this is, after all, what it has as a purpose. to clean up what mop's good friend broom misses.








anyway, this morning we put a new mophead on the stick because the one we put first on essentially had been used as part of a bullet-proof vest, it was not working at all. it was referred to as "the devil" by travis and "a wet t-shirt" by kyle. this is unimportant, though, outside of the fact that it caused us to go downstairs, replace the mophead, and come back up. because we were carrying it up we were able to see it dry which is unusual, as its almost always in a bucket of consume eco-lyzer mopping solution.

on our way upstairs, i began using it as a sort of gandolf staff, and met this when i looked at it.

it's a kitty!

or maybe the antagonist from soul reaver for playstation. whatever.

either way, it's adorable. i'm mopping with something that is just tooooooo cute! these animals are cute enough that other cats have been able to even spark and internet pop culture icon. i smell a spin off.

so. expect to have this image in your inbox soon, along with "hilarious youtube clips" from your coworkers.
because it's adorable.

i'll try to have an interesting post up soon. but at five in the morning, this seemed like a post opportunity i couldn't afford to pass up.

shorts.(kind of boring)

hello everybody.

i feel a bit lame because i haven't been keeping up with my posts as of late despite some cool stuff happening. suffice to say that madtracker software and job hunting and sleeping have occupied a large amount of my time as of late.

well, all of that and law and order. i love law and order.

in the meantime, i have a few projects that i'm working in the digital music world that should be posted soon with any luck. much thanks to skyler for his input, by the way, which is proving extremely useful.

i'm currently trying to find a way to make this post somehow interesting despite it's entire purpose being only to say "read the next post, it's sure to be worth it."

so in the meantime, i'll make the note of the fact that i'm attempting to begin exercising. this includes a rather humorous trip to the di buy some cheap exercise clothing since i don't actually own any shorts, or anything outside of dress pants, corduroys, and jeans. being that i haven't worn anything at all in the realm of gym clothes since high school, we did what we could in trying to re-aquaint me with the uniform of a gym-goer. now, i'm not especially use to wearing shorts. therefore, the idea of wearing shorts that are even shorter than usual is a bit uncomfortable. to counteract the short factor, i decided to try out the large and xl pairs because they were the only ones that were looking like they would reach my knee.

i tried on the pair that seemed most likely to be the right length, and, well... i pulled a jared.


the shorts i wound up purchasing were indeed a bit shorter than the knee, but i guess fashion comes at the price of modesty at the gym. that's just the way it goes.

i'll let you know if anything funny happens involving a rowing machine or anything of the sort.
