08 April 2007

I need someone to give me an arbitrary deadline around April 25 for production of my Kyoto sakura DVD. I'm editing together 4 years worth of video and photos, and as a former reporter I work better if someone gives me an immutable production deadline. If you harrass me about progress updates between now and then I'll post videos.
2 PM ET April 24th.

Yes, April 24th at 2 p.m.

Hmm... that would convert to 3AM on the 25th in Kyoto... why don't we make it a little earlier, or are you the type who is your most productive between Midnight and 3?

Thanks very much, boss. I'll send you a DVD when it's done.

Actually, last week I did finish a wedding DVD at 3 a.m. I've been working at night becaue my 3-year-old son won't let me sit uninterrupted at the computer in the daytime. BUT, he enters kindergarten this Thursday, so I'll a have a few hours of unmolested office time during the day from now on. I'll stick with the original deadline, however, since it is IMMUTABLE!

Off-topic: Wendell, do they still have those Thursday afternoon summer barbecues where they shut down the downtown streets of SLO-town?

This is begging for abuse, and we're just the ones to give it.
MetaDom is in session.

PK, it's officially a Farmer's Market, but the BBQers and live music and guy-in-a-bear-suit tend to steal the show. But it's not just summer; being in an area mostly lacking seasons, it's every Thursday except when it rains; and one Thursday last January, they imported 15 or 16 tons of snow for kids to play in. It's a great walking experience, which makes me wish every Thursday that I didn't have trouble walking...

Thanks to all for the big push, and thanks for that link, Wendell. I have good memories of that event when I stayed in San Luis (actually a campground by a lake in Los Osos) for the summer one year.

You know, is there some sort of service for this? For people who have specific goals and definite steps which must be taken to get there, but where the only consequence of not doing things is not meeting a personal goal, so they just can't be bothered to do it? Cause I need this service. Bad.
