unmotivated & sleepy
Saturday, December 18 1999
I spent most of my day trying to resolve the issue of why Ulead Visual Studio crashes every time I attempt to digitally capture from my stopped video camera. After hours of fruitless research I never did find a solution; indeed, I might have to depend on my analogue video board as I did in the days of Big Fun. By the way, let me just say that I am terribly dissappointed with the user interface of Ulead Visual Studio. In a sorry attempt to make the Studio resemble an actual real-world device, Ulead saw fit to force the workboard to take over the entire screen of my computer, covering vast tracts with vacant brown textures. Most of the 3D-style button controls are complete mysteries without their pop-up help windows. Ulead Visual Studio definitely deserves a place in the user interface hall of shame. Recently I keep finding myself helplessly on the bleeding edge of technology. It's part of God's way of telling me I'm making too much money.
Kim tried to interest me in doing something other than hanging out with my computer all day, of course, but I was too weary and frustrated to find the motivation she solicitied. But I couldn't do much more than sleep in any case. After awhile I simply lay down on the computer room futon, the place where Matt Rogers will soon be sleeping, and fell gently asleep. Meanwhile Kim was out with Lisa and Jenna the German Girl.
