Hotel Yorba by the White Stripes always puts me in a good mood. I bounce around with it.
Still don't get the appeal of white jeans, or any color of jeans except shades of blue. I've tried and I don't see it.
Much too late/early on New Year's Eve my friend Adam and I had quite a long conversation on creativity and kairos and several hours later I had a very similar conversation with my friend Katie and I'm beginning to think that "the now" is going to be the theme of 2009.
I spent New Years Eve at the Shop with Adam, Jonathan and a gaggle of friends, milling around the woodstove and talking til 5am. I love that place.
After the Shop I stayed at Margarita's house and we spent the day in our PJs, watching "Mythbusters" marathons and moving very little. I stayed in my PJs even when I went home and the only shoes I had with me were my cowboy boots and I looked like an idiot.
I'm really enjoying The Decemberists' "Always a Bridesmaid" series, specifically the song "Valerie Plame". Love that they'd have a song about the spy.
Had a dream about a porcupine that attacked me with its quills. Weird.
One of the most honest and sad and true songs I know is "Lover I Don't Have to Love" by Bright Eyes.
I think I'd like to get into building sets for productions and my volunteer with one of the acting troupes in the area. I understand the appeal of building without the pressure of permanence.
I would make a New Years Resolution but the only one I'd really want to make has to do with being more disciplined and if I'm not disciplined in the first place how could I even begin to keep up with my resolution? And thus the crux.

Whitney is working on the set of the new Lion Witch and the Wardrobe musical. Auditions were this past Saturday, so there's plenty of time to get involved if you would so like. We can get you two in touch.
