This is the story of most of us here on Bricks in Motion.
Amen! Preach it! 
I can get a lot done in a short time period, (See my last film...Or THAC) so motivation is probably a bigger issue than time. That's not to say I haven't been working on Lego-associated stuff, but it's not been brickfilming stuff. So thanks for the boost in morale. It'll probably last all of two minutes, but chances are in those two minutes than I've done all day.
As to the film, the typing looks good, but the whole "Grabbing the phone" movement is a bit too quick and jerky.
There's a tiny bit of light-flicker once or twice, and I would have ended it with "Mod" saying "...And I'm dead." But that's just me. It's a nice little piece, short and sweet.....But sadly true.
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I can get a lot done in a short period too; it's a matter of getting started. I think the reason why the grabbing the phone animation was kinda jerky was because the right arm on my sig-fig is really loose, so it was hard to animate this. And I'm still relatively new at animating with the Canon T2i, so I'm trying to fix the light flicker problem.
MY problem is time.
My issue is both time and motivation (mostly motivation, though 
)
I have no problem with motivation, just time. Between work, school, and my own chores, I don't have to much time to do it. But then again... if I was truly motivated I would do it at night when I should be sleeping, so maybe I am not truly motivated enough. 
Another issue is that my motivation comes at the wrong times. I'll want to film when I am at my job, but when I actually have the time, I don't feel like it anymore
Haha, yes, this is pretty accurate.
A problem for me is time, though--I haven't been able to do much since I'm extremely busy. Though a lack of motivation is hardly helpful, either...
For me Ideas have just started appearing..... right before we go on a move/trip that will take most of the summer.
