Papa Chow dug up an old recording of a baby .tiff trying to sing the ABC's. Given that my brother is not in the picture, this must have been recorded sometime between 1986 and 1987. I think I sound pretty adorable.com, but it's clear I have some work ahead of me on my alphabet reciting skills:

sludged

Happy holidays everyone! Since I took most of my vacation days off a few weeks ago while visiting New York, I don't have the luxury of spending the entire holiday season lucidly lounging about in my Snuggie (ha ha, no I don't actually own a Snuggie. I just wear my bathrobe backwards). Fortunately, the office will be nice and quiet, so I'll have plenty of time to concentrate and lock down on my work before the new year starts.

release your fears

In other news, I've been doing my best these last few months in making sure I'm being creative at least a few times a week. This means lots of little drawings to share! I try to post what I've got once a week over at my TypePad blog, but whatever I churn out always gets posted at my Flickr. Hope you enjoy, and let me know if you have any drawing requests (I'm on the look out for some fresh material, what with these new copic pens I got for Christmas!).

monkey towel

What does a good kid get for a late birthday present? An awesome hooded space monkey towel, gifted by someone who knows me way to well.

She's pretty damned cute, if I don't say so myself.

Should I get it?

I've been a dinky camera enthusiast for a solid eight years, and while I've been fine with making the very best of crappy macro modes and minuscule mega pixels, I think it's about time for an upgrade. Thus, I've decided to pull together some of my savings and purchase one of those fancy photo-taking devices, like this alleged Nikon D40 everyone's been talking about. No really, everyone's been talking about it. So I'll probably get one of those... unless somebody wants to convince me otherwise.

What do you say, neighbors? Hurray! I need to purchase one before my giant trip to NYC!

Show us a picture of a black cat.
Sure thing. Here's a poladroid of me and my old cat Cloe, when she was paying my apartment a visit:

O.O

Old clip is old, but David Lynch never sounded so f***ing fresh, and he's f***ing right too.

12.seconds.(a.second.review)

nobody@vox.com(.tiff) — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 18:09:22 -0700

Maybe I'm stretching my blog material, but since I *know* that its tricky to redirect all y'all to the TypePad version of .tiff (where I'm currently blogging at a much higher frequency than here), I'm forced to do the occasional pseudo-cross-post as a reminder that it still exists, and is alive and kicking. Plus, everyone loves comments on their stuff, and because I'm a web-egomaniac (<- See! That post is on my TypePad blog too!), I love them a lot. So when you drop by for a visit, comment on a post, and I promise that any forthcoming kittens that might magically appear because of my happy ego will be named after you. A kitten promise is forever.

Back to the topic at hand. As I detailed in my TypePad post, friend and game journalist Robin Yang gave me an invite to the vlogging world's twitter, 12.seconds, last week. While the majority of members have been giving 12 second updates on what's going on in their day, I've approached the site trying to figure out what random stuff I can show in a limited time frame. Since my first video, The Indiana Jones Special Edition Spoon Light Show Extravaganza, I've lightly experimented with other scenarios, such as the following instance where I make you feel awkward about watching me drink coffee:

That was fun, right? Now watch as I show off 5 different toys from my office desk (3/5 are actually gifts from Papi Chulo and Secret Agent Scotch's various trips):

AMAZING. While 12 seconds is a super tight window to work with, it kind of takes the stress out of finding super compelling material for a Vlog post, most of which typically run on for longer than I have to patience to watch someone talk into a webcam. Plus, it gives me creative energy to do mini videos like this, which I probably would have never thought of if it weren't for the limitations. Either way, maybe the site is a passing fancy and yet another way to waste your time on the Internet, but I'm having fun with it so far!
