The April Cold

I have been sick all week with a horrible cold. AAAHHHH NO FUN!!

Someone once told me that getting sick means that your body needed a rest. And we have been really busy lately. Working on the fundraising trailers for the film has been really interesting. It is difficult trying to separate myself from the project - trying to maintain some sense of objectivity - and still being close to subject. I have a stack of movies I need to review for the Digital Bits. They have been sitting on my shelf for the last week. We have been swamped trying to get this business off the ground.

I have to say that it is nice being busy with projects that I care about - I have finally made it over the first hurdle.

Something I have learned this week - it's really important to surround yourself with people who believe in you - it's even more important to surround yourself with people that will help you grow as an artist. I feel really good about the people in my circle - I feel that they are pushing me in important ways. I don't feel bad about my abilities - I am excited at the possibility of growth.

I hope my cough goes away soon....

The path is there
for me to see

I know just where
its up to me

I know can walk
with both my feet

I will not balk
or skip a beat

slow and steady
that is the course

I know I'm ready
just use the force........... he he he

If I Told the Truth: Knitting is my therapy

It's true - I have been knitting now for almost a year and I love it. It's fun - it's a great thing to do when I want to keep my mouth shut at large group functions. (i.e. - I am naturally a person who shares far to many of his opinions at large gatherings - knitting is saving me from total embarressment - I know can shut my mouth)!!!

I love this picture!!

It has been a while

It's been a while
by me

it's been a while that i have spoke
about my truths it's time to poke

the job is normal, bad as hell
or is it me filling my well

the film is moving very fast
it's fun to learn about the past

but than sometimes, i need to stop
before my head begins to pop

so i sit at home with my cute guy
we make our dinner and wonder why

we work so hard at stupid things
and dream of more career flight wings

but there has been a major major change
we're doing the work we have found the range

between the artist child inside
and the major block we've tried to hide

but to hide the block is not the answer
we should face the thing as if it's cancer

the blockage killer the radiation
is to begin the process of creation

a simple poem like this that's bad
will prevent the child from going mad

Little boxes made of ticky-tacky

I have my new song for the moment...
Little boxes, the lyrics are attached.
This is how I feel right now.
I am a circle in a world of little boxes.

I have to finish my Miss Piggy post today. I will try to remember - anyway - check this song out on itunes - very simple - yet very apropo (sp?).


1. Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky-tacky,
Little boxes, little boxes,
Little boxes, all the same.
There's a green one and a pink one
And a blue one and a yellow one
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same.

2. And the people in the houses
All go to the university,
And they all get put in boxes,
Little boxes, all the same.
And there's doctors and there's lawyers
And business executives,
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same.

3. And they all play on the golf-course,
And drink their Martini dry,
And they all have pretty children,
And the children go to school.
And the children go to summer camp
And then to the university,
And they all get put in boxes
And they all come out the same.

4. And the boys go into business,
And marry, and raise a family,
And they all get put in boxes,
Little boxes, all the same.
There's a green one and a pink one
And a blue one and a yellow one
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same.
