its a world of laughter

My gentleman friend has introduced me to a Disney artist named Mary Blair. Her style is immediately recognizable from Disney Movies and those Golden Books we all had when we were children (mine were peed on and chewed up by my dog Pepper).

Anyway, in these difficult times, her cheery, whimsical, colorful perspective makes me happy. Have a look.

4 in the morning

maybe if i got glasses things would be better. a nice sturdy pair of glasses that would say to the world i'm serious about me. unfortunately, i don't have vision problems, at least not in the literal sense.

it's 8:26 am. i plan to go back to bed after this post.
to do:
laundry
dishes
keep up the job search

i'm sorry i'm not as bright and bushy tailed as you would like.

it occured to me that i need not play the victim constantly. it also occured to be that i need not write publicly about my inner thoughts.

the only thing worth watching on television is american idol. i needn't worry about virginia tech. very sad, yes. no more information needed, thank you.

alec baldwin is calling his daughter a pig. this shouldn't concern me. i don't know him. i do not know alec baldwin.

lifes candy and the suns a ball of butter

i have been reading (listening to) christopher anderson's "The Way She Is," a biography of barbra streisand. the book is a little much, and i love it. the basic theme is that barbra was and is very demanding. anderson's book is basically a list of every demand streisand has ever made in her life. flowers, makeup, camera angles...

well how the hell else are you supposed to get anything done in this world? how else are you supposed to "get a leg up," as my good friend ms. buller asks? jesus christ!

like streisand, i have learned the hard way- no one is going to do it for you. you have to make the calls, you have to set up the appointments, you have to take out enormous student loans, you have to do your laundry and you have to buy your own diet pepsi. and its exhausting. how dare anyone question anyone elses choices. how dare they!

like streisand, when i am on oprah, i too will demand a microphone the same color of whatever donna karan pantsuit i am wearing. i want the audience to look at me, not the microphone. these are things you just have to learn from being in the business!
no one is going to tell you that.

rarely is anyone going to help you out in this business of show. its a rough dirty business where egos collide like bumper cars at a carnival. if you want cotton candy, you have to get out of your bumper car and get it yourself! no one is going to get it for you. if you want to tickets for another ride you better get a job and buy them yourself. don't waste your time looking on the sawdust ground for dropped tickets, you'll spend your whole life doing that and by the time you find them the carnival will be closed. it doesn't matter how many tickets you find you'll never be able to ride the rides if there is no carnival. did you ever think about that?

all i'm saying is no one is going to appreciate what you do, ever. no matter how hard you try there will always be a pack of gum smacking naysayers commenting on the choices you've made in your life.

the trick is to ignore them. ignore everyone. put on your orange dress and fur hat and get on that boat.

the story of easter

easter makes me think of sunday school in california. i remember half listening to some story about jesus dying and coming back to life. seemed a little suspicious. something about a rock being moved. the entrance to a cave where he was hiding? did he go into a cave? and then they found his dreamcoat?

jesus was crucified and on the third day (everything is in threes right? like die hard and back to the future movies) he rose again and he said that he had died for all of our sins. all very confusing. like murder she wrote.

i saw "who's afraid of virginia woolf" last night with Ms. Kathleen Turner. i went with two dear friends. the play was great. ms. turner, despite some coughing that wasn't in the script was genius! bill irwin was wonderful. although, i must say, like the story of easter and murder she wrote, i had trouble following. i had seen the movie and remembered that i liked it. but i know now that i liked it not because of the story but because of elizabeth taylor. in the climactic scene at the end where they are talking about their son, i wanted to get up, stop the play and say--

"ok. before we go on, was there a son? did you have a son or were you writing a book about a son? was the son gay? is that what all this fighting is about? because i remember that there was a movie that elizabeth taylor was in "suddenly last summer" where she's all upset because a gay guy killed himself. is that what this ones about? is martha barren? if we could have a quick discussion i think i would get a lot more out of this. and while we're at it- how old are you kathleen turner? and why the tj maxx pajama pants? elizabeth taylor did not wear those as i recall. and i loved you in war of the roses. and your voice reminds me of my friends mom. and i loved you in serial mom. and i did not see body heat but i know that was your breakout movie. thank you."

i did not say these things and i am still unclear as to what all the fighting was about. im sure my boyfriend can fill me in. oh how he must suffer with a mildly retarted boyfriend who cant digest a simple plot.

there were some mumblings in the bathroom during the play:

"she has arthritis, that's why she's so puffy. it's because of the medication she takes."

"she's just a puppy. she's fifty two. just a puppy." -- a puppy!!! gross

"i saw it in the seventies i think. must have been the seventies."

then after the play two old ladies, one with died eggplant hair with white roots and balding hair:

"aren't you glad we came. it's really exhausting. i knew you'd be glad we came"

stories are hard to follow and hard to tell. but that's not really the point, is it? the point is what you look like, if you're gay or not, where or if you can smoke, where the nearest 24 hour walgreens is, and if you think you can get by another day without taking a shower.

exactly

Haven't been feeling well the last three days. Can not get enough sleep. Mumblings from loved ones about not going outside, living in a cave, etc. I don't believe this is the case. Probably Epstein-Barr virus, which we all remember as a very serious disease. Dorothy struggled with it in a two part Golden Girls episode. Not to be sniffed at.

So I'm dealing with that. Also "looking" for a job. A humiliating pursuit:
-Turn product features into strong consumer benefits
-Craft compelling sales propositions
-Shoot yourself in head

It's all bullshit. Can we cut through the bullshit people???

Office in weird downtown building needs someone who can pretend to work. Looking for someone with severe personality problems to deal with manager who also has severe personality problems. Duties consist of making copies of things that will never be looked at again, lots of UPSing.

I don't know what you want but I can't give it anymore.

I just want that hip Sedaris lifestyle. Just lots of crazy crafty parties, making up your own rules. Hilarity. Thrift store clothes and smoking. A kitschy lamp and a vintage stuffed animal with one eye missing.

Spent the morning showing unreleased Madonna videos to boyfriend who was diligently working on a mass email.
