From xmas 06 |
If you know me, you know I have a hefty appreciation for old movies. If you know my family, you know we love musicals. And one family favorite musical is "White Christmas", the 1954 classic with Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye.
in vt for vacation. what shall i do? massage? river swim? art class? perhaps theater in a barn? sigh. must. let. go. of. computer.
tomorrow is my first official day on the job. yikes!!
i love that the main characters sing a hokey Journey medley. And then their evil competing glee club performs the only rock ballad that could POSSIBLY be more ludicrously melodramatic: bohemian rhapsody by queen. all while a glee member is simultaneously giving birth. really. hilarious.
i have these moments every month or so when the world and its opportunities feel so expansive that it almost hurts - so many directions to go, possible outcomes for every action and interaction. i can barely keep up. and it hurts to have to choose just one. i end up feeling paralyzed by the possibility, and anxious and scared about the choosing.
