Super dope stop-action video shot around Austin reminds us to seize the day this holiday weekend.

Man, we’ve had a pretty amazing week here at RoA. And while I’ve got 80,000 stories that I need to post, I’m just gonna enjoy this moment. Plus, the rain has my bed, a book and Netflix calling my name. This weekend, however, I’m gonna be out and enjoying the sun.

Check this weather report:

Note that it’s supposed to rain ALL NEXT WEEK!! That means I’m gonna do whatever it takes to take advantage of everything this city has to offer–and then crawl back into bed on Monday to enjoy that rain again.

That’s kinda the theme of “The Day Almost Flew By.” Filmed in stop action, it’s kinda like a dream journey through the city. It reminds us to take advantage of life and seize the day. Plus, the effects are super legit and the story is cute.

How many landmarks can you name?

This long holiday weekend, get out and ENJOY the oasis in which we live. Life is so short, and each moment is fleeting. Be with the ones you love. Disconnect the blackberry/iPhone/twitter/facebook and be in the moment.
