Dreams.

So I thought I would write this post before I head to bed.

About a week ago I finally went to see "The Devil Wears Prada". Okay, so I knew I would love this movie as soon as it came out, but being me I will wait and wait until it is just about to leave the theatres because I hate crowds.

So finally one Saturday night, a good month or so after it had come out Michael and I went to catch it. Think it was like a 9:30 show. Same weekend "Snakes on a Plane" came out. Only two screens at this place so there were two quite different crowds going inside.

Trailers all looked good. Movie was fantastic. They even had the song they play at the end of "So You Think You Can Dance". You know, the song they play when they kick you off and the song is part of your goodbye reel. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it.

So back to the reason for this post.

In the past week I have had two dreams all about fashion. I am not sure if it was from some influences from the movie or the fact that I don't miss an episode of Project Runway but it was nice.

The first dream was straight out of "Prada". Meryl Streep was Miranda and I was the assistant. Not sure if I was the 1st or 2nd assistant but I was there. Don't remember much of it, but I just thought it funny.

The second dream happened last week and I was actually at Vogue, but the editor was Kate Moss and I was there delivering something, ala a bike messenger, but before I knew it I was in a nice suppressed suit that fit like a glove and I was running around getting her what she needed. There was also a great white chair in the dream which I must have seen before but just in case I think I will draw it down somewhere should it be some incredible creation of my subconscious.

Who am I kidding? I probably saw the chair in the new Crate and Barrel catalog that just came.

Wow, I haven't rambled on like that for a while. See what happens when I look back at old posts from last year around this time. I get crazy and forget how to write. I start sending emails to people I don't even talk to anymore. I get hopeful again for new things.

Well, I won't be writing like this style much anymore, I have learned how to clean it up without editing it. Reaching out to people from the past isn't bad, I hope. And hope is always a good thing.

Just Wanted to Say Hi.

So after last night I decided I needed to get away. Got up this morning and hopped on a plane to a nice warm island in the middle of everything, I never really want to be in the middle of nowhere. You can see the hut they gave me in the far left side of the above picture. So much better than that foggy wet mess NYC has become over the last couple of days.

Who wants to join me? Forget that who wants to join me. There are only two people I might ask to come along. Bry? Michael?

Okay, so really I am sitting in front of my computer as usual having a little day dream, but doesn't that picture just make you leave yourself for a little bit? It is not amazing or overly luxurious but it is very relaxing and I could sit in a hut like that and just look out at the ocean.

I think it is time to get back to reality and go to Starbucks, okay, maybe I will stay in my hut for another 10 minutes then I will join the rest of you again.

See ya soon.

Very Tired...

well maybe not so much tired as I am wiped out.
Went to the YMCA tonight for the first time to get my bearings back when playing on a regulation height net and to play with my friends.
Was a lot of fun. Very good level of play too.
Just sitting here eating some pasta and turkey meatballs and some Energy VitaminWater.
No, I didn't eat before I went downtown, but I will know better next time.
Felt like I played a full Saturday of a usual tournament.
I will go again.

Photographer: Near or Far.....

My friend Troy has branched out and dropped the secure life we all know and cling to so he could realy dedicate himself to his love of photography. Obviously the photo above is a Troy Alexander photo from his site.

So here is his new website: Troy Alexander Photography

Any questions or comments for Troy can be sent to him through his website, please don't leave them on here because I don't always have a way of telling who is leaving messages.

Good luck Troy.

By the way, Troy is also a kick ass volleyball player.

Laters.

So It Is True About Reality TV.....

I was laying in bed last night just flipping through the channels around 2am when I got really high into the channels 800+. I came across FitTV and a show called Fit Family. I was watching for a few minutes when I realized I had seen this woman before. Wait, I had seen this fire fighter husband before and also these three kids. What gives?

Oh, they were the Pitt Family from Wife Swap and lived in a pet infested dump.

So I had heard that people really go from show to show but it is rare that I have seen a family go from show to show. I guess there isn't enough reality out there for everyone so some families just get a lock on it. Or could it be that most people don't want to be taped every second for this show and that show.

My friend in Miami saw this blog recently and said I was totally exposed. I beg to differ; I write about what I choose to. I edit, okay really I just try to spell check, but there is no hidden producer to make me seem one way or the other. I have all the control. I don't think I would be doing any reality show out there today, with the exception of The Amazing Race.

Makes you wonder how true is "reality"?

BTW, The Little Man Won Big.

Leslie Jordan picked up his first Emmy Award at the Creative Arts Primetime Emmy awards this past week for his role of Beverly Leslie on Will & Grace, but then again I told you last week that I thought he deserved it and hoped he would win.

Quite Simply; I Love the Colors

Was in the park the other day and just snapping away and just loved the way the bag was laying and the bright blue and yellow along with the yellow. It makes me happy, one of those simple little things that can make you smile.
