Divinity Rising: All Part of the Show -

Or at least, let’s go to Youtube and see some new stuff…. It’s video week!  The parade video/picture slide is finally  finished! HURRAY!

The rough cut of  “Calling All the Magical People” is the soundtrack We rushed to have this version done by the parade, but I went back and redid some vocals, etc afterwards.  I’m hoping the mastered version will be available for purchase within the week. I just couldn’t put off sharing this any longer.

I’m going to try to break up my newsletters from now on  so they’re not so daunting  and come a little more frequently. By the time I get around to writing to you, I have so much to share, I fear I will fry your brains. In light of this problem, I have discovered an interesting solution! The “publish scheduling” option of wordpress!

In my next newsletter, I’ll have something fun for Derby for you. Do you have any off the wall photos or videos from Derby? Annual Derby Festivities ? I am compiling a parody youtube slideshow/video and could use your help…I am compiling a parody video/slide show that shows the other side of Derby – the drunken mayhem, the mud wrestling, chaos, traffic, and some of the fireworks, crowds…weird.. can you send your off the wall derby photos/videos?

Send them to ddcsubmit@gmail.com along with your written permission to use them. I will not be making any money off of this video. I will be posting it on Youtube for my Derby blog on my website. I will list your name in the info on youtube.

Thanks!

Annnd, enough of the past: Looking to the future:

May 29, 2011 at Saint’s Skybar in Louisville: I”m presenting a fantasy of poetry, pop culture, visual art and body paint! I can’t wait for you to see the five head to toe body paint designs I dreamt up (applied by international fashion designer Genna Yussman) and the two models wearing my poetry in calligraphy by Jen Grove.  In anticipation, we recently did a photo shoot for upcoming fashion magazine Black and Grey by Bil Brown. I’ll be performing with guests Truth B Told, Raanan Hershberg, Jessica Neamon, Mamakitty Southwood and Tony Smith. Pop music, high energy performance poetry, projected abstract videos, a juried art show and more. This is going to be one of the most exciting and sexy events this summer! Don’t miss it! Tickets and more are available now at Brown Paper Ticket, the awesome sustainable and environmentally friendly ticket service. Click Here .   This event will probably sell out and has limited seating, so get your VIP reserved seating areas today for just a couple dollars more per person! Ten percent of proceeds go to Breaking New Grounds, a local non-profit focused on creating jobs with sustainable urban agriculture.

As I move in some new directions and “break new grounds”, I have once again been reminded that people seem to think that I just push forward with ease as I follow my joy and create my heaven on earth. They comment on how easy it comes for me and remark that I am fearless. These are absolute untruths. I work very hard to make things happen. I sacrifice a lot of simple pleasures, stability and other things that most people want in order to achieve the things that I do. I deal with people who wish to attack me because I stand out.  I have to combat (with the help of friends sometimes) doubt, fear, insecurities like everyone.  I have to remind myself of the following: “There will always be opportunities to worry, to fear, to doubt, to hand over my power – but I will not give it. I am responsible for my experience and I plan to enjoy it. ”

I give you all permission to use my mantra if you feel it will help you in facing the difficulties that come our way day to day, tempting us to fear, to doubt, to give in and not claim our birthright, our heaven on earth.  As a whole, we are all only as strong as our weakest brethren.

Love, Light, and blessings to send you through your dreams <3

Yesterday, I rode to Lagrange, Ky with Norm. Norm is my “go to guy” – a producer, an art director, a camera man,  a talented artist and clearly a male.   At least, I’m pretty sure he is.  I mean… I’ve never checked to be sure. Sometimes it’s hard to tell gender in the Artist  species, but he shows all the usual male markings, and his  obstinate insistence in using unnecessary technology further confirms my suspicions.

We headed down to Lagrange, Kentucky to check out a farm for our upcoming video, “The Dead Walk the Earth”.  This is the first video that will be released on Diaries of a Godling. We’re all uber excited. You are, too. I can tell! My super psychic senses are tingling.

You can get a summary of our trip and the mapping skills of the great I-Phone  with this enlightening video.  What’s your favorite technological obsession? What is your biggest frustration with technological obsessions?  Do you look forward to the zombie western?

I give you: The Manly Obsession with Gadgetry

Also, we started stripping wallpaper in the RV only to decide that we want to replace some of the walls.  Cody ripped a miraculous critter shaped patch! His comments further express manly obsession.

I can’t believe it’s been another week…time to reflect and check in…The last week FLEW by!

I’ve been so busy that I’ve been running to keep up!  I

1)had repairs done to the Rv on a couple different days,

2)moved all of my stuff into storage in my friend’s garage,

3) sold a bunch of stuff I didn’t need/want on Craigslist ( I love Craigslist- it paid for the engine repairs).

4) Went to three children’s birthday parties (including Cody’s which I had to buy the supplies for, set up, host, etc)

5) cleaned out a refrigerator that has probably not been cleaned in over a year at least.

6) Scheduled some very exciting upcoming video shoots

7) gave the boy a mohawk (the boy is my love term for Cody)
Entered a poetry fellowship contest for $15,000 (Cross your fingers, light a candle, say a prayer!)

9) all the usual life stuff

10) actually did get some sleep

11) broke down on my way to Carly Rae’s to host the Speak Easy

After replacing the throttle cable and fuel pump, it was still breaking down.

Check out what I look like frazzled and sans make up in this misadventure when the RV  stalled followed by *insert dramatic music here* the death of a battery.

I took it to the mechanic the next day and he replaced the fuel filter and fuel line for me. He didn’t even charge for labor! I am so blessed! It’s been running great ever since!

By Friday night, I was in the middle of a nervous break down, but after Cody’s birthday party Saturday, things returned to a slightly slower pace…for about two days. Coming up this week, I’m acting in two short films, visiting an awesome poetry/film festival at the University of Louisville, and Mike Driskell will be starting the renovation of the inside of the RV….and I’ll be taking some video of it!

Oh! A nice little surprise to add in to it all! I won this great little prize package from my blog pal, Jake over at his Blog :)

Leave me a comment or two about a misadventure of your own 

Valentine’s day is coming. That’s right – and it ain’t gonna’ get me down – no way, no sir! That’s because I have the best lover in the world. That’s right, I have the holiest of hard ons for YOU. HOOOO-LY SCHA-WIIIIIIIIING!

(They always said I had penis envy).

I hope you’ll receive this week’s love offering – some love tools…oh, that’s right…I hope to supply you with things to bring das great pleasure to your other lovers……slather them all over facebook, myspace, email, where ever you feel the need to expel your love to the world – Let them be the oil as you  give somebody a soul rubdown, because this life (and everyone you see in it) is your grandest love affair…it’s waiting for you— and not just to lift it up, wear sexy lingerie for it or bring it flowers – but also  to dance poorly, step on it’s feet, burn its dinner and all sorts of other things that horrify you but secretly endear you to its bosom.

And you don’t have to limit your use of these to just February Love Making – use them anytime, anywhere you like…for stimulating the souls around you should be a regular practice -it’s part of a healthy human existence!
