Hey yous.

I really don’t like being seen as a flake. And I’ve definitely flaked the past few days on the video thing.

I actually had no choice in the matter. I was ordered to stay off the computer all weekend last Thursday afternoon to limit the stimulation to my already overly-stimulated brain.

Why? One word: Vertigo.

Dizzy, spinny, nauseating vertigo.

I was a good patient and laid off the computer (not so much the iPhone), and I looked like death warmed over so video wasn’t going to be a pleasant experience for anyone involved.

Dealing with intermittent chronic stuff can really put a damper on life (understatement of the year), but we do what we can, take care of our bodies the best way we know how, and pick up the pieces when we’re vaguely human again.

So, that said, my hubbie was so compassionate and gentle (yet a hardass when it came to keeping me off the computer) he bought me a Kodak Zi8 (affiliate link), the camera I’ve been lusting after for a month or so.

And that means HD video baby! Whee!

Keep an eye out this week for some HD-deliciousness. Oh, and if you have anything you want me to cover, in my last 5 videos, @ me on twitter.

Yeah. Video.

So here’s my very first video blog. vlog. Dude, that word just stinks.

Anywho, I’m riffing off of several others who have been exposing themselves and getting real with video.

No point actually, but I explain why I’m doing video and why I think it’s important. Eloquence be damned.
