Change

Trailer: Surrogates

Music: "Tangerine Sky" - Kottonmouth Kings

I have a new goal in life... I want to work less but get paid more. 

You might wonder where I've been the past month or two. And to be honest, me too. Freaking work has sucked the life out of me. I feel like my new theme song is "Every Day is Exactly the Same" by NIN. While some people are afraid of change, I'm begging for it. Hopefully the upcoming bachelor party in Miami, and bachelor party #2 in Dallas, and the wedding on 11/1 will be a big enough 'change' to get me out of this funk. 

But enough about that. Let's move on to less depressing things. Like EPIC failures

...or http://www.nanowrimo.org/. 

Yeah, nonwrimo was a site PM'ed to me by a fellow writer. Really cool idea. If one of your hobbies is to write, I highly recommend taking a look at the site.  There are 20 days left until it starts. Basically you have 30 days to write a 50K word novel, and you have to start from scratch on the 1st. It's an interesting concept--don't worry about editing, just write and worry about throughput.

Speaking of awesomeness (not really a good transition but w/e), Android is gaining some more momentum (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/10/08/BU141A327G.DTL&type=tech). Did I call it or what?

• Windows 8 and 9 to have 128 bit architecture (for the techno impaired, most machines are 32 bit right now, 64 bit is the 'new thing' and now 128 is coming out). http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/173442/windows_8_details_emerge.html
