So as the weekend came to an end I realized that I wasn’t any better so I just called in sick. If you saw the photo from Sunday then you know that I probably shouldn’t be going into work at a place that involves microphones.. However, being in IT makes it some what possible for me to do work from home. Remote desktop and VPN makes this life possible. However, I can’t see what is going on physically. I also still need to swap my offsite storage backups. #FML
WTF Man! Seriously this isn’t getting any better. No one else is effected by what I have so I can’t say for sure it’s contagious. All I know is that it’s getting harder to open my mouth, harder to talk and see, and harder to eat. My gums inside my mouth are in serious pain. Today I made a smoothie thinking it’ll be easy to drink my meal but no that was not the case. Just trying to be strong here but it’s not easy right now.
So my weekend comes up and I spent it indoors away from everything I can think of because I can barely see now. #FML not sure what else to say other than, nothing to see here. :-(
So I went out to Vegas feeling a bit crappy but still made the best of it. By the end of the trip, crappy turned into wtf is going on. Later after getting home I spent another 2 and half hours to get told, “Let’s see what a blood test tells us.” Took nearly an hour and a half to just get seen. Oh wells hopefully Monday has something to tell us.
Pic related topic, saw this on the way back omg I want one so bad LOL
Yes, it may be an optical illusion but there is nothing wrong with a little “Theater of the Mind.” Could you imagine having that many lenses? The arsenal of that line-up is immense! I can’t lie, it make me very happy. Too happy to form good sentence.
Let’s face it, Vegas is an amazing place. Sure it’s the city of sin but I don’t see anything wrong with it. I’m here for work to be scoping out all the stuff we could use at the stations. We found a lot of good information but it doesn’t seem like radio is that big a deal anymore at NAB. Which is a loss I think but as the world goes more Visual in all things, it is getting hard to find support in all things.
Anyways, here’s New York, New York in it’s night of glory. Lot of construction still going on on the strip but it is starting to look up. After walking the convention floor we ended up walking from one part of the strip to the middle then back down on the other side. Nothing wrong with a little long distance walking lol
Trying to get as much done before Vegas/NAB tomorrow and this load came out to about 300+ lbs. It’s amazing how much dust something can acquire over a set of years. These got so much dust on them the tops were a whole other color. LOL Oh wells they are out of the way now.
So nothing really too monumental about today. I took some other photographs but they are for work stuff and I don’t feel like posting that. I had a thought when I got home though about taking a pic of my little dead girl from The Walking Dead Vinyl Collection. I thought about the fact that the show is between seasons and I can’t wait. However, Game of Thrones is on now but that week wait is just a killer. The stories that I get into really have me at the edge of my seat all the time and I really wish I could just watch TV all the time. Oh wells.
Some might get mad at me for calling it that but honestly, it is what it is. When was the last time some of you went to see a movie at the Drive-In? Honestly. I can’t even remember the last movie I saw at Kam Drive-In in Aiea. It could be close to 20 years now. I’ve been told that this one particular Drive-In is actually still functional but as more movies go to a digital distribution, places like these are becoming more and more extinct. I don’t mean DVD/Bluray/Piracy, I mean digital distribution. If you go to a modern movie theater and look at the projector, there are no more reels of film anymore. It is now digitally delivered to a theater over the internet. Piracy was one reason this is becoming a thing and another is ease of delivery. The last Avengers movie saw a benefit from this, a week before release they filmed the awesome cut at the end of the credits. They had just enough time to put that together and pop it into the movie just before the release date. The problem for the becoming extinct Drive-Ins is that they usually do not have the same backing as some of the other theater companies do so no one is going to buy those projectors for them. It’s a sink or swim kind of environment that I do not wish to see happen but it is. When I took these photos I brought @partyallmyown1 with me and she said she had never been to a Drive-In. She didn’t even know how they worked. It really is sad that such a great monument in our history is going to disappear.
