heheh winter hibernation indeed for me too - with school and work - can't barely get to my machines ;)
Anytime this week is good - I took 2 weeks of to get back into my project and schooling. I've been working on few projects lately, most of them had been put on hold for school but hopefully I can take some time this week to finish my audio mixer and some other music/animation projects! So Thursday is good for me - anytime also work for me - I am also on the Pacific time, if we are to do it later to accomodate tyler I am good with that too!
