When did nail polish get on the no fly zone? I get pissed when my stuff is taken in the name of "security" that has traveled <100k miles.
I suppose I should take it as a compliment that they think I am dangerous with nailpolish, a pin and inca kola.
@nelz9999 don't even get me started. That was me trying to put a positive spin on my TSA bs anger.

For a change of scenery, I am working from my living room granny punk writing desk today. It's been creative and fruitful.
The best way to get out of a funk, for me, is to think about the future. A future I want.

@ilainie Yahhhhhh! I totally regret not buying those! ps. I recogonize that tokidoki bag from London in the back. ;) miss you already. xx
@MarkRiva the feeling is mutual! looking forward to forward momentum!
@Radiskulls are you offering?.... I do need one...
Someday, maybe not too far into the future, I would like to produce a feature picture. Something that rivals Jodorosky or Fellini.

Supertramp loud on the stereo is bloody well right.
@JenniferSertl great ideas! I'm dreaming of a post modern satyricon myself.
@JenniferSertl I will be there! Let's plan on it! If you ever need an LA guide, you need only ask. :)

@leahpeah gel polish is awesome, but it sucks to remove. Both nails & toes. Perfect manicure for 2-4 weeks, but lots of acetone 2 remove.
That is a gorgeous string of words! @bfeld ran face first into the buzz saw of someone's arrogance today.
@shamir_k I did!!! I very excited about that! Thank you!!!
I hate morning meetings that do not happen. I work to be up and present. Disrespectful of my time and life. Today, it's 3 of them. Grrrr.

@wwjimd Can you share more details about that?
@wwjimd Ah, a bit like transparency with your self? Not having to use energy to forget/hide/explain/make excuses to yourself?
@wwjimd Maybe it's more efficient use of your energy, so you have more available for other (conscious) activities?
@wwjimd Sweet. I've never heard that concept applied to ethics, so very cool! I like it! :)
@wwjimd If only corporations could learn this, hmm? I suppose I could start with dreams of group and community ethics... those must exist.
@wwjimd Yeah. I like that idea.
