Yesterday's work consisted of painting flowers and leaves, videotaping Michael Greyeyes and Santee Smith, and assembling a chandelier. I don't care how pretty chandeliers are to some people, but this cements it; it's the first and last time, baby. Michael asked me if I could run sound, and I had to answer that I didn't know how, but the better answer shoul

Spending so much time on the computer! Have you ever played "I love you more than?" with the boys? Scene 1 The girls and I try to outdo each other by saying "I love you more than... chocolate cake." which is followed by some ohs and ahs. And then it continues. "I love you more than rainbows."

Girls don't fight. They fight differently from boys. Girls fight with their words, not with their fists, etc., etc., etc... Yes, girls can be catty. Backstabbing, gossipy vicious bitches, all of us. But for the most part, it's common knowledge that girls react differently than boys. Why throw a punch when sullying a pristine reputation would work j

At least you're honest about how you feel... I liked what you wrote, and of course, object strongly to much of it, but I'm on the wrong side of the line, so to speak. What sins? excellent question indeed.

Another day of hardly working... I spent the tail-end of the morning using iMovie to create a DVD of recent peformances, and then it was off to the Theatre to prep the space. First the ugly work, sweeping, washing floors, cleaning dressing rooms. However, all chores after that, weren't chores at all, but excellent learning and laughing oppo

'Golden Years' is one of my favourite Bowie songs and rather relevant to your paragraph I love Bowie, and this song kicks. I was listening to it earlier this week and I can't get it out of my head, but I'm not complaining. Sure beats children's music.

JG Ballard is great. He wrote Empire of the Sun, which Steven Speilberg made starring Christian Bale, John Malkovitch and Joey Pants! He also wrote Crash, and dozens upon dozens of other books, many of the great 70's sci-fi genre. Check him out when you bring back your library book!

Wow. I've seen other sites that show before and after shots of models, but this was interesting in how they show the process step-by-step. And the computer work! Part of me would like to see how they could 'improve' my own photo, but then I also see the point. It's hard to say that no improvement is necessary, though!

I know I haven't been around much lately but at least I respond to those who leave me comments. I'm horrible for acknowledging a response, but I do like recieving them. Point taken, and noted. Will resolve to make ammends.

Link AC/DC's Who Made Who is one of the first albums that I could take listening to every song. I had it on vinyl and casette and later, cd. I was raised on easy listening music- the guitar, drums and voice blew every Barry Manilow, Chuck Mangione, and Barbara Streisand song away.

Chuck me in the shallow water Before I get too deep... Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians I don't know what I am these days. All that past stress about working shifts, arranging childcare, and never getting regular days off is out the window, replaced by an exceptional amount of free time and no real responsibilities. Until January, I am sim

One of my favorite books is a JG Ballard novel entitled High-Rise because the story is good, the cover style appeals to me, and because it is just the right size. I got it at a second-hand bookstore, and it has that slightly musty paperback smell. It was owned by a Lillia

She's cute, cute, cute. Kole's going birthday crazy now that school's back in session. Invitations that she has recieved from friends encourage her to go on and on about her own birthday.... which isn't until December! Happy (Belated) Birthday, Amanda!

It all goes downhill, when it becomes difficult to think up a decent title... A rather slow start to the day... I dropped Kole off at school, and watched her walk away. I didn't want her to leave today, though I know how important school is for her. No, instead I wanted to call her back, ke

Chapter Seven is the hardest to write, the start of the ending of a work in progress. Reread to see the plot's holes and flaws, go back to begin again. It's always Chapter Seven that's never written, I develop writer's block at about this time. Never wanting to admit it's almost over, never wanting to say goodbye. You were my Chapter Seven at one poi

Rhymes With Orange... The colors almost knocked me over this morning. Reds, yellows and oh! the oranges. It was overstimulating, and the gray skies only amped up the colors that much more. It was simply the best fall day, when the air is heavy with fog, and the leaves crunch satisfyingly beneath your sneakers. The smel

Robin Hood, surprisingly, wasn't bad. Costner's shocked response when he sees his father when he gets home is awful. His accent is horrific, but, it was a fun movie. Alan Rickman was simply superb, and it was nice to see Christian Slater as Will Scarlet. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align

It's low, low, low. My mother's aunt hired a caretaker because she was so distrustful of her own relatives.... a year later, the caretaker had her own name in the will and when my mother's aunt passed away everything went to her and she hasn't been heard from since then.

Nice hair color, too. At the start of every summer, I generally get my hair cropped to a couple of inches so it spikes straight up... and at the beginning of every fall I swear I'm gonna let my hair grow. Love the pictures!

Kevin Costner, how much you have done to hang my head. First Dragonfly, but I won't succumb to watching Robin Hood, Prince of Theives, I promise you that much. Guilty pleasures in watching Bull Durham, though. And what were you thinking about, teaming up with Ashton Kutcher? Leon's sent two young bucks to heft an old dryer out of the apartment, and bring in

Basically, both movies and the book forces us to ask the big question "why?" Why do we view the world around us the way that we do, and is human development unique, or are we programmed to be able to understand similarly? The book says that we retrieve and respond to information similarly, regardless of race, gender, and age, although, for those with certain learning disabilities or traumas, we do not. The movie The United States of Leland, shows disassociation in a young man, and of
