On the Turntable

Wearing Gloves Inside

Low of 40° tonight.
No Heat
in this 1920's unit of mine.
Given, I live in los angeles...
but still!
Drinking copious amounts of Tea
while running the Stove for some warmth
just ain't cuttin' it.
Oh, if only I could afford
Real Clothes?
Extra quilts & blankets?
Endless Candles?

Lone World

'I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.'
- Jack London

I have rather serious questions left unanswered.
Decisions that can not yet be made.

The word
Vague
could define this blog of mine.

All I can really say is,
Thank goodness for
Pen&Paper.

Once Again,
Laura Marling anything....I'm In.

Be Fancy Free

It's time, to direct my mind on a purpose or plan.
to aim.
to redefine what it means to be serious about dreams.

It's crucial, for me to do this now.

Tonight's a Full Moon.
Tomorrow, a New.

Lets make this a turning point, Lu.

Mental Note

Live in the moment. Don’t allow stress to overcome you.
Embrace who you are.

With the Holidays right around the corner
(can you believe it!?)
Cooking has been on the Brain.
Along with all things French.
Currently reading about that French Gent above,
Auguste Escoffier.

Ganhi's Office

I'm a Floor-Person.
My Lounging, Meals, Projects, Computing and Sleep
take place all at
Ground Level.
Even if I possessed a desk, chair, sofa, or anything comfortable
to raise one off the floor....

I'd still prefer Gandhi's setup above.

Perfection.

Eggleston

“I’m at war with the obvious.”

This evening a couple friends and I went to view the
Eggleston exhibition at LACMA.
It’s the kind of show that reminds one why;
why take pictures;
why get out of bed in the morning.

It was a much needed boost.

These people existed.
Occurrences happened.
I am transported to a time and place,
through the physical traces of
History.

Art is a harmony parallel with nature.
