1 + 1 = 2 More than Just You

Hello again, 11.  How ya doin' baby girl?  Let me say you're looking mighty different under a bright, new light.  You're gettin' finer and finer each year.  It took you a minute to find your stride, but I think you're handling your own quite well.  You need to do what you need to do to get things done and fortunately, you ain't alone here. 

I know you got a lot on your mind especially with the wake up call that you and many others received less than a week ago.  But you gotta great team by your side.  I saw how far your jaws dropped when they showed up.  I know it's been a long time coming since you saw that kinda response, but it's here now so shake off the shock and get on with it.  You ain't the only one joining this fight and it's nice to see you share the work load.

I know you've received plenty more surprises, not only from others but outta you too.  Trying not to do everything when you know for sure you can't is a start.  Someone else took the lead and look, things are moving forward fast and that's what we need right now.  But we'll save the serious post for next time.  For the sake of this moment, let's focus on the positive, shall we? 

Loving your career path, aren't you?  Damn, that's a first since your college paper!  Funny how you found this gig just like that gig, huh?  You simply took a shot at a potential referral that someone said you'd be good at and you know what?  Word of mouth is a powerful thing.  Pretty damn good.  So good in fact that you felt safe enough to continue stepping outside of your comfort zone. 

Asking for help.  Biting your lip when you coulda opened your mouth so your mood swings won't get in the way.  That alone musta been agony!  Trying that Insanity hurt like hell, but you showed up the next day didn't you?  Good girl.  You coulda drove, but you walked instead and now it ain't even hard to get anywhere anymore now is it?  Oh and spending a good chunk of that hard-earned money on a new ride ain't so bad either.  One that you call, "Ours" and actually feel like it's worth sharing. Good thing you took care of  the black and found your way back to gray.  Guess you couldn't step out too far yet, now could ya?  Baby steps, sweetie.  You move better when you take your time, but you can act quickly when necessary.  Going on 6 days now.  Ready. Set. Go.

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.

Love Is Not Blind

"Colorblind" - Counting Crows I originally had a Dave Matthews Band song in my head, but like always I'm bending the rules a little bit and going with what's in my heart. After all, I couldn't follow my last blog with something you didn't like, could I? That just wouldn't fit and this seems to do just that. This song reminds me of the movie Cruel Intentions . It's hard not to think of it. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe's chemistry was so strong, especially in their steamy love scene with this song playing in the background, that any other memory pales in comparison. I always thought the lyrics were so simple and romantic, but it became even clearer here. There was no doubt about it. I knew instantly that they were a real life couple even before they announced it. Love is obvious. Acting can never really be this good unless two people have genuine feelings for each. Look at Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams in The Notebook and Angelina Jolie ...

UnBreakable Me

"Like A G6 & Bass Down Low" - Far East Movement, The Cataracs, & Dev I promised every week at the least. For Me. This is me keeping my promise. For Me. Cuz it's what I've been doing. For Me. And it's what I'll always do. For Me. Lyrics: If you wanna get with me There's some things you gotta know I like my beats fast And my bass down low (Drop it to the floor) Ba-ba-bass, bass, bass down low (to the floor) Bass, bass, bass down low (Drop it to the floor) I, I, I like my beats fast (to the floor) And my bass down low (to the floor) Bass, bass down low (Drop it to the floor) Bass, bass, bass down low (to the floor) I, I, I like my beats fast (Drop it to the floor) And my bass down low (to the floor) Popping bottles in the ice, like a blizzard When we drink we do it right gettin slizzard Sippin sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6 Now I'm feeling so fly like a G6 (808) Like a G6, Like a G6 Now I'm feeling so fly like a G6 Like a G6, Like a G6 Now I...
