Planning my Thelma and Louise |
|
Hello California! |
|
| |
It has happened - Dramatic and sudden.
Change.
I am off to California in the not too distant
future. Off like a dirty sock!
My heartbreak is finally over, I have learned many things about America,
about the South, about the goodness of some people. I have
experienced kindness from strangers, love and support from many friends and
acquaintances. And of course, my mentor, Lynne without whom my
creative insanity would've crumbled my biscuits completely.
I have favorite shops and places I go to where
the workers are familiar with my consumer habits.

Impressions of Tennessee |
|
Beautiful in the spring & summer |
|
Worth a visit |
|
Untidy |
|
Family & male orientated |
|
Lots to explore |
|
Growing too fast |
|
Closed to foreigners |
|
Precious, because it holds my friends |
|
Should keep me - I'm well worth it |
| |
I have had my heart broken, my dreams reshaped
and a new understanding emerge with slightly scorched wingtips. I am almost
three years older, a lot wiser, somewhat tougher and ready to tackle the
hard and glittering world of Los Angeles. I have a friend to go to. This
makes all the difference in the world. I must be stone mad: I'm in the middle of
my life (maybe), a stranger in a strange land, a rebellious woman without
pause or apology - only cause and analogy.
I leave my small southern past behind in
Tennessee, my great pain and wonderful friends.
It's California, baby! Bag lady or Malibu? Who
knows? Adventure is a-calling!

My Plan |
| to begin
a TV channel |
| to
finally be able to buy a pro-digital video camera |
| to own
my own satellite and rent out the transponder space |
|
to have a decent jar of beluga
caviar someday soon |
I am being driven out
of Tennessee by lack of opportunity, past heartache and the unquenchable
desire to get back into doing what I enjoy most:
television and film. I have
such good talents which need to see the light of the American day |

|
Enjoy your visit - and never, ever daydream without the proper
travel authorization in triplicate and copies for your files |

This has got to be
the most magnificent dog in the American history of Dobermans. I am
proud to say that I had a positive influence on her life when she was younger.
She has a good life and is well loved. I still miss her. (Nasty divorce and
all that sort of thing...) |
|
She must be mad
- driving to California with three cats, a bicycle a teeny weeny
bit of money. She is brave, foolish and undaunted, if a tad dented

I received a delightful calendar from the Egg Board of America. Thanks,
egg people. |

Ode to the Egg:
O Eggie, O Eggie, none better than the Eggie!
From bum of chicken to plate of prince,
personable, satisfying, uncomplaining and nice to eat
Eggs grow leggs - eventually - and run off to
greener pastures
How interesting is the Egg!

Alternative Life |
My parents called yesterday from South Africa. I was extremely
touched by my father saying that I am one of the most courageous women he has
ever known to not only move countries without any resources on the other side
but all the things I have achieved and undertaken in life. I get a
gold star for that one. I think
the family must miss me a little back home because they have never said anything
so supportive before. My dad is having spinal surgery tomorrow and I am
concerned. Africa is so far away and who the hell wants to fly on Jihad Airways?
- certainly not me. I can only put my fingers together, do the "ommmmmm"
thingey and wait... |

Goodbye my lost love. It is finally over. The castle crumbled, the magic became dust.
I waited.
I have to go. Life
is calling.
