Okay! Hooray! I finally figured out how to upload videos and photos from my cellphone to my myspace account. I configured the same for my youtube account, but I'm not sure that's working just yet... (HOT DOG! It took awhile, but that one's up, too -- yippee!)
This isn't a great video (whose first is, right?), but it's filmed at a fun landmark in Austin, Texas. Each year the "Trail of Lights" is set up in Zilker Park, where the annual Austin City Limits Festival takes place. Part of the setup is this giant "Christmas Tree" made up of lights. The tradition is you stand under the lights, look straight up and spin around while you're looking. You get dizzy -- very dizzy and vertigo. So, last night I decide to film this. I spin, realize my camera didn't record when I hit "record," so I hit record again and spin for another 30 seconds. I survive the 30 second ordeal, but shortly after, when I stop moving, my body wants to keep spinning and I slam into a couple, pushing into this girl as I hit the ground with a thud. I apologize profusely. The guy is gracious enough to extend a hand to help me up, asking me if I'm okay. I laugh and tell him to let me lay down here for just a minute. "I so sorry!" I tell them again. It wasn't a slow motion fall, but a wham! bam! slam. So funny.
