Only a matter of time before I change things up here. 7 months is a long time for an Alex blog, but I tire of this one. It has become too muddled. Too pedestrian. I don’t know what exactly that means, but it sounds like a term that could evoke some kind of response.
Also the [...]
Hello! Remember a year ago when I went to Portland and PA’d on that film set? Well, this is what came of it!
If you watch, enjoy! If you don’t, you’re missing out on some hooker puns.
Yes, it is true. We went to Glow in Santa Monica, and there were so many colors there! Lots and lots. Here are the highlights from my trigger-happy trip to the pier.

Installing PCI cards on the new resTV behemoth at work, the live-editing station.
Father worked on cars with his bare hands, I work on this. Anyone else feeling all warm inside?
For those of you who think I waste my time at resTV just answering e-mails and reading books, you’re way off.
I also (as of today) started wasting time on Craigslist.
Per the norm, I found myself once again browsing through sections related to editing, writing, and filming. My process is to open any ads that look [...]
A couple months ago Camille and I partook in some shenanigans. I had some extra dinosaurs and didn’t want to keep taking them with me everywhere, so we decided to donate them to the world.
For each dinosaur we created a card, a story about who s/he was and what kind of situation they were in. [...]

That’s exactly what you’re like. DUPED.
Here are some photos from the rest [...]
I still remember the day, early May. How could I forget?
How could anyone forget?
It was just a group of great friends trying to take a short-cut… I was just testing out Steak-Ums, my new camera. Then it happened.
It was all I could do just to keep filming, just to keep seeing… I don’t know what [...]

If you haven’t tried this before, it’s fun and unsafe! Get up to cruising speed, stick your hand out the window and you can keep a penny balanced on it. Naturally, I was the only one in the car when I took this picture, so [...]
Found out this morning that I didn’t get into the film school, but whatevs, right?
I mean, it would’ve been cool to be the first person in my family to go to (art) college, but whatevs, right?
Whatevs.
I just talked to friend and filmmaker Kelly Li, and unbelievably he also didn’t get in. We worked at resTV [...]
