it's not over yet but I have time to breath now...
I screwed Lee Daniel who photographed Slackers and Dazed and Confused and Before Sunrise and the like...
I stared into the glasses of Guy Piccioto of Fugazi...
I was this close to yelling at an old man...
I am a gimp...
I giggled in the foyer with two gay boys while a heartbreaking movie about Rowanda played inside...
It was sunny and warm one day and it snowed the next...
I betrayed archiving...
I fucked up, I messed up, I didn't see ANY movies but lived the joy of the whole crazy weekend through other people.
I came to town to find out my print traffic job turned into print traffic/tech manager. I turned town the tech mangement job in October. Oh well. C'est la vie. I didn't really end up doing much tech management anyway. It was more like micro managing David's mangement. Because of this some projection really screwed up. The one that was entiring my fault was Be Here to Love Me - about Townes Van Sya-uh-something. Both the director and cinematographer Lee Daniel were there. FOr 15 min. their wide screen film was shown without the widescreen - so everyone was squished and elongated. Not that we did'nt notice right off... it just took 15 min to get the managers key to get the manual, to not push the right buttons... I REALLY SCREWED the two most important people in that room with my lack of knowledge...
Guy P. was there because he produced Jem Cohen's new Chain. I had to deliver the tape back to him. Roommate Christie was just chatting him up like he was her best friend. I kept thinking Patti Kim would like to be me in this moment. Me, I would have prefered to have handed the tape to Ian MacKay... but that's just the punk rock in me...
Every so often my arthritic knee acts up. Usually during moves - going up and down steps so much. Well I have a particularly bad case right now. Maybe because the steps to the Missouri Theatre are like fanominal... Totally limping along. Everyone was asking me if I was ok - it was really embarrassing...
Everyone also asks me how long I'm staying and I have to say I don't know... Unlike in November I have no plans laid out infront of me. All's for sure is I have no job, no home, no love life... (hm. sorry. riding the line of "emotions" here - something I said I wasn't going to put in here...)
