That’s how it’s done, son!

Um… I mean, sons.

Wow, there really are a lot of similarities between Myst and Lost. Aside from the fact that they’re both about islands and have 4 letter titles that end in “st”…. There’s a very similar magical setting in both games. Mix between ancient and technological… Science and Mysticism.

Any Lost fans who have never played Myst, I highly recommend you download it for the iPhone/iPad. You really won’t be sorry.

In other news, think I may have overdone it on the juicing on my first day. Cause I’m pretty sure I drank several pounds of liquifed produce today. From beets to spinach to grapes to celery… Honestly, at one point I almost tried to juice a piece of frozen salmon. It’s just too fun.

I mean, there has to be a name for what happened to me today (besides batshit crazy). I’m sure others have experienced it. The thrill of putting in that first fruit or veggie. Hearing it hit those blades… getting liquified. There’s just something so awesome about reducing a piece of celery to a beverage. I can’t imagine anything more awesome. Except perhaps a machine that could vaporize that produce.

Actually, I guess I do own one of those… and it’s not really that awesome. :S

So yeah, liquifying produce… totally addictive… totally awesome… but dangerously filling.

Not a lot to report today. Bought my juicer. Juiced some peaches. Juiced some spinach. Tomorrow I’m gonna juice some beets and some beet greens…

Had an awesome evening at Sean Gunn’s for a little din din and chit chat. I’m not sure if any of you know this, but Sean is an amazing chef. Probably the best self taught chef I know. I’m on an elimination diet to try to understand my skin issues better and the dude totally whipped up an amazing meal out of pretty much beets, peahces, spinach and sea salt.

So yeah, nice end to the weekend.

Anyway, new subject… I was flipping through old posts as well as random design and illustration stuff I’ve made over the years and I stumbled across something from 2009 that I just realized I never posted here. I only posted it on Tumblr. At least I can’t seem to find it in my posts.

Oh well, if I did post it here, then I’m posting it again.

It’s a flowchart I designed for David Bowie’s A Space Oddity.

Since my post yesterday, I’ve gotten way further ahead in Myst. Actually, I have to admit, I feel a little stupid for the comment about not being able to get the elevator to work in the library. I tried to get that thing to work for months the last time I played it. I’m not sure how or why it finally dawned on me today to close the door to the elevator before pressing the button, but… voila.

Playing a little late night iPhone Myst in bed. Which I love. But I didn’t play this game when it came out. I know it’s a favorite of many… but this is my first time through.
