Selling Land

Here is where I spend a lot of my time - selling land. Actually - land with houses and townhouses on top.

Our website is new but my business partner, Tacha, and I have been working on the project since December 2003! Inman Park Village.

Brick Watching

Last night I watched Brick. It was a really good flick.
ENJOYMENT RATING: 4 barks

How could I have missed this one? Great story and I was only slightly annoyed once when my dog needed to be let out and I had to pause the action. She's cute so it didn't detract too much. It is really a great modern translation of the film noir. I am looking forward to future movies by Rian Johnson - this is his first movie and according to imbd he has another one currently in production. I am not going to say too much in the event that you haven't seen the movie yet and I HATE spoilers. I am just saying - give it a chance - put it in your que. Thanks to Corporal for the recommendation - you can look for your gift toaster to arrive in 6 to 7 years.

Chinese New Year's Resolutions

In celebration of the Chinese New Year, I am adding a few resolutions to my year.

1. Read more books. I love books and used to consider myself an avid reader but the last few years, it just hasn't been happening. I pledge to complete "Middlesex" by mid March. I won't tell you when I started it; it's sad. Then I am going to read more books! Maybe even one a month!

2. Watch more movies. This I added to the CNY's resolution list to justify to my addiction to Netflicks. They are not paying me for that plug but they should. About $25/month would be good. My movie quest has been fueled by reading the Corporal's entries about his favorite movies. I realized there are several on his favorite list that I have never seen. Embarrassing really. You can check out the Corporal's movie list yourself on the Babiesmitbearden Blog. It is south of the yellow & brown food.

I am thrilled to announce that tonight I will be watching my first movie from the Corporal's list. Tonight's selection will be "Brick". I am beside myself with anticipation...waiting for the night to roll in and work day to be done!

3. Take more pictures. In this digital age it seems silly not re-ignite this lil' hobby. And, Dad, this time there won't be rolls of film of chain link fences, and I won't drop butter in the camera either.

Enough is Enough is Enough

I am so damn tired of the news being about celebrities who wear bikini tops to clubs or don't wear underwear or who drink too much or who shave their heads or date the wrong guy. Is this news? I think not.

I had fun in my teens & 20's and even did some of the above things myself. I thought that was the whole point of being young. I was just poor and a non-celebrity so no one caught my stupidity - and fun - on tape.

Really - let them be. They'll get it together. That is what the 30's are for after all.

Good Times

Last night was a great night.

I played some long form improv at the Jackpie Theatre with my dudes - Duke Lives Under the Bus (Bill Seybolt, Adam Lowe, Duke Corey and me).

My friends - the HOT POSSE - showed up to show me some love. After the show we ate cake and laughed. Good times!
