Making new stuff out of old stuff I dig out of other peoples' garbage, bits of string and aluminim foil, glue, paste, old paint, beads (glass or wood, not plastic), shiny objects, bird-watching, urban hiking, jogging (NOT!), swimming (NOT!), photography, drawing with a lot of colors, cooking once in a while, learning things about myself and my past from people that knew me then, buying books for my grand-daughter, Angela (GOD! How did I GET here?), library hopping, thrift stores (the thriftier the better) traveling (in my HAPPY dreams), long road trips (had a few of those), visiting my kids at their jobs, singing (alone in the shower), dancing (alone in my living room or kitchen), good coffee, old books.
My long lost twin. Myself 35 years ago. My daughter in 10 years. And YOU if you're not 1) drooling 2) a prick 3)trying to find romance 4)illiterate or 5) planning on telling me the "Good News".
Wizard of Oz~The Last Temptation of Christ~Bad Lieutenant~Whatever Happened to Baby Jane~Hush Hush Sweet Charlott~Rear Window~North By Northwest~Psycho~The Birds~10,000 leagues Under the Sea~ Journey to the Center of the Earth~Skidoo~8 Mile Road~Drop Dead Fred~Willie Wonka (original version) to name just a very few I remember of the thousands of movies I've seen.
Fred and Wilma Flintstone (back when Fred was making a little extra cartoon money doing Winston cigarette ads on the side), Lucy and Ricky Ricardo were my occassional surrogate parents. The Brady Bunch, The Partridge Family, Gilligan and Skipper, Witchie-Poo, Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear and all their friends at Hannah/Barbera, Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Foghorn Leghorn and all their friends at Warner Brothers - all of them in my living room every day for years, supplying me with the undivided attention I so craved yet rarely received over the blare of canned laughter and my mother doing dishes far off in kitchen land. Since then TV has changed a lot and I've changed a lot too and I just don't have any real favorite shows anymore. But if the TV is on and I'm there and one of these shows comes on, I will watch Antiques Road Show~NOVA~This Old House~Hometime~CSI (LasVegas)~Jeopardy~LOST~House. I will NOT watch, I REFUSE to watch Survivor~Desire~America's Top Model~The Biggest Loser~Deal or No Deal~Saturday morning Japanimation cartoon crap.
Dictionaries, atlases, any sort of reference book. I collect them. They are heavy and difficult to move but I love them. Certified Member of the P.S. 170 Look It Up Club since 1968. WE NEVER GUESS! WE LOOK IT UP!
