Time kills ambition. There I’ve said it. What I mean by that is a few months ago I was all hopping around getting excited about making a few videos, something I haven’t done for years, over a decade in fact. Then a sh*t storm of PC trouble came my way. I filmed my first single hander as I call them, no sexual references hidden away in that title I assure you. I then went to edit it on my laptop and quickly found that my expensive folding computer that I only purchased a few years ago, is in fact bobbins (olde world English for w*nk.)
So a few weeks went by and I re-acquired my old editing PC tower station thingy I had given away to my Father-in-law, which he never used, some months back. I found that the editing software I used to use doesn’t support HD and so I had to find a new one. I updated my editing software to be told my graphics card in this PC was also bobbins. I kind of knew that this would be the case, but had my fingers crossed. Not tightly enough it seems.
I have purchased the only PCI HD graphics card I can find on the interweb and tonight I am hopefully going to install it. No doubt I will probably find out that it is still not good enough and my whole video making comeback will by then be kaput.
Time kills ambition? Well, yes it has taken me so long to get to this stage that I kind of can’t be bothered. However, I know that if it does work then I will regain the enthusiasm that has waned over the last month or so...
... and you lot have probably given up waiting to see my ugly mug anyway.
