Yay for me.

It's my birthday, dear readers. Everybody loves having a birthday - at least I do. My policy is to engage in a day of full-on hedonism on my birthday. So far I've had two restaurant meals and anticipate a third within the hour. I paid a nice Vietnamese woman to rub my body with soft hands and warm rocks this morning. I only read the summaries at the end of the chapters of 1 of the 2 books on motivation theory that I'm supposed to read for tomorrow. I read the preface of the second. So far, this class has yet to have an impact on my motivation orientation.

Last night Bev and I caught the Instant Films 21 screening. You gotta stream it!!! Or at least some of them. On Friday night 7 screenwriters each drew a noun and an adjective (e.g., legal/toast; annual, tequila) at random. On Saturday morning they drew the name of a director and a 3- 4 actor cast. The shorts were produced over the weekend and screened last night. The result -- magnificent!
