Currit Family: July 2007

Tuesday, July 31, 2007

Meanwhile back at the rocket ranch,

Greetings! I am back from vacation and trying to get back into working mode. It has been hard. When I got back, there was so much work piled up that I can't see any way of ever completing it. You would think this would make me want to work really hard to catch up, but it has had the opposite effect. I will get back in the swing of things soon. For a few days, whenever I got a free minute, I found myself fantasizing about early retirment. But then I realized it would be a very "poor" retirement (literally) so I got back to work.

We had a great time in Washington and loved seeing everyone. I didn't feel like running the river or water skiing or anything. All I wanted to do was sit and talk to everyone and catch up on what they are doing. With everyone spread all over the country (not to mention Thailand and Poland), we just don't get enough time together. I think I counted 40 people there, so it was a good turnout. I just wish you all could have been there.

movie on youtube

Hey one and all. Our movie called " The three Masters" has been posted on youtube! check it out and make sure you give it a five star rating if you have a youtube account... Just a quick preview of what it is, for those who didn't see it at grandma's: me, sam pugh, and our friend Chris made a movie for the iOscars, a campus, and i think UVSC was invited to join as well, contest. We hade to make the movie on a mac using iMovie, and it had to incorporate the number 3 somehow, and it could only be three minutes long. So, of course, we dedicated the movie to the three masters of our generation: Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Steven Segal. 'Nough said.
hopefully this link works...
