so, it turns out that once you have the "filmmaker's itch", it's hard not to scratch! i had so much fun with the first timelapse video of my boring-ass life, i had to make another one - just to see if i could make something equally banal look like it was fun and cool.
last year, my mom sent me a recipe for a tasty soup that she had created (or stolen from martha stewart - i'm not actually sure which is the case). here's the official (not funny) recipe:
wash and chop the leeks and zucchini. peel/skin and finely chop ginger and garlic. heat a skillet with the olive oil. warm the garlic and ginger. throw in the zucchini. cover and brown for two minutes. throw in the leeks. cover and brown for two minutes. dissolve soup stock in the water. when the vegetables have softened and browned slightly, add the stock. allow to come to a boil. transfer to a simmering pot. add water to just cover the vegetables. bring to a slow boil over low heat. allow to simmer for 20 minutes. remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. take half of the mixture and blend in a blender on medium speed. add the remaining vegetables and blend.
this soup is delicious and can be vegan-friendly. also note that it is about as bright a green as you can possibly achieve without adding artificial colouring or kryptonite.
this morning, as i was getting ready for work, i was contemplating what other kinds of timelapse videos i could take of my everyday life that would get more cat-involvement in them. going to sleep and taking a shower were on the top of the list, but i need to think of a way that i can do this without seeming to want to get into amateur porn. you'll probably see the outcome within a couple of weeks if you just stay tuned to this station.
thanks to everyone who has been supportive of my efforts to make my cats youtube stars!!!!

song of the day for making the most boring stuff look like fun: shapes, maor levi (oliver smith remix)
ps. these nutty techno songs are ripped from my running mixes - i don't listen to them because they're brilliant music or anything, but they keep me moving fast when i might rather sit at home and watch video on my PC.
