today made me a firm believer in diane court's theory of convergence "I have this theory of convergence, that good things always happen with bad things. I know you have to deal with them at the same time, but I just dont know why they have to happen at the same time. I just wish I could work out some schedule." |

...so i do have a mindless bullshit post, after all. i went to tower records today and bought, ahem, about 7 new cds. none of which suck. however, one of them has now earned my title of best fucking cd on the planet (at least for a while): an import "best of" by everything but the girl. i listen to the cds i have of theirs every once in a while...and i always love them. but this cd. oh. my. goodness. amazing mixes of songs that i have never heard. some of the acoustic tracks from early years. tracey thorn singing corcovado, which some of you know is one of my favorite songs ever - period. this one was SO worth the import price. |

this morning while i was driving around running errands, i was listing to q100 and they were talking about new years resolutions. im not a big fan of them myself. i always set goals for myself but...resolutions never seem to pan out. instead, they propose that you go through this list of 17 questions, really think about them, and apply to answers in a way to really make some life changes. they've had me thinking all morning. im going to try and answer them for myself. maybe i'll share them here. which ones strike a cord with YOU? here they are.... 1. If I had to wear my philosophy of life as a motto on a T-shirt, what would it be? 2. When was the last time I felt Joy? Not just pleasure, joy. Was it provoked by a someone, a something, a somewhere? That soaring feeling still lives inside of me. What can I do to wake it up? 3. Is there anything unfinished in my life that I am willing to walk away from? In other words, what can I clear out and just say I'm done with. Maybe it's time to make room for new dreams. 4. Am I inhibited by a fear of failing? Just for a moment, pretend that failure is a triumph, not a shame. Now, what would I reach for, what would I risk? 5. If I were able to take my 10 year old self to lunch, what would he/she think of me? Do I still have his/her passions.... opinions.....willfulness? Do I still know what he/she knows? 6. Do I believe in God? What exactly is my position on the Big Questions? Do I have spiritual beliefs that are truly my own, not someone else's? 7. Have I made a home for myself? Or am I still waiting for my Real Life to begin? I already know I don't have to be married or mortgaged or otherwise permanently committed to nest. So what's keeping me from saying this is my Real Life right now? 8. If I could take a 6 month sabbatical from my current job, what would I do? Travel around the world? Perform good deeds? If I don't know the answer, how can I begin to figure out what my dream is? 9. What do I like most about my appearance? What are my secret vanities? Can I be a showoff for a change? Can I strut my stuff on a regular basis? 10. How do I envision myself at age 60? What would I like to look like? What would I like to know that don't know now? What should I be doing now that I will happily look back on then? 11. Am I living my life for an audience? Have I internalized a watchful someone: Mom, Best Friend, Ex-Boyfriend? Is my audience worthy of judging me? How can I banish them forever and live for myself? 12. What can I do about the people I have disappointed and been disappointed by? If I could heal a damaged relationship, would I? Is there anyone whose lost friendship and regard I mourn? Or is it time to move on? 13. How much money will I need for retirement? Does simply asking the question make me hyperventilate? Can I stand to do the math? Am I brave enough to begin? 14. Am I as healthy as I want to be? If I imagine myself, circa 2003, how would I like to feel, physically and mentally? What steps should I be taking now to make sure that ideal becomes reality? 15. Am I capable of being alone? Does the prospect of an entire weekend by myself stimulate or panic me? If I'm not in psychic shape for the occasional bout of solitude, I need to be. Start thinking about what is scary about aloneness and how to overcome it. 16. Do I see success as a lavish banquet or a scarce commodity? When a good friend triumphs, do I feel depleted-------as if there's a limited amount of goodies to go around? Is it possible to transform envy into a this-means-I-can-do-it-too signal? 17. How do I want to love and be loved? What is my definition of a wonderful marriage, partnership, love affair? How close have I come to finding that? What is left for me to know or do in order to attract the love I want? |

- hay you! - next time you clog up my e-mail with photos of your nether regions, im gonna beat you within an inch of your life - and not in a way you're gonna enjoy! ;) for the record, they both look EXACTLY the same in those dark ass photos...but the cut of the buffalo look better than the mavi ones. - went to the local with peep last night. had many vodka and sodas and played darts for the first time. even managed to WIN the last game...but im sure pete was just taking it easy on me. as for the prediction that my arm would hurt today....umm...OW! i can mostly bend it :/ - i keep thinking of one person in particular i'd like use as a jungle gym today. ;) - another thanks to beta for making me cry yesterday ;) - broccoli rules. |

its been a very tough year for those people who were inspired (and are still inspired by) the world of photography and the artists involved. first kevyn aucoin dies...and today the news breaks that herb ritts passed away at the age of 50 from complications of pneumonia (or something else they dont want to really say). ![]() herb ritts' photography is probably the single strongest influence on me and why i wanted to get into the business that im in. i grew up saving my allowance for italian vogue and the 10 other magazines a month that i bought and hurried home to tear through and just look in awe at these amazing images. ![]() herb ritts had the amazing gift of making women look better and sexier than they really looked or had ever looked before - and taking real people and celebrities and making them REAL....only better. the era of supermodels was ushered in by Naomi Campbell and Cindy Crawford and Helena Christensen (remember the videos for Madonna and Chris Isaak and Michael Jackson where all you wanted to do was look at the girl?). That LIGHTING...the contours and the shadows and how everyones eyes looked like they reached right into their soul. who CARED about the clothes or the imperfections? he bathed his subject in light and they looked like they shined like that *all the time*. herb ritts created what i would consider to be the most iconic, amazing images of the mid 80s and all of the 90s...and continued to shoot some of the best celebrity portraits around. im incredulous that he's really gone - its like your favorite teacher or mentor or professor suddenly being out of your life. that type of talent and inspiration will not easily be forgotten or replaced. ![]() |

- would you people shop at a store full of "things that dont suck?". crimmus shopping was just a total suckfest. do people actually BUY the shit that's in stores? no wonder retail is going down the crapper... - gangs of new york = another total suckfest. if hair could win an Oscar, it would go to Cameron Diaz. other than that, spend your $7 at Taco Bell or something ![]() - is it just me or is this the best that Drew Barrymore has EVER looked!? i despise her and i still think she looks amazing in this photo... |
