love is touching souls

this morning i awoke to a text from kourtni lind informing me that erica sobol would be subbing a class at the edge today! kami rachel and i hopped out of bed-it was a stretch to find clean dance clothes- a reminder to do laundry this evening.

anyways- the bus was extremely late: there and back- and it was partly overcast in hollywood


drip drops underneath the golden arches.

however, if the bus would not have been delayed, i would not have run into:....



on the elevator

erica's class was small compaired to yesterdays turn out- it was nice to dance in smaller groups
we did a new combo to this amazing song

originally joni mitchell's CASE OF YOU
but a cover by diana krull

Just before our love got lost you said,
"I am as constant as a northern star."
And I said, "Constantly in the darkness
Where's that at?
If you want me I'll be in the bar."
On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada
With your face sketched on it twice
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you, darling
And I would still be on my feet
Oh I would still be on my feet

Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
I remember that time you told me, you said,
"Love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine
'Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you, darling
Still, I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
And she said,
"Go to him, stay with him if you can
But be prepared to bleed"
Oh but you are in my blood
You're my holy wine
You're so bitter, bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
Still I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

then this happened to my right foot:



then we dropped in on derek at ida


(MJP)

an amazing dancer and choreographer!!!

look at this incredible studio overlooking hollywood blvd!!!


derek introduced me to this beautiful coldplay song that i had never heard

SEE YOU SOON- COLDPLAY

So you lost your trust
And you never should have
No,you never should have
But don't break your back
If you ever hear this
But don't answer that
In a bullet proof vest
With the windows all closed
I'll be doing my best
I'll see you soon
In a telescope lens
And when all you want is friends
I'll see you soon

So they came for you
They came snapping at your heels
They come snapping at your heels
But don't break your back
If you ever hear this
But don't answer that

In a bullet proof vest
With the windows all closed
I'll be doing my best
I'll see you soon

In a telescope lens
And when all you want is friends
I'll see you soon
And oh,

And oh, you lost your trust
And oh, you lost your trust
No, don't lose your trust
No, you lost your trust


this one made me smile today

Blackface?

Really Jessica? Has this blog no sense of morals... I'm disappointed.

not really though.

I went to a club on Tuesday, It was throwing a party, theme was "Olympic Wannabes" which prompted a bunch of people to put on blackface and come as the Jamaican bobsled team... apparently thats still cool in Australia.

that is so cool!!!!!

i think the jamaican bobsled team should always be something to celebrate - and if not them- certainly john candy.

have we taken the team and mr. candy for granted here in the u.s. ? maybe.

and al jolson in the jazz singer- i had to use it!
