I used this photos as my Holiday Card this year. Moo printed amazing cards for me and I recommend their services. I finally updated to a Flickr Pro account and as a free gift I get 10 Moo cards. Can’t wait.

This year Tom & I are will be spending the holidays with friends and family in California. I hope you have a great holiday season.

I’m so thrilled to announced that my new MacPro has arrived and is up and running.  Although it’ll take some time to really get to know one another, I believe we will have a very good partnership.  I’ve named the new computer “Ms. Apple”, as my previous computers were “Mr. Apple” & “Mr. Apps”.

I believe “Ms. Apple” will help me avoid days like today where rendering a 3-minute motion graphic intensive video takes 25 mins.  One mistake could cost another 25 minutes of rendering…and another.  In my rush today I made a few mistakes that had to be corrected.

I believe “Ms. Apple” will get me on track and help me multi-task.

I believe “Ms. Apple” will enjoy its new home.

I believe all this because I spent a lot of money, and it has to work.

I believe I am a slave to technology.
