exactly

I watch a lot of DVD special features and the thing that kills me is when an actor describes his director as someone that knows "exactly what he wants."

To me, this just seems like a redundant compliment. The director is the one that, surprise, directs the film to the minutia of details and ultimately responsible for everything on the film from the titles down to the the film score. Yes, its a collaborative effort 100% but he is the one that artistically guides it.

Therefore, he should know exactly what he wants, its HIS JOB!

need a ride

As I was driving home today, thinking about how some people in Los Angeles just had the knack for driving in Los Angeles, I remembered a fantastic fact. I have a driver's license and a car.

Driving is taken for granted unless you were a girl that learned to drive in her 20s. The decades of being driven around still ring in our minds. Public transporation. Mercy of family & friends. I used to have to get rides to go everywhere. When a friend finally got a car, it was a joyous day not just for him but for all his bestes. I remember Alex driving Nancy & I around all over the greater Los Angeles area, the three of us living in completely different areas, moms dropping someone off at another's just so Alex wouldn't have to make two stops. I owe that guy some gas money I think.

Nowadays it doesn't pain me to give someone a ride because I remember when I didn't have a car and vowed that if I ever had a car, I would help out anyone I could. So if you ever need a ride, don't hesitate to call my cab company. It'll just cost you a good story.

new year new yellow

The yellow frames from Target I got for Christmas, well I wanted more of them. Luckily they were deeply discounted at 2.48 and I got myself two cute yellow ones. Then I moved a mirror around from the entry way and rearranged some stuff at the top of the entertaining expedit and this is what the top of it looks like without Christmas decorations:This blog is focusing a lot on the decorating, I think its because that's my hobby as of late and I can understand it being really boring to some people like how I feel when one of my favorite decorating chicks gets knocked up. They turn into these dull vanilla wafers that only want to talk about the child even when they write about something else you can almost sense the restraint because they really want to use the word baby in the post.

UPDATE: I started a decorating, cooking, and entertaining specific blog: http://evyathome.blogspot.com/ Go live in peace...
