Jewels of life glitter.

Listening to: Rocky Votolato - The Bed Is Warm
Feeling:
Sleepy
I wish I had a way of recording video, taking pictures, writing things down, etc. without taking away from my actually being in the moment. On the other hand, there's so many times when I wish I'd taken at least a few damn pictures. There were so many thoughts and images in my head as I was driving back to Syracuse yesterday. I'm not sure I could even remember everything if I tried. Maybe I'll get it right someday... the perfect mixture of observing, of "capturing the moment" and living my life without any elongated pauses, due to recording what happened minutes prior. Or perhaps it is just a decision I have to make on a daily basis: do I want to be a part of this, or do I want to document it for the rest of the world to see?

My mind is still blurry. I'm exhausted from finals and all that jazz, I've pretty much been on auto-pilot for the past week or so. And for some strange reason, it always takes me a few days of being home before I actually feel "at home." And what better way to start the process, than to nap with my dogs?

How about a nice cup of tea?


In Surrealism awhile ago, someone mentioned Dali worked with Disney before he passed, but the art/film never was released. I found some of the artwork he did for "Alice In Wonderland" and it is amazing. I saved the others somewhere, but am unable to locate them at the moment. I can recall this one being my favorite though. It looks like he used watercolors [or acrylics with water] and ink, but I could be mistaken.

Thus continues my ongoing love affair with "Alice In Wonderland"...
