busy crazy
I have had a very busy day that, finally, at 1.30 AM is winding down.
This morning I spent testing parts of Jane Siberry's new site. Last night I edited one of her records for her, and that will be up on her website eventually. I like Jane - she's really nice. Most "singer songwriters" annoy the hell out of me, but Jane's different - I like her - the clarity of her vision, her compassionate attitude, and tweaky sense of humour. She's also been very kind to me, which in this rampant world of unrelenting greed and stupidity, where so often I find myself getting shafted by people who really don't give a rat's ass about much of anything, is a very welcome thing. She's also got a great voice.
If I wrote songs, I would want her to sing them.
So, that was a bunch of fun work with her, and there is likely to be some more.
Then I scampered off to Orange for a few hours of paying effort, and then ran home to await the arrival of Dee and Deborah. I used to work with D & D at Roche Molecular Systems. They were scientists, I was a graphics flunky. Dee met her husband at my wedding - he was my best man, Raul Vera. They now live in Australia, and have a family, a car, a mortgage and all the other fine accoutrement of modern 21st century existence. Deborah works at Chiron now, and it was a pleasure to have them both over for dinner and a good long chat.
So, in 5 hours I have to be up and driving Elizabeth to school, so I should sign off. Just a note to the future: I need to discuss issues of performance cinema in this forum. I believe I will, so I can get my ideas out into the world.
Woof.
