Today I’m counting all of you who have left kind comments on the news of my friend’s recent loss. You didn’t have to… I didn’t ask you to… but you did. That speaks volumes! I told him about it yesterday and sent him an e-mail today with a link here. I am very moved by the compassion you have expressed and I’m sure he will take comfort in it as well. Just a note: The …
… of what I’ve been working on. This is especially for those of you who have been sticking with me and Morty on this crazy ride. It’s just a 2 page excerpt… but I think it will give you a bit of a flavor of the piece. Because you get this insight… there will be no write track from me today. Perhaps you could suggest one of your own.This is also my count today. That …
This may come off as a cop-out… it’s not really. I will warn you that it’s a long and involved read but it’s something that I’ve posted before for Picture Daze. Be that as it may… here is the original post. (But, hey… there are lots of pictures to look at,) And… sorry, the offer at the end of that post is not valid this time around. If you are so inclined… you may post …
OK… I’m a little pissed off tonight… but there is still loads to be thankful for. This week I count patience. Patience in others. Patience in myself. Patience in allowing situations to unfold instead of forcing them. Now, patience may not always bring the results that we may desire. It may not even pay the dividends that we think we deserve. But what patience brings to us is the knowledge that nothing is as important …
I first became aware of her presence in my early 20’s when I wrote my first play. We flirted off and on for about 10 years before she agreed upon an exclusive and special arrangement with me. It has been a while since we’ve been together but of late, much to my delight, we have reunited once more. As always the experience has and continues to be nothing but pure excitement. Everytime we do meet… …
It’s not like we hadn’t met before but the first night was tenuous. There was a flurry of prep on my part (and a little distraction) in getting the environment just right for this meeting. Was everything comfortable? Did I have the right music to set the mood? The music was easily a distraction… yet putting the tracks together provided some comfort, calm and a little more confidence to face what could be ahead. Finally, …
CLICK HERE FOR ACCOMPANYING SOUNDTRACK TO THIS COUNT. I have lived in this neighborhood for the past 16 odd years. It is nestled in the Tower District – the cultural part of town… but that’s a count for another time. The actual area I live in was once called Normal Heights. Most of the homes around here were built between the 19-teens and the 1940’s… every one of which has a character and personality of …
It’s 1:30 Am and I just got back from tonight’s Rogue Year Round. So, this is a late (early) post. I am counting on my insanity tonight. That which makes many cock their heads to the side like dogs in a stupor over the things I do and how I do it. It has been that way all my life… the reaction, that is. No one really gets what I do and why I do …
My count today are performers whom I’ve had the honor to experience live. It really doesn’t matter if they are musicians, actors… any performer for that matter! There is something divine in the act of creation. They are channeling something that is beyond the normal and yet in the process of doing so tapping into and expressing something that is profoundly about the human experience. I guess that is why the arts is classified under …
