  • Promoing H.o.p.’s blog and his "Haunt of the House of Death!" audio

    Feb raced by in the way that March is now doing. I suppose I got something done other than bookshelves. Worked on the book some. Got up H.o.p.’s own blog which is good for a couple of reasons. One, it’s all his own words, what he wants to blog about, and at his own speed.…

  • The 2nd wave of uh-oh it’s animals in my food hits H.o.p. Briefly.

    H.o.p.: Guess what! Daddy told me there are pigs in pot stickers. Me (framing an old pic): Yes, there are. You didn’t realize that? H.o.p.: Well, I would like to keep the pigs safe. Me: H.o.p., you do know the beef you eat comes from cows. H.o.p. (after a split second’s consideration): Well, you know…

  • H.o.p. asks "What's your most embarrassing moment"

    H.o.p. is wanting to know things like “What’s your most embarrassing moment” and by this he means two or three dozen. As my whole life is an embarrassment I was unable to make a selection. But the co-adult is less tragic and does have a segment that he has always related as “most embarrassing”. He…

  • The music for the day was Arvo Part’s "Miserere"

    For a few minutes yesterday AM H.o.p. woke up saying he was sick, something about his chest hurting etc. and fell back to sleep. Marty was worried. But on Saturday at acting class the regular teacher wasn’t there as she was sick and I’ve heard a lot about “sick” going around and I figured that…

  • Heston Listening Party

    I don’t do parties but decided to do this one. Heston was having a listening party on the roof of the 17 floor William Oliver House downtown for his upcoming CD (Marty engineered and mixed 11 of 14 songs), part of the purpose of which was to do a survey and pick the first single.…

  • Silly Wooden Models, by H.o.p.

    OK, now this one…this one is worthy. And it’s funny, at least to me, the end is. Cracks me up every time. H.o.p. had seen these wooden artist models last spring or winter at IKEA and he had to have them. He decided this was what he needed to start practicing stop animation. But then…

  • The Boogie Man Monster, by H.o.p.

    So, H.o.p. shot thousands of pics over the summer for uhm stop animation, and I say “Uhm, stop animation” because it all turned out to be slide shows, really. At spring’s end he had done, for a kid, this major opus of a stop animation. And then suddenly he went Lego crazy and after viewing…

  • Just getting new materials for H.o.p. in line for the year, that's all I'm doing

    Books, books and more books. That’s what I’ve been up to. Ordering books for H.o.p. for this coming year. Math books and history books and science books. Books, books and more books. And plenty of books now waiting in the Wish List for ordering later. I never know what’s going to catch H.o.p.’s interest. Unexpectedly,…

  • I spent my day stitching paper bones together with artificial sinew

    The world is falling apart and here I am performing the essential duty of stitching paper bones together. However did that come to pass? Yesterday we’d planned another excursion to North Georgia, but H.o.p. was slow slow slow to get going, so slow that by the time we instead arrived at the Fernbank Science Center…

  • H.o.p. gets to see a bit of a movie being filmed

    So H.o.p. got tonight to see a little of what it’s like when a movie is being filmed. The movie is “One Missed Call”, directed by Eric Valette (French, don’t know anything about him). It’s a remake of a Japanese horror film where people receive voicemails from the future which include the time of their…
