Instead of doing something productive I came up with this. I wanted a quick/short parade of flavors and feelings. Ugh, I hate to think what I'd come up with if I decided to go long. In order of courses. (Imagine some sexy music in the background; a tango or solidly good jazz. Or Portisehead, whatever ( Read more... )

I was writing something else and this came out. It didn't belong so I cut it but I don't want to kill it yet. So it goes here for now.

I was just wondering why Expressionism has had a few blips in the American creative world but hasn't had the huge impact it did in Europe. But we like our comedies so much that I'm not sure that we just don't ( Read more... )

I hardly ever do updates anymore. And it's funny how the weekend didn't feel like it was this interesting as it happened, probably because this is my "work." But now that I'm home and can process I have a lot of thoughts crashing into each other. Gotta get them down somewhere.

I'm giving myself a pass (because, seriously, it's not like anyone is going to call me on it) and say the stuff I wrote on Saturday (that I'm keeping to myself thankyouverymuch) counted, even though it was part of the other non-posted stuff from Friday.

I wrote these notes yesterday as I walked through the brand-spanking new Wonderland exhibit at LACMA (all of you should go! Go now!!) Then I got home (very, very late at night) to find the Internet was down. It's still down but I'm borrow/stealing the wifi at the theatre during some down time.

Err I suppose I should think ahead so I can have a topic ...or something... when I hit this point, remembering that I promised myself I'd write every day and I don't know what to say that isn't just a boring damn laundry list of crap I did and crap I meant to do ( Read more... )

I posted this on Amanda Palmer's blog and forgot about it for a while. But I reread it and realized I want to hold onto it and this is the best archive I've got. So it's not exactly a blog post because it's actually a very long comment. When I have time (or something) I'll come back and mine for the points I made and do something a little more ( Read more... )

Right. So I've imposed vacation on myself. No trying to work at something strenuous or project-based or whatever for a week. Give or take. and plus or minus some work here and there. And I don't get out of actual work. I still have to clean this sty. Seriously. This place is out of control and I again kind of want to burn it to the ground. ( Read more... )

Once again I'm ignoring my to-do list in order to tell you about my weekend. Because I love you t h i s m u c h. And I hate doing the laundry ( Read more... )

Somewhat pushed out of a state of numbness by art and fakery. But I still don't know which way to go ( Read more... )
