Finally got around to making a heart (that looked like a heart) and taking a picture of the final result.

My grandpa passed away today from cancer. I wanted to do a little something for him.

I'll miss you, grandpa, I hope you're happy and at peace. Thank you for everything you've done for us, for giving me my love for horses, which helped me so much growing up, for teaching me to drive cars, tractors, and stick, for giving me places to run wild and explore, for always being so patient and caring. I love you so much.  

For KarizzMarie's adorable tiny story.

I only changed the sun to 'she' and not 'he' because for me (and in my language), the sun is female :)

Aww i feel so sorry for the poor sun now D: *cries*

I just saw that there are still pencil lines visible, i editet this on my laptop and it seems the contrast on my laptop is very bright D: *fail*

This is one of those things where I had no idea what I was doing with it, or where it would end up...and this is what it is.

It's a stream of consciousness. Pretty much any time I attempt to free write anything that comes to mind, it ends up in the same direction: My fear of failing in the film world, running out of time, being old etc. I don't know why I always go there.

It reads:

"Always waiting for something

For the next day off

For this job to end

For the next big break

For the next good news

For life to begin

And we forget

That our clocks never stopped

They always kept on ticking

Even if you hated where you were at

Even if you were counting down the days

The trail gets shorter and shorter with each passing moment

Even if you stand still

The clock continues ticking.

Realizations that I’m living in the past

And always talking about the future

While missing right now

All I have is time

Everyone’s graduating college

All I have is time

They’re starting their families

All I have is time

They’re having their children

All I have is time

And my biggest fear is still being here

When the “have” turns to “had”

Time.

Sometimes I feel like I’m running out

But then I remember

That today was going to come either way

And there are no rules to this life

No set itineraries

No promises, or guarantees

This is our time

Spend it how, and in every way

You want.

Because it won’t last for ever.

I will make it in to film."

This one especially is inspired by MattConleys tumblr post:http://mattconley.tumblr.com/post/2568053665/time-is-a-funny-thing-time-is-a-very-peculiar

Although I was inspired by a lot of different things while making this, that quote haunts me. And a new earth was on my iPod on repeat while making this as well. I have the same format as Wirrows video because of it, and because crispyfuller said that the words are relatable, so instead of VO'ing it, I thought it'd be better to read it how you want.

Here's a time lapse of a purple sunrise over Clearlake, CA.  I'm sure someone could use it.

a little more info on the birthday day collab

(#1a with an emphasis on the Happy Birthday - please contribute anything you make to wish Joe a Merry Burfmas this year. I'd rather people RECord something new for the occasion rather than add an existing RECord, but in the spirit of giving if that is all you can give right now, it is more than welcome)

#1 - contribute ANYTHING! Whatever comes to mind, whatever comes to heart. It's about wishing our RegularJOE a Happy Birthday

#2 - some of us have talked about RECording video messages to express what hitRECord means to us, how it has touched our lives and, in turn, how Joe has touched our lives. Not everyone has a camera (I just got this webcam - first video ever! tee hee). PLEASE STILL CONTRIBUTE. It doesn't HAVE to be a video. It's just something we have been throwing around. I want everyone to contribute. "Cards," collages, anything to wish the happiest of birthdays is welcome.

this little guy slammed into our livingroom window...so i sat with him to ward off our cats until he recovered - and that's why he let me take his picture from inches away. :-)
