I'm in a funk and need to get out. I have no problem watching a movie a day, but find it more and more difficult to get my video projects done. Work or scheduling issues seem to keep getting in the way. An artist I know set out on a project to make a drawing a day as a way to deal with these problems. I've decided to use a Flip camera and iMovie to make one short video sketch a day. Some narrative, some not, hopefully some interesting. We'll see what happens when there are no excuses.

10.14.09 -- Baptism
I’ve never been officially baptized. My academic advisor in college, who was a devout Catholic, was quite troubled by this and told me I’d be going to limbo. That didn’t seem that bad to me. Of course, this was also the same professor who didn’t have us read Dante’s Paradise in our literature class, stating none of us would be going there.
A drunken former Seminarian attempted to baptize me in the dorms, but I’m not sure that counts.
A friend of mine just returned from Portugal and gave me a lovely statue of Fátima with the blessed water (go to this link to read more about Fátima: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Lady_of_Fatima). I wonder if it’s possible to baptize yourself.
