MoonMongering....1.23.08

******************************************
It is so beautiful out.....There is a beautiful Moon...it is sitting up there looking so inviting....and there is this lovely bit a wispy veil that keeps floating across...So I laid on my bed this eve and looked out the window....I have this amazing window....(I decorated it after I took 6-6's tree down).I hung the Handmade Beaded Ice Sickle Ornaments on a Silver Ribbon and White Christmas Lights and I made lovely Snow Flakes from orgami paper that are painted with glitter and shimmery paint. But the best part in the winter is that the Moon sits right in the Middle. ( In the summer it is a Treehouse Window with leaves abound). I had an amazing day with my son, the kind of day where we really really talked...about all kinds of things that Matter : from Unexpected Death of a young actor, to Making Really Wonderful movies ( he wants to be a director), and music ( why disco sucks), and WHY he wishes he could Vote in the Next Election ( which he can't- he is too young..)

We watched SpidermanIII, and we talked about watching it be filmed. In 2006 It was filmed in Downtown Cleveland, at the time we lived in Downtown Cleveland, and it was filmed ON OUR STREET. It was very exciting, and we used to go get Starbucks snacks, and hit the curbs, and watch as they set up scenes and fix up the sets and FILM. It was very exciting in kind of a slow methodical way, but as 6-6 wants to make Movies it was a helluva learning experience....He loved it in a quiet critical way. We moved from downtown a year ago, because our Loft Buiding got Foreclosed, we were very lucky to find another home. But we do both miss the Loft...and we loved seeing our old Street all gussied up for the Film.

Today we ate too much popcorn and drank too much Diet Pepsi.....and we laughed as we looked at our old Street. Which was the best Medicine, the laughter or the Moon. I may never know....I don't think I need to know.....(The Moon knows it is the Boy with the Blue Eyes that makes me laugh...and warms my heart.)
