Compliments

Do you compliment people? I don't mean... "nice shirt!" that's not complimenting someone... It's complimenting some "thing". I don't think we as friends, spouses, children, parents, bosses or subordinants compliment enough. I received some nice compliments in the past week. "You can see art in anything. "You have a great bedside manor!" Each compliment was like adding fuel to the fire!! David

ER visit

Van had to go to the ER yesterday morning. More of the same stuff that has been going on for the past two years but a little worse or different yesterday. Fever is what led to us going. her 5th CT scan (no bueno)... showed a little colitis. So beef up the Asacol dose, restart the Vancomycin... schedule a 5th colonoscopy... (are you serious!? yes, i'm serious.). She's doing okay at this point. We're determined to stay on top of this so that things don't get worse necessitating a hospital stay. Being in the hospital is fairly miserable, especially when you feel miserable. When will all of this stop?!!!! Please God, hasn't she had enough?! dngilb

a movie.

So, I'm trying to make a movie. If you remember I've made one short film which was screened in the Dead Center Film Festival... it was a ridiculous film "about class struggle and entitlement"... well, actually it was a film about a guy who drinks lots of Dr. Thunder and pees out a chicken carcass, entitled "dangers of a caffeine high"... Weird huh?! I don't know why I like to make bizarre films, but I guess I do. What does that say about me as a person? So this new film is going to be significantly longer than "dangers of a caffeine high". I think this new film entitled "A documentary about itself, with no title, and that's the title" is probably going to be about 30 minutes long. It too is going to be weird. I'm not going to say it'll be funny, but more like peculiar. So is it possible to make a documentary about itself? Initially I thought it would just look like a weird feedback loop... How can you document a story
