There are some upsides to my world right now. I am eating much better. I cook a lot at home. I’m still walking between 1-4 miles 7 days a week at either Sharon Woods or High Banks Parks. I’ve lost over 30 pounds since June, although I am still very Read more
It feels like there is novacaine in my soul. I have so little emotion about anything. I care about practically nothing. I love my cats. I derive a small amount of pleasure from watching the Daily Show, or reading a good book. Overall though, the passion of my life drained Read more
[img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/oct12/blog.jpg[/img] So another week has come and gone without nary a clue as to how to end my creative drought. I’ve been working on the homestead quite a bit. It has been stifling to have the living room unchanged since the divorce. Coming home and having nothing look or feel Read more
[img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/oct12/blog.jpg[/img] I wanted to mention something a little more uplifting than my last blog. My life is not completely devoid of anything positive, nor am I eyeballing headstones or writing overlong eulogies for my own funeral. Something keeps me going, and in some cases, it can be the simplest things. [img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/oct12/lorenzo.jpg[/img] Read more
So I’m going to try to shoot again soon. Writing is not my problem. It’s the making the movie part that has me a bit gunshy. I think I have developed a higher degree of obsessive compulsive disorder in some areas and have therapeutically resolved it in others. I am Read more
[img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/sept12/blog.jpg[/img] So I did make the time to go see RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK in Imax. It was worth it for the sound alone. They had the audio cranked and the remastered 7.1 audio booming with every sound effect and the John Williams score. Sadly, this movie makes most new Read more
[img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/sept12/blog.jpg[/img] And the days continue. Still no project on deck. Nothing jumping out at me. Not even the slightest twinkling of an urge to make a new movie about anything. This is worse than impotence. At least they have little blue pills for that. There is no magic button or Read more
[img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/sept12/blog.jpg[/img] I feel better. I feel better in every way. I’m still not ready to commit to another project, but at least my health improved, and with it my attitude. Taking advice I initially scoffed at from Sean McHenry of Deep Blue Edit fame, I’m going to start shooting some Read more
[img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/sept12/blog.jpg[/img] Recently I was accused of not accepting blame for anything I do and for enjoying the public spectacle. 3-4 years ago, this was very true. Today, not so much. I loathe going to social events, my blog has been devoid of personal information, and nary a mention of someone Read more
[img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/sept12/blog.jpg[/img] I’ve been working a lot this past week. It feels great compared to the past several months. Paid work is good since my expenses have tripled overnight. I took a week off teaching to handle the extra workload, but miss the classes a lot. Becoming a teacher has been one Read more
[img]http://www.sonnyboo.com/images1/blog/sept12/blog.jpg[/img] So, it looks like my health ain’t gonna be great for a while. My body can’t fight off infections anymore. My white blood cell count is down. Still waiting on results about my kidneys. All this going on after a break up of a 10 year relationship, and I Read more
This blog was published in August, 2012. I have been in a social coma for over 2 years, trying to make myself a better man. Trying to overcome some obvious deficiencies. It just sucks that as I stop doing toxic and self destructive behaviors, the person that I was Read more
