as the story goes ive been trying to assemble an eye torture of a film for ya'll here (God knows im sick of this footage) Im pretty close to having it done but the bombardment of problems has really taken its toll. i have destroyed 5 cameras (and been robbed of one on New Years), had difficulty getting actors to care or even show up, had problems getting friends with cameras to show up, and now ive finally got a camera my friend let me borrow but he forgot to leave me the cords! So im gonna have to take the little tape to a guy who makes them into CDs so ill be able to get the fooage off my tv screen.
I thought id share with everyone my day to day editing process that usually ends up with me a litle more hopless and a warm hashbrown in the oven.
1. I was dreaming about being with a woman, she stopped "being" (sexing) with me and asked "how am i being a black woman here?" i told her she is black, but not really, and that we were practically the same (you may argue this idea in "reality" but in dreams im pretty sure i manifested her) So she put her clothes on and i woke up.
2. I forgot what im supposed to be doing
3. I set up the camera ontop a pillow on a stool and put it infront of my tv, i put in one of the tapes i need to edit in the vcr and played around real quick with the TVs picture to make it more viewable.
4. I began to edit; recording the footage onto my camera...first problem came up...when you film a TV sometimes you see a huge gap of black rectangle, but you can rid it by pressing pause and waiting for it to hide. its hard to do that cause you can only see the line when looking through the camera, bu tthe camera is far from the screen&VCR. so this was irritating so i decided to come and tell you all.
now im back to work. Ill post more of this journal as problems persist. Hopefully this POS will be out of my hands and sent to the site in a few days

in order to block any jinx or demons, ive decided to risk saying this in hopes it causes a malfunction in the universe...in favor of it not happening...cause i note the evil joke..
wouldnt it be funny if something else got in the way of this?

The other night I had thsiu dream where a bunch of people were hanging off this cliff by ropes and I was trying to save them so I got down on my stomach and krept up to the edge to try to pull them up, but this girl, a pretty hot one too, jumped on me from behind and started cuddling into me, so I said to her:
Hamburger Hill: What are you doing?
and she said:
Girl: Trying to have sex with you.
and I said:
H.H.: Why?
and then nothing happened, she just like stopped silent, turned into a mannequin, couldn't say a reason. i think its a sign, and not a very good one either
