Wild and Ferrell Windows
I had a long session of playing Final Fantasy 12, and I'm maybe half way through. Hard to tell. That aside, I saw the new Will Ferrel Movie, Stranger Than Fiction. I didn't exactly remember the name of the movie as I ordered the ticket, or recognize the title as the movie was playing, or bother to even remember the title after I finished watching. Yet I felt compelled to call some of my friends at midnight, Pacific Time, and tell their voice mailboxes that it was a great movie. That I recognized the many scenes that took part at my alma mater, Univeristy of Illinois at Chicago. For god sakes, I even recognized the crummy mens shower room in the old Phys. Ed. building. One of them, Alli, actually called me back and told me that they even shot in Wicker Park. Then she proceeded to make fun of me forgetting the name of the movie.
Maybe my short term memory is just busted? Too much wasabi while eating sushi perhaps? Have you ever had too much wasabi and felt the fumes just rising up, and culminating at the top of the head. It's a strange feeling, almost painful. Yet, I never pay attention to that while I talk to my co-workers and add random amounts of wasabi to my next bite of sushi. Each bite becomes exciting. Perhaps this one will put too much pressure in my cranium and cause me to pass out? Nope, got lucky.
Today, Sunday, I gave in to the desire of putting windows on my 13-inch Macbook. I downloaded Boot Camp, and acquired, by some means, a copy of Windows. All of this so I can run GOD DAMN Photoshop and Illustrator natively and for free! Yeah you heard me! Here I am publicly saying I was gonna get pirated copies. BUT GUESS WHAT! You can't do anything to me. Boot Camp said that it couldn't move some files around and so creating a separate partition for Windows failed. In a way, I'm glad. My roommate, R.S., said that he'd let me use his computer with my tablet to draw. It's got a bigger screen, so that works for me. All I'll do is get a little bluetooth adapter since my tablet is a wireless bluetooth tablet. No biggie. I can re-use it with the desktop I left back in Chicago.
Plus, I didn't have to defile my Mac with Windows, which would be worse than getting caught with porn.
