Big Bad Kyle

Big Bad Kyle from Jenna Tollerson on Vimeo.

I found this going through files from an old computer. It was the only video I took on my very first $100 digital camera, in about 2000, I think. There was no sound on this camera, and when I got home I realized that not only was the quality awful, but I had made the now-classic mistake of taking it with a portrait orientation, and didn't have the know-how to fix it.

This is Kyle, my friend Sam's little brother, who at the time was practically my little brother too, after a middle school play in which he played the Big Bad Wolf, doing his evil bow for me not once, but twice, while I struggle with some Blair-Witch-style camera work.

This video reminded me of how much time has gone by, because I now have a much steadier hand, and Kyle is now a father. That, and I can't remember exactly which story this Big Bad Wolf is from.

All Hallow's Eve

A very kind soul loaned me her fake id, and I managed to get into DT's.

(Don't worry, I'm stone sober.)

Why is it that all the 21+ places in town seem to be dives?

Veblen was awesome. I know I always say that, but that's because they are always awesome.

And they played a new song! It doesn't have a title yet, but it's awesome.

I really had a great time.

Happy, happy Halloween everybody!

You'd Stay Awake For This

Duct tape fixes all.

I should use it to tie up my Marine Envirment teacher and force him to give me an "A".

But I won't.

The week in brief:

I made a 91 on my History of Rock test.

Tinkers Punishment has been in my CD player all week, because damn, they're awesome. Also, the timbre seems to fit well with the weather lately.

I have one lengthy science assignment and two classes standing between me and fall break, and the two Veblen shows in Athens this week.

The super-special Miss Maggie made me these badass wings to wear for Halloween, which she then helped me to glitter-fy, as well as a cute wreath of flowers to wear on my head. (The picture does not do these wings justice. They really are so badass.)

...zzzZZZzzz...

but this time
i hope you're right
and i'm right here by your side
and in spite of every time
we'll be alright
we'll be just fine

This is serious business

Okay, Halloween is coming up, (and it's even over my fall break, natch) and I need input for a costume. It must be:

  • attractive
  • cheap
  • easy to obtain and put together
  • allow me to wear blue jeans
  • subdued
  • simple
  • nothing involving blood or gore
  • maybe incorporating glitter

I need detailed ideas on what to buy, colors, etc. Donated materials will be gladly accepted.

And for anyone who thinks that Halloween is just for trick-or-treating little kids, I challenge you to spend your Halloween in downtown Athens.

And anyone who thinks I could get away with just wearing lots of glitter, let me know. Cause that sure would be easy.

PHP is tiring.
