Day Twenty-One:
Monday the 10th of August

Today the banks were closed. And the post office. And state offices. And half of us. There were lots of mixed messages about whether in fact there was work today or not. A few brave souls made their way to the studio to continue their work. Victory day can be distracting though and things moved slower today.

Things were learned today:
It is hot.
Squares are apparently hard to cut out... even if you are cutting them from long strips.
Final Cut occasionally will make you feel like you lost time and effort.
Scanners get to sit in front of fans.
When you are focused on something... like say, take three of the atomic alley, then time just slips away.

Below is the first part of take three. Victory day celebrations will apparently extend one more day than we would have ever liked.
