but I ended up going in to work today anyway.

I'd agreed without thinking more than "yeah, extra cash would be nice" and forgot what had been looming.

Annoying project. I mean, the spot's going to look cool even if it's a little froufrou. But the details of making it happen are tedious and I agreed to come in and track which I haven't done much of recently and am starting to not miss at all.

So I went in, tracked, found out it wasn't *nearly* as annoying as I'd anticipated... and briefly wandered off into MEL scripting territory to make a button that places arbitrary geometry at the location and orientation of any locators or mesh vertices that you have selected as well as constraining the new geo to the locators in case they were animated. I may change it to orient based on the vertex normal. That might be more handy. It was irrelevant for this purpose though.

That's more interesting and is more helpful for everyone else.

Besides that, I've a thought in my head: My WordPress blog, while inherently "personal" is more along the professional side. Same with my facebook profile... A sizable chunk of my facebook friends are people I know professionally: so glittery graphic "thanks for the add!" and stupid pictures get deleted from my wall. casual banter is fine: but things I wouldn't do or say at work don't happen there either. I've started deleting comments that wouldn't be appropriate to yell out at me at work. If you leave a comment that gets deleted: I'm not mad at you, I'm just not going to embarrass myself on anyone else's behalf.

Myspace is a filthy pit anyway, so I'm not policing it yet. Professional contacts on there are incidental, but I'm probably going to clean that mess up soon as well.
