A Year Ago: 'I was not aware until recently.  I did not know this music existed and I am sad for the time I missed and simultaneously glad for being here now. I'm not going to provide details of this band.  If you are interested please go ahead and search for that information yourself.  If you care, it may bring a smile.   I love the music I have heard from this band so far. Literally, everything makes me smile and feel an uplifted kind f joy that I do not feel often with just music.  Normally there has to be some sort of memory already attached to a song but this album I've been listening to today is phenomenal.  'right out tha gate.' DECIDE. Such a great word.  Yes, there are innumerable possibilities in this world.  Possibilities of the life you could live, the path you could take to lead you, hopefully, to heights of success and happiness you can't even imagine.  But, the thing is, you have to decide.  You can't let yourself sit there and think so much. 

I Love Dick

I Love Dick by Chris Kraus
does a fantastic job of showing the creative process...

sometimes it's easy, one person walks by and everything that your inner voice has been murmuring inside your head suddenly... becomes

an entire moment alights and flows all around your line of sight.
colors and sounds create a mood
or extend the one you are already in,
perhaps they even create a smile.

Other times it travels through a question in your head into cataloged imagery and sounds as you travel a path through your brain...maybe even walking along  a new wrinkle

and then you realize there are indeed new ways of seeing things 
and all you have to do is reach out 
and grab the potential thought, images, scenes, 
sounds 
all travel in rivers just within reach of each us
grab as you please, mold into a form 
and share when ready.










- I watched this on Amazon Prime and I love it.  I binge watch the season every couple of months
because it is a 'whole mood' as my niece says.  
The town of Marfa, Texas,  where most of the story occurs is a character in and of itself and the visuals create a sway like the ocean on a semi-calm day.  I can feel the heat on my skin.

I'm normally not very accepting of neuroses...at least not such powerful neuroses as those portrayed by Kathryn Hahn, but this one...the growth and the changes are recognizable to me.  The way she moves through her own difficulty and desire is harmonious.  Apparently, though I am not neurotic on the outside, I am on the inside.

This series ended too soon, as far as I'm concerned. 
I bought the book so I can get more details and, well, books are the jam.  Watch it.  I'm going to watch it again tonight.
