enter the paper crane

people seem surprised to hear that i consider myself to have poor fine motor skills. this might come as a surprise, particularly if you've of played any fps' with/against me.it turns out that computers are very forgiving, when it comes to such things. i have a sufficient set to be a decent typist, but my handwriting is generally considered atrocious.

tonight, i decided to start doing something about it. folding paper cranes is a fairly well accepted practice for improving motor skills. i was not, by any means, blown away by my first attempt, but i plan to continue until i'm able to fold them with one hand (preferably either), or until my apartment becomes full of cranes...

they say that if you have a wish, then make 1000 paper cranes, your wish will come true.

in the case of fine motor skills, i think they're right.

Heya James, check out my new blog over at http://alphaexperiment.blogspot.com/

Also, sadly Xiph has ogg support working in iTunes but not flac yet. On the bright side Apple is officially supporting Flac in OSX 10.5

Picked up a MOH edition over the weekend, we'll test those motor skills next time you're in town.
