the most recent reason why i will not be allowed to be content with things as they are, even though i should be, i know, but sue me, but only after you look at this:

seriously. 
how is anyone supposed to be happy with their life?
for sale, now:
-
-
i keep making a list of drawbacks:
the bathroom might be drafty. 
the three stories are a lot of stairs . . . fuck.  there's an elevator.
the views are . . . unobstructed.  but . . . high.
there's a lot of clock faces?
oh, wait.
-
it's on the market for 25 million.

there we go. 
dream crushed.

editing remotely with gail gilbert -

my lovely friend gail gilbert,
the editor in chicago,
has been helping me with a little dialog spot i shot with 
our friends brandon and emily recently.
-
gail cut my very first spot ever,
and went on to become a fast friend.
-
she was almodovar's assistant when she started,
she brings a lovely rhythm to her film work.
-
and new tech. 
we did all the collaboration through ichat and final cut. 
-
looks a little something like this:
-
-
fun! 
even if she was conveniently never on screen.
subtle,
that one.

a classic GRR moment -

she's the dog 
for whom cuddling is at best, on her terms. 
meaning, when she is ready, 
when she decided YOU need it, 
but mostly, 
in the way she wants.
-
so she will kiss you and play with you and chase you and sit on you,
but doesn't really like being held down.
-
and NO, it doesn't sound familiar.  so shut up.
-
like, i'm cleaning up a couple of months ago while unpacking,
 and sit down to close my eyes for a minute. 
and wake up to this:
-
-
on my foot.  her way.
