Being in a descructive environment makes for good writing later

Very nice day today. Met some very clandestine folks who don't know me at all but wanted to spend a couple minutes talking to me about [Pause Randy Newman's newish song A Few Words in Defense of Our Country is playing. Right now on Bonnaroo Radio. Me likey. unPause] student filmmakers and documentaries they were doing and are interested in. I actually had a couple of moments of clairvoyant thought and used it to ask 3 good questions and 5 date-type questions.

Nothing gained, nothing ventured. Or did I mean the reverse. It's kinda late and I 'm supposed to be playing video games and watching the Wire Season 1 Disc 2 now before I attribute some late fees. Oh and my mom has cancer.
I haven't told everyone and everybody. I usually don't do that anyways for anything at anytime in my life prior. But at some point, the folks who were going to notice this have already noticed many redflags and the folks who aren't quick on the uptake probably should start guessing by now. How long can you go not seeing someone who is a staple at our church like my mother is without coming to some sort of deadly conclusions?

I take her to the hospital tomorrow. Like I have for, what it seems like, every week and used to be every month. Phone calls and contractors at the house have started to fall in my purview and control. I must drive her after chemo treatments. She is to godawful "tired" to anything but lay in bed and watch The Girls Next Door (fgsfds).
I need some good uplifting comicbooks or just plain good stories to read but money's short and well...money's short. I gotta roll with what I got. Which is great. It's just that I seem to be only satisfied with the collecting and not the using for fun aspects of buying (damn these genes!).

Movie idea: Somehow use the song Blue Collar Man by STYX in a movie. That is all.
Oh and my Dexter with music idea is forming into something cohesive in my brain. Now to ACTUALLY FUCKING WRITE THE THING...THIS WEEK...AFTER SCRUBS...AND BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD MUSICAL EPISODE. THAT WILL TOTALLY HELP.

(Update: Oh I visited The Art Institute of Nashville Art if you couldn't tell, don'tchaknow)
