This was fun. Kind of difficult to choose sometimes. I'm happy with the results; I think one test actually compared me to white bread. Much more pleased with this one!

I have a serious aversion to anything remotely resembling rejection. I like to see myself as level headed and basically sane but the slightest twinge of 'no' sets me into tailspins. Sometimes, like tonight, they're very mild and I can see them for what they are; bad brain noise feeding me nonsense. Other times, they're full on meltdowns of epic ( Read more... )

I was driving to my class at CR. Midday traffic, a stop light on the corner of Broadway and Wabash. Car stalled and wouldn't re-start. Lovely. Why is it when your car stalls, thus blocking traffic do people then treat you as if you're doing it on purpose? Do they think I'm participating in some kind of performance art piece? Maybe they think I'm ( Read more... )

I auditioned for a show with NCRT last night. Very nearly didn't show for lots of silly reasons but decided to go in the end. I was called tonight to be in the chorus, so yay! We were told at the audition that the chorus has tons of stage time and there's lots to do so I imagine I'll be pretty busy over the next couple of months. Rehearsals start ( Read more... )

Here is my second ever reconstruction project. The first was a skirt made from a sweater. This is a hat made from a blazer and lined with skirt material. The brim is too narrow for me so I gave it Kahvi but all in all I'm pleased considering I knocked off the pattern from another hat and just winged it. So, here are some pictures. Next time, ( Read more... )

...jiggidy frikkin jig. Usually eight hours of driving doesn't work me this hard but I got sick on this trip. My ears are buzzing and my head is achy but I'm glad to be home tonight instead of putting it off. It was a pretty good trip, dysfunctional family nonsense aside. I managed to get a run in the second morning. I bailed on the other days ( Read more... )

This song I've been working on has actually been around awhile. It's one of those I liked well enough to keep. The subject matter is very close to me and I really needed to write it. Still, it's never settled, some of the lyrics were awkward and dorky, first draft status and the melody sappy. So, as per my quest to 'finish' all of my songs, I've ( Read more... )

Ok, not so secret perhaps. I knew this all along yet would cave at the slightest resistance. So, here I am persevering and it's paying off. I'm basically re-writing one of my songs that has never felt right. Tweaked some lyrics, altered the chords a bit and suddenly it's a different yet the same song. Ok, it's the way the song was meant to be but ( Read more... )

I had a dream about Brooklyn last night. Most of the dream centered around me trying to find the apartment where I was to feed someone's cat. The apt was #79 and I never could find it after wandering down many hallways, opening many doors and asking lots of people. 79 was very prevelant as I kept asking people for it. At one point, I was in someone ( Read more... )
