The Slings & Arrows...
Feb. 13th, 2008 10:15 pmAn interesting day, extra-curricularly (??)
A dear friend has been targeted by a right-wing, anti-green website & has been given a petty, vindictive, sniggering-schoolboy "look at the looney!!" write-up in the "Green Freaks" 'blog section. God knows how they found her & decided she was a threat to capitalism & consumerism, but they take delight in ridiculing her lifestyle, cast misinformed moral aspersions at her job & draw paintroller-sized broadstroke conclusions about her mental capacity & state based on some flight-of-fancy entries in her own 'blog. Because one of her jobs is modelling for life-drawing, they even include a link to some "nude photos!!"... actually mostly drawings, but I suppose when you're a hippie/leftie/queer-bashing racist bigot with all the social skills & physical attraction of a wounded hippopotamus, you have to get your jollies somewhere...
No, I'm not providing a link...
A mixed-bag rehearsal with H&F tonight. Some good conversations early on, then a, mostly, somewhat inspired run-through of the material so far, but even with the spontaneous reappearance of a long-forgotten Daylan piece from the 90s, the magic wasn't quite as spellbinding as I would have liked. Then again, I was told last weekend that I set too-high standards for most things & people, so maybe I should just be grateful for the good work done & be satisfied with any forward motion.
"Happy with what you have to be happy with, you have to be happy with what you have. To be happy with what you have, you have to be happy with what you have to be happy with."
