Other Jobs
People think I have such an amazing job -- Visual Effects Producer. Yes yes, I work in the movies and it is so glamorous...*
However, I was emailing a friend who is a scientist and academic in Minnesota and he said he had to go to Colorado for 36 hours. I asked why 36 and he responded with this fabulous sentence:
I need to take a few lizard tail tips for DNA analysis, all I need is 36 hours, good hiking boots, a noose, and decent weather.
For some reason it made me think of this quote from The Blues Brothers:
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
Hit it!
*I'm grateful for my FX Career, really I am. It bought me a house. But now I'm moving into more creative pursuits.
