Nightbreed Project

I am going to devote as much time as I can to helping bring about public awareness and desire for the Nightbreed Director's Cut DVD. From what I've heard (particularly from the panel this past Saturday night) if enough people are interested then this DVD could be a possibility.

Mad Monster Party 2012

Yesterday was spent in Charlotte, NC at the Mad Monster Party Convention. There was so much going on and so many things that we saw that it is hard to get everything straight in my mind. So I'm going to touch base on some highlights:

People we met:

Brad Dourif

Chris Sarandon

Bill Mosely

Nivek Ogre

Angus Scrimm

Craig Sheffer

Anne Bobby

We also were privleged enough to view the Director's Cut of Nightbreed. The added footage was just amazing, and made the movie finally feel complete. I was amazed and viewing Anne's tears just moved my heart, so more on Nightbreed in a later post, I have some research to do and somethings to set up to see if I can accomplish something...

Until then, I'm am going to catch up on some rest, still wore out from the star struckness of yesterday.

Crystal Defined

Like many others, I've been drawn into the world of pinterest.com I decided to make a board called Crystal Defined, this board made me want to elaborate on a few of the things that I have chosen to define me...

I am a jeweler (well not really, but it sounds cool), a quilter, an upcycler, lover of farm animals, extreme reader, fan of dolphins, NES nostalgia child, and a fan of Red Hill General Store.

These are things that have been relatively constant in my life, crafting is my meditation, I love playing with beads making necklaces and earrings. I enjoy quilting and sewing of any kind. I like to give something old new life and help it avoid going to the garbage dump. I grew up around my friend's farms and enjoyed feeding the calves, chasing the chickens, and playing with the goats. I have loved to read ever since I first learned how. I grew up obsessed with dolphins and have finally had a chance to be up close and personal with them. I am a fan of all things Mario. And Red Hill General Store was one of my first jobs in High School, it is amazing to see how much that small family owned business has grown.

I am still working on Crystal Defined. Both the pinterest board and in real life. I am working on getting back to me, to who I am and who I want to be. It has been a difficult journey thus far, but every step has been worth it.

I have come a long way since the depressed sad person who didn't know which way to turn or go:



But my journey is not through yet. I still have 55 lbs left to lose. But if I have come this far the rest should be attainable as well. Wish me luck on the last bit of my journey.
