i finished my book this morning, and started a new one: the second and third books in the divine cities trilogy, respectively. i am really enjoying those books.

at work today, among other days, we did some color verification. this is where we match digital colors to physical paint swatches. i had never done this before, and it involved a lot of carefully calibrated equipment.

after work i went to the yoga studio where i do work trade. it was unusually busy; i received three phone calls while sitting at the desk, compared to the usual number of zero. but i was very glad to get a yoga session in for the first time in a while. it was challenging but felt great.

later on, at home, i started setting up my equipment for the show on friday, where i'm performing live video as part of my collaboration with andrei, who is doing music. i forgot that one of my fancy video converters had broken, and tried troubleshooting it all over again before finally remembering that i already established that it was broken a couple months ago. (this time i will definitely either label it or throw it away...) luckily i have a cheapo converter (about $10) that actually seems to work better than any of the ones that cost an order of magnitude more. that seems like it should be a metaphor of some kind...
