I came back to Photoshop class today after it went ok yesterday afternoon (I learned a few things they glazed over in the beginner class), and today is looking up as well. The guy brought a book he had at home for me to work from! Woohoo. The book is for an older version of Photoshop and the sample images aren’t around anymore, so I’m using Google to find images similar to those the exercises in the book show.
Ooh — in searching for a similar image, I found the webpage for the book! (The guy told me it didn’t exist anymore.) It has all the original sample images! Rock on!
The guy teaching this class has a cool job. He’s my age, studied fine arts in college, and now works for Pat Rawlings doing 3D animation. I want his job!
I went for a run last night, and it was quite possibly the worst run of my entire life. My legs were heavy, they were sore, they burned. It was not pretty, but I forced myself though three miles (had hoped for six) in a run/walk combination to “get the lead out” from Sunday’s big 25K. I’ll try again tonight, if the rain lets up. This morning it was pouring and the water level in the bayou was high. Rain, rain, rain. It’s been overcast since Saturday and is basically supposed to thunderstorm on and off till next Tuesday.
My poor jammed finger is still all puffy. I’m ready to be able to make a fist again, darn it.
Your friend Mr. Donovan was on ESPN2 tonight during the US v Jamaica world cup qualifying.
I know! I was totally engrossed.
