deep cut
n. an emotion you haven’t felt in years that you might have forgotten about completely if your emotional playlist hadn’t been left on shuffle—a feeling whose opening riff tugs on all your other neurons like a dog on a leash waiting for you to open the door.

A lesson from visual artist Theo Kamecke: Seek inspiration in unexpected places.
“I am down there on the lower rungs when it comes to technology. […] I understand how computers work and did that 30 years ago even before most people. But this is not about computers.” ~Theo Kamecke on the sculptures he creates using handmade vintage circuit boards.](http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l7vaufFoJC1qzegx6o1_500.jpg)

Present Participle (which I love; it is good to have verbs in motion)
Wanting to give you something beautiful and coming up short, having told all the stories about myself and you may have not even liked those that much anyway. Feeling content even while fearful of approaching normalcy. Mischieving little inside jokes for myself alone and imagining reactions that may or may not be forthcoming. Avoiding what I used to seek out—that’s the strangest part.
(My boyfriend reminding me I was 23 when I met Julian, not 24 as I wrote in the book.)
Forgetting how old I am, as usual. Feeling older than I am, as usual. Not that it’s a bad way to feel.

I have always thought that by observing things with a great deal of attention and perseverance you eventually wrest some of their secrets from them, making them utter what they would most like to keep to themselves."

So I think that I’ve been faithful to the spirit of the book but not the letter. I had to make it mine."
Xan Brooks talks to Bernardo Bertolucci
Bertolucci says this about his adaptation of his novel into a script (he wrote both) for The Dreamers. I am dying to read the book in a hope that it reveals something I feel I’m missing in the movie. But I do think that being true to the spirit of a book is much more important than the letter. It’s how I feel about A Love Song for Bobby Long (and negatively, about Watchmen; it was pretty accurate to the letter but horribly off when it came to the spirit).
I would also love to discuss the film with my dad, who was in Paris at the time in which is was set but I’m already made so uncomfortable watching the film alone, I can’t imagine watching it with him.
love notes
these are things that I could not tell you;
things that remind me of you when I want nothing more than to forget;
things that have gone wrong;
things that have gone right;
things that will never happen;
things that are your fault,
my fault,
the faults of no one;
these are things that we did not do and will not let go of
