Anyway. I've been gobbled by the hole that is the beginning of school for the past three weeks, and for that, dear bloggypoos, I apologize, not to say that it will get better, because it won't—three jobs, three 300+ level classes, and two clubs? Bet your boo we could be heading toward lean times.
But I want this blog to work. I know!
die vier Zielpunkte Fettchens
otherwise known as Fettchen's four goals!
- Post at least once a week
- Eventually work toward posting three times a week
- Acquire before study-abroad video blogging technologies
- Get a cat to love and snuggle with
Thanks for the understanding lovelies. Until then, das Bett.

Keep it up, because I enjoy reading. We'll pester each other to keep up with our respective blogs, eh?
I need to post more frequently, myself. I also need to get off my tail and get drawing again. I've got ideas languishing in my head.
Goal Nr. 4 is an admirable. I don't think a home is really complete without a cat to lovingly ignore you until it's mealtime.
Anyway, I've almost commented at least three other times, but I need to say that I'm here and I'm listening to the things you say (reading, technically). It's just that the things I had to say seemed so ... topical.
As far as V-blogging goes, you might check out something like the Flip for video recording. It's small, light, and plugs right into the computer with a fold-out USB port. Decent video quality (better than you-tube) and less of a processor/computer resource drain on a G4 than live recording from DV camcorder, and easier to make work than a hacked USB webcam (the hacking is the simple addition of a file to the Quicktime stack, but it doesn't seem to work right with my USB webcam and 10.5 Leopard).
OSX doesn't support USB webcams except for the built-in iSights (apart from the iMage: http://www.ecamm.com/mac/imagewebcam/), and they don't make the external FireWire cams anymore, either — so used ones are quite expensive). Then again, if you already have a DV camcorder, OSX should be able to recognise it automatic-like and use it for a webcam source. The only problem is setting it up on the desk. I'm tempted to make a little attachment to sit my DV camcorder on top of my desktop displays.
