Since changing my life and moving out here, the thought of a deadline rarely occurs to me. Alarm clocks are definitely out of the question. When I woke up with the sunrise this morning, it suddenly hit me that today was the deadline for the Texas Monthly Short Film Contest. To add to the mix...we had cloudy skies and a threat of rain coming in.
Fired up the new Field Lab brain and discovered that the quick time DVD I had made with the sick laptop ran fine on the new machine. Next up - downloaded Acrobat Reader so I could print out the rules and entry forms. Last bit of business was downloading drivers for my printer. Was clouding up pretty good but I took a chance and headed to the post office in Study Butte to send off my entry. Last stop was some ice for the ice box. Heavy rain on the way home at the hill by Luna Vista. Got back at noon just as some drizzle started. Grabbed my mail at the corner and found my new video editing software arrived - Adobe Premiere Elements 8. (something to play with on a rainy day)
Light rain steady from 1 - 2 PM. More coming tonight and tomorrow...but I'm good to go for awhile. 78,92,72, .04", W
