It’s a pretty quiet Tuesday evening. My usual Tuesday practice/jam was canceled so I’ll probably fire up Live and plug in some controllers and futz around on my own a little later. I’m forcing myself not to do anything like work for the evening, as I need a little down time.
I snagged a new iPhone 3G over the weekend, and it is working about as well as expected. GPS is pretty neat, I’m loving the App Store (though I had that on my “old” iPhone) and the faster connection is aces as well. I recently grabbed iTouchMidi so I’ll be poking around with tying that in with Live.
I’m trying to figure out what to do with my account over at 12seconds.tv. Any ideas? Maybe only post in haiku? That will fit in 12 seconds. Other than that I have no idea but keeping a video blog to 12 seconds seems easier to handle than a full-on video production. Regardless, I’ll need topics. Maybe I can tweet some requests for topics and use it that way.
I’ve been reading Burning Blog and admiring the pictures of the setup of Black Rock City, and wishing I was going out there in a couple of weeks. Alas it was not meant to be this year with the new job and not having vacation or money saved enough to make a go of it. Next year is 99% (barring some crazy circumstance which is certain to happen between now and then like every year prior) sure that I will be there. I have a job that pays me enough that I can save, and provides enough vacation that I can spare a week to visit the desert. With three weeks of vacation, I should have enough for Gaian Mind Summer Festival, Burning Man and still have some left over to spread around for random other travel and such.
Here’s hoping. Planning will start for that soon, probably after the holidays.
Ok, time to watch some BSG.

I had been planning not to watch the Olympics, in silent protest. This story makes me want to watch now.
For seven years, China has dreamed of orchestrating every detail, athletic and political, of its glorious Opening Ceremonies to the Olympics. Now, one lean 1,500-meter runner from the United States, chosen by his teammates in an act of open defiance, may steal the show. Lopez Lomong, one of the Sudanese “Lost Boys” and a member of the anti-genocide group Team Darfur, has been chosen by his 595 U.S. Olympic teammates to carry our flag on Friday. What, we couldn’t find a Tibetan monk on the team?

Seriously, every time?
I last put my iPhone on the dock about 8 hours ago, when I went to sleep.
They really need to have a setting or something to do this less often for the applications. Nothing changed on my iPhone applications over night. Not a single thing. Can’t they implement a check for that before beginning the back up process?
Oooooooh! Now we’re moving!
