Pirate Prep & Party Down The Drain

So, I didn't go to work yesterday. I spent the whole day doing prep, and makeup, and it was SOOOOOOOOO hot. The weather report changed several times, then said we were clear. I even checked the satellite radar myself.

It was not only Free Movie Night at South Field (Now Union Point) but, it was a pirate themed party. they had an ice cream truck, a hot dog truck, the the movie was The Goonies! There was also suppose to be prizes!











So, there I was, getting all dolled up, and decked out...

 We even got this awesome stuff!
Pirate's Booty!
And, the kid came along too! 

Everything seemed to be going just right...






























Then, a friggin' storm rolled in! 


Literally, ON THE DOT, when the movie was about to start, they canceled the WHOLE THING!

The storm was insane, and floods were everywhere!

NOT HAPPY ABOUT THAT!

The Readiness Is All (Hamlet)


There’s a special providence in the fall of a sparrow.
If it be now, ’tis not to come. 

If it be not to come, it will be now. 
If it be not now, yet it will come
—the readiness is all.

 Hamlet  - William Shakespeare

Poem: The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost



The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I —
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference

New Sakura Design For Spring!

Well, here's my newest design for this blog! 

Kinda ended up looking all rainbow-spiffy completely by accident! I like it! 



Check out the old school cheesy GIF banner I did! That's about as good as I can get it with my limited resources... But, I'm kinda into the whole Zen of The 'Persian Flaw' sorta thing, anyway...

The Hokey Pokey by Jeff Brechlin in the Style of William Shakespeare (meme)

The Hokey Pokey by Jeff Brechlin in the Style of William Shakespeare

This poem of sorts be from the Washington Post Style Invitational contest which asked their readers to submit "instructions" for something (anything), yet to be written in the style o' a famous person.
The winning entry was the following: The Hokey Pokey (as written by William Shakespeare).


O proud left foot, that ventures quick within
Then soon upon a backward journey lithe.
Anon, once more the gesture, then begin:
Command sinistral pedestal to writhe.
Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke,
A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl.
To spin! A wilde release from Heavens yoke.
Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl.
The Hoke, the poke — banish now thy doubt
Verily, I say, 'tis what it's all about.
        — by "William Shakespeare"

Disclaimer: Hopefully, to the best of my current knowledge I've cited & credited the sources of these. If there are any inaccuracies, please comment them below.
Despite the popular meme trends of the Hokey Pokey Shakespeare meme of this poem, to my knowledge this was NOT written by William Shakespeare, but Jeff Brechlin for a contest in the Washington Post. 
If I have reported this incorrectly, I apologize. To my knowledge/research this seems to be the case.
I believe firmly in citing & crediting where it is due, and have not intentionally tried to commit any sort of wrong doing, nor ill will of either party mentioned. 
I merely liked the witty, quirky, creativity of the composition, and wished to share it.

Wuxia Inspired Preview

Chinese New year is coming up, so I did a Wuxia inspired photoshoot today.

I'm mentally & physically exhausted. I also did 3 conferences at the same time on speakerphone.
 I also made coffee, and soup at the beginning & end.

When I was done shooting, I still had a call going which went until way after 3PM, but I laid on my my bed with my eyes closed.










I will post some to my Boho BlackUniGryphon Blog, and the Pirate stuff here.
