figmentation

A really significant goal? I don't think I have anything lofty, but losing 40 pounds feels very significant right now.

Regarding yesterday's conversation, here are some books for you.

These cover essential requisites and give a large vision of film:

Proper film theory:

The volumes below have a variety of articles by classical or contemporary film theorists, some much heavier than others. I avoided whole books by classical theorists at this time, rather focusing on diversity of viewpoints:

The beginning of the recommendations, hehe!

Ah! Regarding significant goals...

nona?

Yeah I read that article, didn't surprise me in the least...

Ha, that's what my wife tells me all the time. I have 2 left feet, and unfortunately she can dance like a pro! I don't know what she saw in me.

At least you're not asking yourself . . . how many Summers do I have left!

South for the winter.

that is really cool. He really is a good speaker. It gives me a little hope for the future. I just hope that even if we get a good president in the upcoming election that people don't think "we've made the change" and return to a state of complacency. Lately things have made me look at the state of the world and think that people need to get proactive and change direction. I dunno. One can hope i suppose.

i really enjoyed that video... thank you! As for what he's trying to do... Well i think there is a certain sense of spirituality and faith that is important to have within one's self (separate from organized religion and the like) if people are to be empowered and try to really do something with their lives. Maybe he won't change the world, but he certainly evokes a certain passion or emotion that has been known to bring out the most amazing things in people...

oh. and on the note of that book.. I fear it may have slipped under my bed or otherwise into obscurity and i've been distracted by a dozen other things i've been up to. But i can proudly say i have read two books in the last month so i'm not just some lazy bum who doesn't read!

Hey fig! How's your day today? I hope going well. Mine is rocky.

i had an informal job interview. and it went good. i like the job. i just REALLY REALLY REALLY hope the guy calls back tomorrow afternoon. that would make me happy.

mmm. soup.
i somehow just spent 8 and a half hours recording and writing some music on my computer. I've never had the brain to actually get any constructive work done before and it was so damn exciting and fun and rewarding. The crazy thing is that in those 8 and a half hours all i actually have as my finished product is a 2 minute outro. But i am proud.

i am glad you took your shoes off. i love that feeling.

Ooh I love eating food!

Stubborn people suck, they make friendships very difficult.

Do you know where my camera is?

Brussels! Most amazing one I've ever seen, made me want to be five years old again...terrifically weird and awesome.

what?
no comments?

people!
doesnt' this bother any of you?

Ooo, snow. Lucky ducky. It missed us, so all we got was rain.

So what were your dreams about. One of mine last night involved a leopard spotted big bat that blended in perfectly with our leopard spotted faux fur throw, then clamped down on my lips so all I could smell was its bad breath. That was the most normal of my dreams last night.

Is there a market where you are for someone to do house-sitting? Put an ad in the Citizen Times, saying you're available for house-sitting and pet siiting for people on vacation. That could get you lots of alone time. Just a thought!

Kick-ass.
Har har.

"sportsman", hm?

Also, I have just revised my opinion of mountain lions.
