blah

i haven't had the chance to post from work (as i like to do), so this entry's not going to have any images. but i might come up with one at the end.

i'm sort of in this delirium right now, i don't know exactly why -- but between the working and commuting between SF and mothafuggin cupertino and the bicycling and the staying up late talking about virtual reality there's probably a reason.

i've been thinking about how i can take time off and do cool shit. one option is going to grad school (still not sure whether to go on an acadamia or practice track, though). another is to be unemployed for a while and just work on illustrations, make billowing clothes, read and write, develop incredible hacking skills, et cetera. Get some fuggin time to put together a great portfolio -- not that piece of crap job-hunting one i have right now!

There's another part of my head that is thinking about really pursuing publishing. And that part of me is having a gory duel with the fat, top-hat wearing part of me that will kill me for taking a pay cut. (Not unusually, I think the publishing one will win, because it's more thin and athletic).

Anyway, there's a new development at work. Apple has a headed in an interesting direction with itself ... and hopefully, it only gets more interesting -- not ever more sterile. Goddam Steve.
