One of those moments......where everything becomes clear. In that special instant, you knew you were on the right path but something pushes you along your journey a little farther, opens your eyes a little wider, makes things more brilliant, , more clear, precise and diverse all at once. My words don't even explain how I feel...... they don't do it justice at all.

It amazes...

Ohhh. I love those moments. It's so easy to just run around in circles without any clear objectives. I just live sometimes and that's it, but it's awesome when something comes around and snaps me out of it, just makes me think about goals and puts me back in direction.

I just felt like a name change. I was bored with the other. SONIC JUNKY! Sounds so 80's doesn't it? and I don't think a moment goes by that I'm not listening to music, so it's fitting.... It's either that or ATOMIC MONKEY! Haha. I don't feel any connection to that one though.

And you? I see you've changed again.

glad to hear things are well.

I have a love- hate relationship with technical support personelle. For obvious reasons, they help fix the problem and get things in working order. However, I am one of those annoying people, who need not only to get things working but want to know HOW IT WORKS. I'm often insatiably curious about how things run, how things work and how the big picture functions. In...

Have you ever read "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance"? That sort of gets at this issue that you're bringing up, which I think is pretty important. I'm the same way - I don't want to do or use anything if I don't have at least a pretty good idea of how it works. But I feel like a lot of people out there just aren't like that. They could care less about how something works, as long as it works. It's a fundamentally different mindset and we have a hard time understanding each other.

You're right about tech support training being really awful. Did you know that most tech support staff are rated based on how quickly they 'solve the problem'? Meaning the faster they get you off the line, the better off they are. Not exactly the ideal way to make sure that all problems are thoroughly addressed.

This is a fairly personal blurb.....maybe it shouldn't be in here but that's where it ended up. I'm shedding the last bits of anger and frustration that have hung on to me. I think I need to just let it rip instead of just swallowing it all and pretending that it doesn't bug me. It's funny how sometimes little things will get under your skin...

I've having one of those moments where after rehearsing a dance piece I'm frightened of it. I don't know if frightened is the right word...maybe it's a wordless thing...the fear of what the dance may or may not hold. Will it say anything to the audience? Will it convey anything....can I hold them? Will it be boring? Will it be meaningless to them?


It's like...

Hey, your blacklight set is really cool smile was it rejected? :/
legionnaire:
The adage sounds really difficult, both to perform and appreciate. I think for those sorts of pieces you need to be selective about who your audience is - some artwork wasn't meant to be appreciated by the masses, and that's what this sounds like. It also sounds fascinating, and worth the effort learning to appreciate. Do you write your own dance pieces, or are you learning ones that others have choreographed?

Yep...changed the nick.
I ran across it reading...it's a very special Finnish word and immeadiately I identified for a variety of reasons.

I've been to Finland and it's extraordinary.

It rhymes with miyoo. Hehehe....

The meaning of the word defines the very binding of who I am.

Oh dear! I hope that you and the little one are recovering well. (You with teeth, he with cold.) Sending some of my very best stari hugs and soothing vibes for health and healing. *long-distance smoosh*

I want to see a whirling, dancing sisu soon. Got that, girlie! kiss kiss kiss

PS~ Thanks for the compliment on my beach pics. I'm camera crazy and that is my favorite Oregon beach. I'm so glad you liked the beauty and wonder that I could share in my images. blush

Well before I went to bad last night, it felt like someone punched me. I feel much better this morning but my lip is a little puffy and it feels like I brushed my front teeth way too hard.

The little dood is sick today and he couldn't have picked a shittier time to have a cold but what are you going to do? Offer...

Well....my face is FROZEN and my lip feels like something off of a cartoon. I was at the dentist from 11:30-3. All my temporaries are in place and I have perfect teeth! Yay! The actuals get put in in two weeks..... Right now I would give goobery kisses! biggrin kiss

azrael_abyss:
Right the fuck on, well except for the numbness and what not. That's so fucking cool. kiss Good luck with getting the permanents in!
9monty:
Damn multiple time zones!

Hope you're feeling okay, though I'm sure they gave you some goodies that have you on a planet something different than okay. How was Mother's Day? I'm taking for granted that you guys have it up there as well. smile

Well, today was a day of eating way too much. Mom's day brunch with the family. Not used to eating that much that early. Ugh.

My bro and I chipped in together and got my mom a graphics tablet. No screwing around with flowers. It's all about cool hardware around here.

Tomorrow I have this big dentist appointment. A little nervous.

I' m missing my...

I think it must have been the full moon... so many weird people out and about.

Do you have any pictures or videos of your dancing? I'm really interested - I know almost nothing about contemporary dancing but it sounds fascinating.

And I'm the same way. I enjoy visiting other places, but it's nice to be home.

Well...what's new in miyoo's world.....
Lots. Hehehe......

Cancelled one of my performances and man do I feel better. It was turning into a logistics nightmare. The performance is solidifying nicely in my brain and I'm getting so excited!
I applied to dance at fFida and I'm hoping they will let me know soon....that would mean a most excellent road trip to Toronto in August.

I'm...
