sorry for the negative-orama there below. I make no apologies I just am so mad at the manipulation of the media sometimes. Its all so unbelievably stupid.

Anyhoo... so... I work in this office and one of the things that I sometimes get to do is a little property management (not alot because I honestly don't think that some of the people in my office think I am smart enough to handle it)... well one of a property's tenants called today and was inquiring about his lease and what is going to be done with his building and will my boss and his partner in the property be interested in extending the lease. To which I said I can't imagine why not, which is completely sooooo unbelievably NOT my place. But anyways. The guy runs an art co-op.

The Other Side Arts. I so seriously heart this place so much. Everything about it just oozes amazing things. This guy looked at what was this crappy old dilapidated building (in my eyes, I was freaked just walking in there to be honest before it became what it is now) across the street from Paris on the Platte and has made it into this really cool thing. I keep telling him that I will come down and learn how to use the dark room, I will take the tshirt making class, I will paint something, I will teach a kids class in painting. But NOOOO I haven't done squat. If you are in Denver, go. Bring your kids. Its all about the family and kids and community. So freakin' cool.

I constantly kvetch about getting out and doing things and here I sit in my house doing nothing about it at all. This is a new year right? Well. I am stepping up to the plate. I am changing things about myself. Baby steps mind you, but I am changing things.

I didn't go to the Bug tonite. I wanted to but got caught up watching a documentary that honestly had me in complete tears and a pile of emotional goo. So I spent most of the rest of the night handwriting notes to friends and getting mail ready to send out.

Talked to my Mom, man is she a lovely woman. I am lucky. So lucky. She said I need to get out more too. And she is right. Again.
