The Reaction of a Piece of My Artwork from My "Nephew"

First, he gasped and with widended, amazed eyes he exclaimed, "That's AWESOME!"

And, this is the piece in which his amazement could not be contained:
It was one of the greatest reactions I've ever received. He scrolled through all my pieces and he'd say, "I like that one," &c. At others he'd say, "I don't like it." I'd ask him why and he responded with, "Because it's pangit," (which in Tagalog means, "ugly"). Can you say, "WHOOPS!" HAHAHA!

I say he's my "nephew" (with quotations) because he's really not. He's the son of my cousins which would mean that he's my 2nd cousin, right? But, no. In my family tradition, he'd be my nephew=)

What's funny to me is that I don't really like the painting! It's this new style that I started painting in because I just wanted to. Though, the more people have responded to it, I may begin to like it...?

"Be My [G-D MotherEffing] Friend!!!"

I am high on, "Weeds."

Elizabeth Perkins has always been a favorite of mine. Mary-Louise Parker has been a recent favorite. She often reminds me of one of my good friends. The 2 together are dynamite. Mary-Louise plays Nancy Botwin and Elizabeth Perkins plays Celia Hodes.

I think that everything they touch turns to acting-gold!



Let this video be a warning to my friends...! =P

My New Favorite Show on TV: "Pushing Daisies"

Finally! A show packed with creativity, genunine warmth, charm, fun and eccentricities! Oh! And...LIFE!!! It's like a Technicolor-extravaganza. I mean, the saturation of color is tremendous and bold, and I Love it! On top of the technical aspects of the show...the cast is great and chock-full of Broadway Babies (Swoosie Kurtz, Ellen Greene, Jim Dale, Kristin Chenoweth...). The lead, Lee Pace as Ned, is absolutely likeable and I dig the way he delivers the dialogue. His partner, Chi McBride as Emerson, is equally likeable and quite funny. Anna Friel as Charlotte, aka "Chuck"...now, I did not know that she was in this! I first saw her in, "A Midsummer Night's Dream." She was also in CLOSER with Natasha Richardson, Ciaran Hinds and Rupert Graves. She is so deliciously adorable.

I love the twist to the show with Ned's being able to bring people back to life. The consequence of that power.















It's such a magical show. And, sometimes, we all need some magic in our lives. Good magic. Not that black magic stuff that can get you into trouble!

Here is a big and bold, BRAVO!, to Bryan Fuller, the creator.
