When I said eat shit I wasn't being literal...
Oh what a mess things would be if she knew the whole truth.
So I had planned on seeing The Fantastic Mr. Fox this weekend, but apparently it didn't come out in Memphis. I have been waiting a really long time for this film to come out, and now that it's out I can't see it. Ugh. Every year I say I'm going to have a Wes Anderson party and I never do. Maybe this year will be different. I'm such a sucker for themes. Maybe that's why Halloween has always been my favorite holiday. When I was a kid my parents wouldn't buy me costumes from the store because they thought of Halloween as an opportunity to show off how creative a person can be. It was so fun making costumes with my family. My mom was practically wonderwoman back in those days. She was really involved in the community, and she raised thousands of dollars for the local Girl Scout troops by starting a haunted hayride that involved over 200 volunteers. It was huge, and super fun. It's hard to believe that she pulled it off. I wish Memphis was more community oriented. I've been thinking a lot lately about getting involved in some way, I just don't know where to start. I want to make this city a better and safer place to live. I'm so inspired by my mother. She believed in herself and her cause, and she changed our town. As cheesy and cliché as it is, I really do want to make a difference.
I started making art again, and it feels really amazing. The really baffling part is that I actually like it. That almost never happens.
