This has caused a halt in my plans for more epic bouts of creativity.
She was an incredible woman, and she's gone. I didn't get to see her before she went. We weren't as close as we could have been due to religious differences. I always loved and respected her. She amazed me and amazes me still. I miss her already....

But, on with the project. I got stalled because I got stuck. I wanted to write something for Greaser but had a brain fart every time I sat down to write.
My friend, I finally have a little something. It needs work. I may even have to write something else....

I see a wry smile
This struck me because I tend to smirk often. Sometimes I don't even realize that I'm doing it until someone asks me what I'm thinking about.
I'm truly flattered and humbled to know I've had an impact on you.
Much more love in return
The project is still on, it just got DELAYED by some silly drama. Not here drama, RL drama. I'll see if I can force creativity a couple of times before I leave for vacation on Saturday, but it may be difficult because my friends are finally reading my play for me ("David's Gods", not "Something Like Love") on Wednesday night. This means I'll...

I can quite sympathize with needing information now to prepare that won't be coming for a bit. I am desperately wishing I knew what to be gearing up on that would help me in my own hunt- so many things to choose, and any one could be pointless and any one I don't choose could be critical. It's a bit scary, especially since I don't know how much longer my current employers are going to find it reasonable to keep me there. They're good people, but at some level- business is business, and income is decreasing. I've been training my boss how to do everything I do... and now that that's close to done... it's just an uneasy feeling.
I've also had an uneasy feeling lately about around here. Something's missing. Something that made this place a lot more fun for me. That something may just be inside my head, but then it may not. Still, you are one of the people for whom, even if you just showed up once in a blue moon, it would be worth hanging around.

Thanks for dropping by- I always want to hear your news. And I'm always willing to wait.
Please don't read into it. Just know it's yours if you want it.
Her Daggers (for Sid, by Allegro)
1,000 tiny daggers
with 1,000 lovely points
Fly oh so silently
into 1,000 human joints
In 1,000 bones and muscles
and in your organs they cease
Giving heavy weight to...

It's strange. I've never worked on any single project as long as we were working on this show (close to two years). It's true most work was at the end, which is to be expected, but it was there in our consciousness...

I will patiently await more creative work from you, though if I don't see myself right away I will cry

Well, maybe not. But I am a little anxious



Thank you for taking a break from cleaning to share the pictures... it's always a distinct pleasure to see you at work.

I can't believe they never gave you your first paycheck. Greaser smash!


Which only makes sense since I am mailing you a letter today... but then I will take any excuse I can get.



Thank you so much for your sweet comment on my set... you're are very nice with me.. thanks.

This in incredibly unfortunate because the artists are unbe-fuckin'-leivably good. There's 110 artists I've never heard of in a bunch...

I'm in a much better place. I can't tell you how I got here, but I'm happy I arrived. It's not great, but I'll never turn down better.
I need to learn some music. Specifically, I need to learn some audition songs. The local theater group I'm most involved with is doing "Company" next spring, I want to...

You said: I suppose it's less about life vs. death and more about the mark you make isn't it?
I think it is. And I think a lot of people would really be surprised--shocked, in fact--to find out the indelible marks they have made, good or bad; how much of what we do and say to other people every day really IS heard or seen. With a word, a gesture - so little can mean so much.
Kinda scary, but also kind of amazing. Isn't it?
I actually visit this site once a day (usually). I'm lurking like crazy. I'm commenting on Member Review sets like it's my solemn responsibility. I'm read blogs and leaving no comments. I totally suck like that.
I've hardly known what to say.
If you'd like a dull, run of the mill update, there's some cool stuff going on. My boss agreed...

I understand your boy issues too....if the promise wasn't made...it would never be a big thought...but if he made it...he probably means it. Miss you, wish we got to talk more like old times!

I hope you don't give up on your dreams completely. Adjust them a bit to make them more accessible, maybe, but never give up on them

GEMINI [May 21-June 20] "The truth is always more interesting that your preconception of what it might be," says author Steven Levy. Journalists "should not have the stories written out in their heads before they report them. Preconceptions can blind you to the full, rich human reality that awaits you when you . . . approach the material with an open mind." I think that's...

I have a good excuse, but if you still feel the need to punish me I understand

That as a nice true story, by the way. Except for the part about you being hated, but I guess that's part of life sometimes. It's a small price to pay for all the good stuff

I owe you stories (amazing! true!), and at least one photograph (Lusyd! InnocentSid!).
You'll get them later. Right now I have 16 thank you cards to write and some serious stretching to do. Love to you all...

You and your family will be in my thoughts ♥
