I wear my imagination around my neck
Last night I went and saw ‘The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus’ and absolutely loved it! Its rare when a movie takes me to a place that is so out of my realm yet brings me to places that I’ve been. I so often live in my imagination and as a child was taught to delve into my psyche and passion and creativity- that it has become such a part of who I am. So to see a movie that brings this all to life in a darkly psychedelic yet beautiful way, not to mention a cast that is stunning- I mean Tom Waits as the devil- chain smoking and making deals with his throaty voice, a voice that husks like the onset of a thunderstorm dark and sensual. I would probably make a deal with him too!
I actually went and saw the movie by myself, which at first wasn’t by choice, but given that I’ve been spending so much time with my friends lately, that it was kind of nice to be on a date with oneself. One of my best friends is leaving for a few months, and as much as I am excited for her to take an adventure I am going to miss her so fucking much- you become so intertwined with the people in your life and then for them to suddenly be gone, its a such a – stop- a “wow- what the fuck do i do now?” But- thats what this beautiful life is- always swirling and changing- like the feathers on the floor, leftover from a crazy party where everyone wore colorful boas.
With love and kisses-
