Entries from December 2007
Here we are at the last day of the year. I’ve been getting a lot of grief for being so slow about blogging. I’ve had the hardest time trying to decide what to blog about. I used to blog a lot about independent filmmaking, animation and education. But, if you follow this blog, you already know how all of that turned out. So much of what has occurred in the last year has altered my life phenomenally. Some days, I hardly recognize my life anymore. It’s a funny thing to have happen in midlife. Sometimes I laugh because I think, heck, I didn’t have to have a mid-life crisis .. a crisis decided to have me. Total cataclysm. Force majeure. I’m quite certain 2008 will be quite transformational.
Alec went back to New York City today. He wanted to spend New Year’s Eve in the Big Apple. His flight got into JFK at 5:03 so he and Pacino and the rest of the gang will have plenty of time to get to the party. They’ve got a hotel room in SoHo (where he works) so the festivities should be well contained. I recall many wild and crazy New Year’s Eves in my past so I want him to have fun … safely.
My friend, Elisa, came to town over the weekend. We were talking about how different his life would be since he’d had this time in NYC. He says he loves it there. On February 15, it will be two years. Amazing since he just turned 20. I could never have done what he did. He had never been to the city when we sent him — with a one-way ticket and ten days in a B&B — to take a class, find a sublet and try something new. Seriously. We sent an 18-year-old boy to NYC alone and somehow believed he could figure it out. It was a little bumpy for a while but he figured it out and now he really likes life in the city. He also loves his work. He is still doing post-production, motion graphics … the thing he learned in his animation and film production classes at MCC. Another irony, to be sure.
As the year closes, I look back at all we accomplished and I feel quite happy and amazed. The films. First edit and second edit complete. Meetings with distributors. Working on the fine cut now. We also wrote the script for COYOTE — a nice, tight script. Now, we’re getting another script ready (one that I am so excited about, I can hardly contain myself) that for now has the titles AN EXAMINED LIFE or TWO LADIES — depending on what mood either of us happen to be in for the day — a story that I’m sworn to secrecy on. So, while preparing things for the hearings (I could write a couple of books about that experience), we kept doing our creative work. So, I feel quite good about that.
Today, Pamela Jo and I were discussing New Year’s Resolutions. She said she didn’t make them. That New Year’s Day was just an arbitrary, humanly-defined day of change. She said that anything that wasn’t in already in motion probably couldn’t manifest in the new year. So, I agree and disagree with her (what a shock). It is true that it is an arbitrary day but anything that helps to encourage commitment to change and growth has to be good. And, we do already have all of those things in motion so they have the possibility of unfolding in the coming year. Out with the old, I say, and in with the new. Starting right now.

Alec returned to the Valley of the Stunned for Christmas. He brought home some music for me. He sure knows my tastes! He was telling me the artist, Sara Bareilles writes and performs her own material. I loved the song LOVE SONG. Her website features a lot of her songs. She also video pieces. Check it out!

Tonight is the night. The Maricopa Community College Board will finally decide my fate tonight. It’s been postponed so many times at the last minute that I keep wondering if we’ll make it for real this time. It starts at 6:30 p.m but you have to come about 15 minutes early if you want to say something. There’s a form to fill out and, if you give them a copy of what you’re going to say during the “Open Mic” session, they’ll include it in the permanent record. The details are …
Be there at 6:15 sharp …

My friend from Tucson has been encouraging me to take a few days and do something fun. So, we spent a long weekend in Los Angeles goofing off. As always, it was nice to get away. It rained most of the day Friday and was quite chilly on Saturday and Sunday but, from what I hear, it was a whole lot better than the weekend in Phoenix. In addition to a sojourn in Santa Monica, we went to the Getty on Saturday morning and spent Saturday evening at the Griffith Observatory. Going to Griffith after dark was just awesome. We went up to the roof to gaze out the telescope. Docents had set up three telescopes on the front lawn so we could look at Mars, the Orion Nebula and the Andromeda cluster. The exhibits were interesting but the actual sky is always much more captivating. Elisa was also excited to be seeing the shooting location for the key scenes in James Dean’s REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE.
On Thursday and Sunday we went to the Farmer’s Market because we found a fun shop. The Shine Gallery is full of vintage memorabilia. Apparently the owner goes around buying up the contents of old warehouses, factories and closed stores. You never quite know what you’re going to find in the shop because it’s largely dependent on what happens to have been left behind. There were magic tricks that I recalled paying 10¢ for as a child, bakelite dice, cap guns, water pistols and police badges. There were old political pins, banners from sporting events, dangerous toys that would be banned in a matter of seconds and politically-inappropriate trinkets. Elisa was captivated with the Circus Dexterity Puzzles (plastic circle with three little BBs that you have to get into the clown’s eyes or whatever). I settled on the Green Dice and a few other cools things that shall remain unmentioned until after the holidays. If you find anything for the BabyBoomer on your Christmas List, The Shine Gallery does ship.
