2006-Jan-6 - Ahhh Xmas Time...
 
This fine gentleman held the spout for me. OhioKat and IndyElroy likes to kick it wit me on New Year's.
So some of you might wonder how an aspiring performer unwinds while back in the home country. Keggin and boogyin- I think that's all that need be said. Of course there is the requisite family time seated round the hearth swappin yarns, sippin cocoa, and playin Dreamcast (yes, there is still at least 1 Sega Dreamcast in usage and my folks have it in their living room- my kin and I enjoy Gauntlet Legends where 4 play at once!). But mainly it's lettin loose and sleepin late. Every now and then one has to field those questions about how long one plans to keep up his quest in the face of such staggering odds- yes, this talk can be tedious and perturbation inducing, but all one needs to is smile and say with a wink: "Ohh we'll just see what the Good Lord has planned for me won't we." How can a great-aunt respond to that? Such a lofty spiritual question is essentially a rhetorical one. Unless, of course, your great-aunt is into wikka or atheism. Then some elaboration might be necessary.
Anyway- I've tangentialized a bit here. Just wanted to relate the warmth I felt back home to y'all. Here's to hoping all of you out there questing in environs far from your families have the same support I have. Let's make this a year that Ma n Pa can be proud of.

Forcing oneself to be deliberate at each moment is the only way to get things done...
It sucks and you're a lot less likely to find yourself smoking hash on Paul Mitchell's rail car. |

| Do you mean to say that I won't make it if I spend too much time doing hard drugs and styling my hair? You're probably right on with that one, buddy. Focus can be pulled not only on a camera but on the path of life as well. |

| Not at all my point. Its a balance. The truly deliberate move from one goal to another. They either succeed or fail, but are sad in either case. They are sad to fail, or sad to succeed-- because success means seeking another goal. Prudence perhaps? Find the balance of focus and enjoying the ride on Paul Mitchell's rail car. |
