My Curse

Why the sad blog title? Let me tell you. In the last two days I have been working in InDesign for a total of 18 hours. I know you might not think that is a lot, but I spend time in bed, not sleeping, but sitting there wanting to. Yesterday I spent the majority of my day working on projects for two classes which consisted of almost 8 hours worth. Today has been no different. I rose early due to the neighbor's dogs barking and even though my work has been minimal, InDesign is still open and I am fighting with my designs.

Last night when I got back from class I spent the remainder of my night chatting away on AIM and picking away at my designs like tar in my teeth. No, I don't smoke. It is just a good analogy. So my hind-quarters are starting to hurt because I haven't left my chair except for that eating thing and using the facilities. I think if I tried to get up, I would find that my body has melded with my computer chair. The title of this post comes from a band called Killswitch Engage and the song is called "My Curse" off of their 2007 album, As Daylight Dies. It is stuck in my head because it is on Guitar Hero III. Speaking of GH.

Last night I couldn't sleep and then I got up this morning, and while my computer was warming up I played more GH III. Haha, that makes it sound like a drug. I got through the second to last set on hard and then decided to come back to my computer and begin design work. I avoided getting online because the internet has been acting up all day. As it is right now, I am saving after every paragraph just in case I go to publish and the wireless dies again. Well as you can see above, I have decided to use my own images more now that I am designing layouts. I should be getting better with my point-and-shoot camera so I can become better in my field overall. Oh well. That is it for now. Onto more InDesign work. Adobe, if you are out there, I need a job.(Wink)
