stealing a moment

It’s been so frantic around here that at times I don’t know whether I’m coming or going. B & I have a bit of a deadline with a project that HAS to be finished this week, so it’s been go go go! this entire weekend. I managed to take some time out (if only for a bit) this afternoon when I saw Stewie catching some late Sunday afternoon rays. Afternoon sunlight is so perfect. With the unusually warm Winter weather we’ve been experiencing I could almost be convinced that Summer is waiting impatiently around the corner. It’s a bit of a bummer to have had the weekend sneakily slip by but I’m glad I took some time out to chill with the kitteh, who seems to have it all worked out. He’s pretty clued in. I think that he may have been reading up about going slow.

I keep meaning to post about a friend’s gig that I saw at the Powerhouse a few weeks ago. She’s one third of the band, The Imaginary Parade, who made their debut performance that night and might I add, kicked ass. I was so proud and impressed at how super talented they all are. I also finally got to see Ball Park Music live. I’ve heard so much good stuff about their music and they definitely don’t disappoint. The lead singer has major stage presence. Both bands have stellar futures ahead of them.
today was ok.

I seem to have finally shaken the last remnants of the flu (that had SO overstayed its visit) but I still can’t seem to get into the swing of things. Soon though. Hopefully.
I am however, happily making list after list for our soon-ish trip to Melbourne (Oct, ‘09) + our not-so-soon-ish trip to Poland & South Africa (March/April/May ’11). It’s all very exciting. Planning is half the fun, no?
Interestingness, elsewhere:
→ Ian Whitmore: I like both series in his portfolio (Nowhere & Channels).
→ Eleanor Hardwick: I’ve been following her work for a while. So pretty. Nice to see her profiled in this month’s Frankie.
→ If you missed seeing The Maxx when it originally aired on MTV then you’re in luck! MTV has posted full episodes to its website, allowing viewers to revisit this highly under-rated series once again. I collected all the comics and watched the videos over and over (vhs!) and I never got sick of it. Go have a look. So good.
→ Hand written letters sent to a whole village anonymously. Goodness in hand written format!
→ Feature Shoot’s Friday theme: Birds. Strangely beautiful and sad too.
→ I’ve been having a few discussions lately about the topic of morality (in the media and in daily life) and this movie seems interesting if somewhat confronting. I think I’d like to see it. I’m on a little bit of a JM Coetzee kick after reading Diary of a Bad Year not too long ago. John Malkovich has always scared me a little though.
→ Also this.
See you soon.
