 I want to congratulate Jonny Pulley, one of my best friends ever, for being accepted into the Sundance Film Festival for his short film ”Move Me“. To celebrate this wonderful news, I present you with a rare and terribly low quality clip of Mr. Sundance performing “Jumper” at Glitterfish’s International Symposium Dinner Talent Show Soiree that was held last spring (before he got famous). Enjoy.

Also, congratulations to Jason Kelley (DP) and Miguel Jimenez (producer). And thank you to Elyse for providing this wonderful video.

Last night I went to Hank and Heather’s holiday extravaganza complete with a white elephant gift exchange and fire pit. The highlights of the night were Jason stealing back his own gift (a Burt Reynolds triple feature DVD) and Hank yelling “don’t step on the hibiscus!” when the boys started roughhousing outside. I walked away with a pretty sweet basket of candy and movie passes which was pretty good considering there was a fart machine, a calendar of babies dressed up as fruit and a Burt Reynolds triple feature in the mix.

I wanted a winter dress for the party, so I chose this blue patterned dress at goodwill and cut it down to my size. I finished it minutes before we had to leave so I didn’t even have time to hem it. Here are two awkward pictures of me wearing it before and after.

I also made pumpkin cheesecake bars, which were lovely. Jason was especially fond of them. They are easy to make and are highly recommended. The recipe can be found here.

Andrea used to work at one of those paint-your-own-pottery places and when projects were left behind, unwanted or just plain ugly, they usually ended up at our house. This little gem is my personal favorite. I think it’s safe to say that Phil and Laura are no longer. Why else would Phil leave this treasure behind?  Whenever I use it, I’m filled with questions. How could such a seemingly perfect relationship go downhill in a matter of days? How could the world’s greatest girlfriend do that to him, that skank? Why did he write “u” like he was using instant messenger? Does Phil really think that pink and red match?

By the time I finish my coffee, I usually come to the conclusion that they were acrobats for the circus and they died together in a freak accident involving the trapeze. This helps me get through the day.
