On the Verge
Today we worked on some final revisions to the screenplay for Revolver. The script has been finished for quite some time, but it’s going through final touch ups and things like that. I like how things are shaping up for it. And re-reading it again...it still hits me. I hope that when it is turned into a feature length film, it will hit you, too.
So the game plan is....Revolver (the promotional trailer) is entering the 5th Annual Golden Trailer Awards which will take place in May in LA. I feel on the verge of .... something good....mysterious.... wonderful…and madness.
From there, I just cross my fingers and shut my eyes tightly and wish and wish and wish....
I hope it finds itself in the right hands...
Here's to hard work, wishing, dreaming and lady luck.
You have no idea how much I want to share it with you...wrap my arms around you and bring you into my world...
The time is now. Pack your bags...

Help is on the Way
I apologize that I haven't posted much in my journal lately. For those of you who don't already know...I was attacked in the face by a very angry rottweiler. Everything is going to be fine...but that's my excuse for not writing..."the dog ate my homework" if you will....
I do promise to be on my best behavior and post regularly from here on out. For a few weeks there, I did nothing but slather cocoa butter on wounds and take painkillers. Not very exciting journal writing. Me drooling on the couch. I didn't want to do that to me. Let alone do that to you.
So I'm temping at this new place...and you know how I love to daydream. The message on the pic is on the elevator panel. I was drawn to it immediately. One day the light will go on and when the doors open again I will step out into the most lovely day I've seen...
And I won't even question why the 16th floor no longer is an office space... There will be an open road…and a car waiting for me to get in. In the back will be my red Chinese suitcase…filled with my favorite cherry heels, my poloroid camera and a few favorite dresses…with plenty of room for postcards bought at five and dime stores, and matchbooks I can steal from the roadside motels…And Revolver will be in the making…on a sunshiny day like the ones that I so love in the park (you know the ones I mean…)
And we didn’t need a map to get there, because one doesn’t exist.
You just have to know the way.
On the day that help arrives….

Lost Picture and Blue Eyeshadow
First of all...thank you so much for writing sweet letters about Greta. It made me happy...she thanks you and so do I.
This was me when I was a traveling gypsy....
My Mom dug this old picture up when she read World Domination and Go-Go Boots (my first dangerdiary entry), so that I could share this beautiful weirdness with the world. I was so happy she found it because I thought it was lost forever. THANK YOU MOM...for digging through mountains of pics to find this gem! It was nice to see my beloved white side zip go-go boots again...! I was five in this picture.
And crazy.
Nothing has changed but my age (and well...I wouldn't match a turban with a silk dress and white boots AND a backgamon board. That lies in the freedom of being five.)
Enjoy the lunancy.
PS....it is my Grandma Hergenhan's birthday today...she was a wild and beautiful spirit who sang me songs, read me faerie tales, made me believe that magical things exist AND loved blue eyeshadow. So live your day happy and magical, celebrate EVERYTHING and wear a little bit of baby blue eyeshadow for Grandma...

Until We Meet Again, Little One.....
My best friend and beloved animal companion, Greta, passed on to the lush gardens in the sky suddenly on December 23. When the little Gret ran into my life years ago, scooping her up into my arms and taking her with me was the best decision I have ever made in my life. Gret taught me the true meaning of friendship. Always cuddling, always loving, always protecting. We never needed words because we spoke to each other with our hearts.
At this time of grief, I look back on all the many, many wonderful times we had together on earth...and look forward to meeting her one day in the most beautiful green gardens I've ever seen. I know she will be waiting for me...lounging in the most perfect ball of sunshine, wagging her little tail. The meaning of bliss will be to someday hold in my arms again my truest friend.
And I am sure...that if you look at me when the light falls just right, and you squint your eyes a bit...you will see the little black doggie with the floppy ears standing beside me always. Nothing will ever be able to separate us...
I shall carry her in my heart everyday....my beautiful little girl....with love forever....
