As my title suggests although I"m here at work I'm slowly transforming, or rather, embarking on a journey that will take me away from all this crap. They can tell me what to do around here, but they can't tell me what to think. And I'm thinking right now that Monday's suck. Who's not here, who's leaving early, who's got two kids running around, who's on the internet in the empty office when they're not supposed to be. It's a circus, and no I'm not the ringleader, I'm the dwarf behind the curtain going "gabba gabba hey, something's not right here."
So this past weekend went to the Met. Checked out the exhibit on Occult Photography. It wasn't that good. Some of the pictures were spooky, but it was mainly parlor tricks. Double exposures, trick photography, purposeful under and over exposures to make things like cloth seem like mysterious ectoplasm emanating from some woman's gash.
However, I then walked over to an exhibit on Prague. Excellent, awesome, why are you reading this go check it out. Over 200 pieces, a lot of which have never been exhibited before. Lots of Bibles, paintings, carvings. Apparently in Bohemia they were into religious icons and the such, one such highlight was the piece of the table cloth from the last supper given to Charles IV by Pope Urban.
Well that was pretty much, just glade we're getting a break from the rain, but then again it's supposed to rain all this week.
Remember....
"A good friend will come and bail you out of jail...but a TRUE friend will be sitting next to you saying, 'Damn...that was fun.' "
