Heels and Achievements...

I love a sense of achievement. Achievement 1) I decided I was going to blog, TODAY, and, after tweeting this outrageous goal, (and therefore making myself accountable to the whole world of people that don't know I exist, let alone read my tweets, or go anywhere near this blog), here I am, tap-tapping at the keyboard, and shortly, or not so shortly as the case may be, those high-flying dreams of having a three post blog will be mine. I never denied being melodramatic.


Achievement 2) to make a start at getting pictures on this here page o' mine. Very almost there.

 

And the actual subject of this post... my recent goal 3) to become more accomplished in heel-wearing. Yes, a noble aim I'm sure you'll agree. So, here we are, many stilletto marks in the lino later. An updated blog, a picture, and hope for my one lone pair of heels to see daylight more often.

The immiscible- ideas and sleep.

Well, it's one of those nights... one where ideas spin and dance, and appear much more tantalizing and sparkling than they probably will in the cold light of morning. But might as well relish it and write it, instead of resenting the fact that I'm not asleep.

Last night, age ago that it feels, we watched Tim Burton's "Big Fish". Connie like. I know I'm rather partial to his stuff, but that I'm unfamiliar with far too much of it, so I've resolved to amend this. (Today I actually went so far as to watch the trailer for Sweeney Todd, and was surprised to discover that I am willing to sit through the gore, it looks SO worth it :D.) There's an unpenned list in me, of films that totally inspire me... just give me 'get up 'n go'... to go create....

And tonight, as I sat, boogly-eyed, watching the BAFTAs, it got itself on that list... 

(... though admittedly not just a film, but I think it counts :s!)

Tonight I fancy myself a Film-Maker, a Cameraman, a Cinematographer, a Director, an Actress, a Singer, a Dancer, a West End Leading Lady, a Choreographer, a Makeup Artist, a Set Designer, a Costume Designer, a Fashion Designer, an Animator, a Story Teller/Spinner, a Traveller, an Art Student, an Illustrator, a Sew-er not a sewer... and on that bizarre note, it can be an end.

Blogging!

So, I've decided to start blogging! This radical notion has come about because the idea of having my own space to spill a few of the thoughts in this little head holds some appeal, and practically, because I'm pretty near convinced that I type quicker than I write. Also, I'm thinking that blogging, where other people are able to read it, may encourage me towards clarity in my ramblings that I might not attain otherwise... live in hope anyway! That said, I don't really have great expectations of an audience... self-centred though it may be, I just want to write, and if anyone's interested in what I churn out, then that's just a bonus to me!
There we go, first post!
