Lavender Of The Field

I'm not 100% sure where this exquisite lavender field is, but my Google search has me thinkin' it's in France.  Well, wherever it is, it appears to be one of the most beautiful and peaceful-looking places I've EVER seen!  EVER!  Heck, I'd love to just walk through it with a friend or two (I'm talkin' alcoholic beverages, thank you very much), but a human or two could also tag along!  Haaaa!

Breakin' Through

Last Monday night, I walked into Breakin' Through Acting Workshop and had NO IDEA what to expect!  BOY oh BOY was I BLOWN AWAY!  There were 22 actors in class and ALL 22 took to that stage (MULTIPLE TIMES, mind you) and BLEW the ROOF OFF that space!  I sat there thinkin', WHATTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!  Mr. Choice Skinner is NO JOKE when it comes to putting his TALENTED group thru their paces!!!!!  I was THOROUGHLY ENTERTAINED!!!!!  Truth be told, I haven't witnessed such FEARLESSNESS in AGES!!!

BRAVO to the ACTORS and BRAVO to Choice Skinner for making it all POSSIBLE!!!!!

With a HAPPY ENDING

Ain't NOTHIN' like a good ol' BACK MASSAGE!

Truly NOTHIN'!!!!  :) :) :)  :) :) :) :)

Good Night, Michael

Michael Maddox

Today was the passing of fashion show producer and runway instructor MICHAEL MADDOX.  I have never actually met him, but once, I sent him an e-mail, telling him how much I enjoyed watching a YouTube video of him and a group of young models he had helped put on the road to realizing their professional dreams.  I recall he sent me back a polite note and that was that.

Since my e-mail to him, though, I have heard some not-so-flattering things about him and have read some really incredible tributes to him posted to his Facebook page.  So, whatever the real story is, I hope and pray his transition into "The Other" world was painless.  Cancer is what took him outta here.  What a wicked, wicked disease.

Anyway, I hope those who loved him will find some peace in his being spared from any more pain and suffering.  All deaths aren't tragic.  They're simply inescapable.

God rest his soul.  He was born the same year as I.

The Avenger

This past week, I've been driving a white, 2013 or '14 Dodge Avenger.  I can't say that I've ever really heard much about the model, but I like it.  Not as much as I like the 2014 Chevy Malibu, but hey, it'll do!  I'll return it Tuesday and pick up something else on Wednesday.  I sure hope a Chevy Malibu is on the lot, 'cause that dang car was/is NIIIIIIIIICE!

But, heck, as my mama used to always say:  "Beggars can't be choosers."  She also said:  "You pay the cost to be the boss."  So, since I'm paying, I reckon I can request a Malibu if I want one!  Yep!  :)  

New BEGINNING

As long as God feels a need to AWAKEN me from slumber, I shall begin anew.

Every...

Single...

Time.

To Whom It May Concern

I can introduce you to someone SPECIAL.
But what I can't do is make you APPRECIATE him.
