Secondlina's Panels

Oh, Labyrinth was a great film. It had Connelly playing a cosplayer, David Bowie displaying all his... Talents. And muppets. Who doesn't love muppets? The Dump scene (Video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8B56YRizoTc)  always stuck me as a kid as this really horrible, stressful and confusing place where stuff was just pushed on you to make you forget about what was important. The scene was made even more powerful by the fact that these objects are actually yours.

So I guess it's a pretty good metaphor for the opposite of limbo.

This weekend, my goal is to make a list. I'm actually starting to loose tract of what I have to do. So i'm going to make a massively detailed list and stick it to my wall. Get organized, Isa! I actually think my whole "confusion at what I need to do" is something that is currently making me feel more tired then I should be. A little bit of organization can go a long way in putting your thoughts and your energy in order.

In other news, Omer Deserres, stop failing! Omer Deserres is the main chain of artstores in Québec. However, they fail at a lot of things, and they make me miss the Wallack's stores from Ontario. Fiding craft things over there? No problem. However, look for actually art materials? Good luck. I think I may need to find smaller art stores or a nice cheap art website to order from. Because my relationship with Omer is becoming ridiculous. You never give me what I want. I think we may need to part ways.

Finally, i'm trying to stay optimistic this week. It's hard. It's like humans are dead set on proving to me that they are jerks. 

A friend of mine has recently lost her husband in a car accident (and by recently, I mean last week). She's not doing okay. Not by a long shot. she's also pregnant with their child to boot. The girl is currently in a huge moral debate. Keep the kid, because she loves it and her departed husband and be a single-parent at the age of 26 or take the second option. And you know what the best part is? The husband's parents are encouraging her to abort. You'd think they would want the kid. But no, they say anything keeping her part of their family is just a mistake. They just outright hate her. It angers me to no end. I can't believe how cruel people can be.

Thankfully, her family and friends are kind.

But really, what a bunch of a-holes.
