telephone pictionary

Happy Go Lucky on Flickr - Photo Sharing!

my friend Luz posted this on her blog today. it's a round of "Telephone Pictionary", and i think it might be my new favorite game. for groups. besides nerts, of course.

anyway, before you click on the link, let me explain the game.
  1. someone writes a short sentence. anything. they pass it to the person on the left.
  2. that person draws a picture, accurate as possible, of the sentence.
    1. the drawer then folds the paper from the top, covering the original sentence but not the drawing.
    2. he then passes the paper to the left.
  3. the next person looks at the drawing, then writes a sentence describing it.
  4. he folds the paper down over the picture, then passes it to the left.
  5. and so on.
if you have several people playing (more than 5), the results can be pretty hilarious, apparently. ok, you can go look at the image now.

also: we finished moving out of our apartment in jackson. there's something nice about finally finishing something. even if you have to vacuum.

strange things are happenin to me

i've been away for quite awhile. i am ashamed of myself. my new job is spent almost entirely on the computer, so perhaps that will be of some help. also, my intention to begin adhering to a more "gtd" (that's getting things done) mentality might help too.

i say "might", for obvious reasons.

so, a lot's happened in my life since we last spoke. let me explain--no, there is too much. let me sum up:
  • i got a new job as a producer/videographer for charter media (a cable company)
  • i graduated. woot.
  • i went to kenya to shoot film for a new company called "fair trade flowers"
  • the new company offered me a better job, so i took it
  • i quit charter (after 5 weeks!), and became the marketing director for ftf
  • subsequently, i applied to an apartment in memphis (where hq for the new job is)
  • the apartment complex screwed up, and we lost our apartment. or at least, they told us we couldn't move til august (!)
  • we found a new apartment in a southern suburb of memphis. the catch? its in mississippi
  • 4 days later, we moved
  • now i'm in Houston, enjoying my one-week summer break that my new boss let me take.

sheesh.

just typing that out was tiring. to give you some perspective, all of that happened since the [edit:] end of april.

ok, hopefully that's enough breakfast blogging for a while. if i come up with something interesting to say soon, i'll be sure to post it. i gotta get at least one good one in here.
