My Weekend

Its kinda nice getting back to normal weekends again after having so many that were either spent working the whole time or at least having it on my mind… I did spend some time workin – but just on things I wanted to be doin – not cuz I had to… Whew.. 🙂

Friday night was low key which is my favorite way to spend a friday night.. Kevin’s still recovering from his alergy issues so he was feelin kinda punk.. So we hid inside, rented movies (which I still haven’t returned – DAMN) and ordered pizza… Watched Bruce Almighty.. Skip it.. Bad… Lame.. Super Lame..

Saturday was pretty mellow too. Got up and cleaned the house (needed it after all the travel of late). Then went to brunch with k and some shopping.. got some new shoes, some shirts, and a swim suit ( Matt and I have started swimming lately – i’m LOVING it – but my workout suit was kinda tired ). After shopping Matt and I went swimming – great workout but EXHAUSTING! 🙂

Saturday night was a blast.. Kevin’s friend Jason came with us over to Matt and Brian’s for dinner.. After that Matt, Jason, Kevin and I went out dancing.. Went to some new club called Mighty (or something like that) over south of market (near Gold’s gym for the locals out there).. The space was totally cool – art on the walls, chill space – and the crowd was pretty good.. little small but cute crowd and good music.. We stayed until about 3am which was just about right for me (given I had to be up at 8:30 for mother’s day)… Good times! 🙂

And today I spent with my Mother.. Went down to Los Gatos and went out to brunch with her and my step dad.. was very nice and a beautiful day.. After brunch we walked around San Jose in the sunshine…

Overall a great weekend! 🙂

Thursday Giggles…

A funny to start off your day:

Average IQ by state and how they voted in 2000: notice a pattern here?

Update: Just to be clear – this is a joke

Oh yea… And Vacation

Oh yea.. And after NAB? I FINALLY took a week off of work. First few days I spent at home while Kevin visited his family in North Carolina (I went back with him for christmas but I kinda needed some alone time so he went without me) and then we both met in NYC on Tuesday to spend some time…

Our friends Clayton and Christopher were gracious hosts as usual and we got to see Katy, Scott, and Ellis and meet this guy (kevin and bob knew each other from years ago and they discovered there was a blog connection while talking over a cigarette). Also saw this guy as we were meeting Katy for dinner at Cafeteria though didn’t get to actually meet.. Unfortunately we didn’t get time to hook up with a couple other friends while we were there.. Guess there is always next time… Still would love to meet these guys but I missed ’em last time.

Star sightings included Boy George, Mo Rocca, Richie Rich, and Amanda Lepore… 😉

I’ll post more info and a few pictures later but I figured I’d share quickly.. While its on my mind..

In case you’ve wondered

In the off chance that anyone has wondered why I’ve been distant (and grumpy on occasion) I can fnally share. At NAB 2 weeks ago we announced the products I’ve been working madly on for the past God-knows-how-long. We announced a number of cool updates to Apple’s Pro application suite, the ones nearest and dearest to my heart being,Final Cut Pro HD,LiveType 1.2, and Cinema Tools 2.2 (being that I do engineering on FCP and i manage portions of the development on LiveType and Cinema tools.

In addition we announced a brand new Application called Motion which I (and a few guys on my team) helped out on. This app is a really cool motion graphics solution for doing various forms of video animations and effects. Its definitely well worth checking out…
