April 16, 2003

It's been a long time...

since I've blogged....things have been so crazy....I've been so busy being in Jasper,
TX. working on the Columbia Shuttle Recovery. It's a pretty cool experience....I'm having a blast...and
meeting some of the greatest ppl out here....I'm sure going to miss them when I leave, but I have a place
to stay in San Antonio and Dallas if I should ever visit...on the flipside, I miss all my friends at
home...I've been cut off from the world since I've been down here...my cell phone doesn't work and the
cell phone I have is very finicky...sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't...the woods/scenery are
beautiful down here...very natural...I also caught the East Texas Crud as they call it...just allergies
from the pine pollen...it was pretty cool at first when I started losing my voice, but it got old...and
I'm finally getting it back...I think I sound pretty cool right now...my PM told me I've got the Demi
Moore voice right now...a little raspy....kinda cool....

Oh...and this bed and breakfast that I'm staying at...definitely the greatest place in the world...if
anyone goes to Jasper, they must stay there...its call the Belle-Jim...the two nicest ppl own it...they
take such good care of me...they serve me breakfast and save me dinner every night....sometimes they even
pack my lunch for work....and they do my laundry...how nuts is that? they make me feel as if I'm coming
home every night...and thats nice...lots of good memories...watching lots of basketball and hockey since
I've been down here...tried to get tix to either a basketball or baseball game since I'm here, but no such
luck for me...maybe I can catch a playoff game in San Antonio or Dallas this weekend if they're home!!

I also had my first taste of editing all by myself down here....I have to say that it was pretty darn
cool...I had a good time and I had to figure out some quirks on my own...I kinda like this editing bit...I
was quite surprised...and the OSC was really impressed and liked what I did...it was fun playing with the
transitions... that was my favorite...I know...I'm a dork!!

Anyways, I miss everyone!! Can't wait to see all of you when I get home...sucks that I missed a lot of the
Ambrosio/Agustin wedding planning stuff!! :( Oh and Porta...I'll always consider you a MI person!! See you
guys soon!! Miss you guys...Love you guys!! *Muah*!!
