how to disappear

playing on itunes right now: how to disappear completely.

thom yorke said in one interview that this song is his favorite of all they've done. it was also used in the movie, "life as a house," and came as a surprise to me when i watched the movie recently. (my husband, on hearing me exclaim about a radiohead song in the movie, threw up his hands and said, "of course!")

i tried to work on gawain, my musician character, but he's not ready or i'm not ready yet. i'm still in the ok:novel story, my head is in that. i have a couple of people reading it for feedback, and i feel poised, waiting to hear what suggestions and comments they have, and what i still need to do for it. so i'm in a holding pattern.

but - going to new york in two days. and what will happen, of course, is that i will have to write a new york scene. either in ok:novel or in the gawain novel. in fact, maybe that will jump start gawain! yeah.....that's what i will do, start out in nyc. cool.

over on the right, that painting, is by my husband, richard sedivy. his show with 15 of these paintings opens on january 13, at hunsaker/scheslinger fine art, in bergamot station, santa monica. exquisite and evocative paintings. you must see them in person, there are details that don't show up in a photo.
