I've added a new movie to one of my favorites. The other day at the library, I picked up Koyaanisqatsi. That's the first movie in the genre of non-narrative films like Baraka and Winged Migration (that have been mentioned here before). I had borrowed another movie in the Qatsi trilogy (Naqoyqatsi) a couple of months ago, but it didn't grab me the way this one did.

Koyaanisqatsi is a Hopi word meaning "life out of balance" or (as the movie itself states, "a way of life which calls for another way of living") If you've seen and enjoyed Baraka, you'd love this one! The cinematographer, Ron Fricke also directed Baraka.

Delilah, after watching the first few minutes of Koyaanisqatsi with me the other night, said "When I grow up, I want to make movies like this one, Baraka and Winged Migration". She absolutely loves this kind of movie. What a kid I'm raising!!!

No, I haven't fell off the face of the Earth! I just haven't really felt like
blogging lately. Things are well! I got the Starbucks job. I start on Tuesday.
I'm looking forward to it, and aprehensive about it all at the same time...

It's going to be weird because I wont be spending nearly as much time with Delilah as I had been. That was the good part about being unemployed...time to move on though...the vacation's over!!!!!

The warm weather has finally arrived here. Time to break out the shorts!! Also it's nice seeing all the Wesleyan chickies showing some skin (I know, I'm bad!) The forecast is calling for warm, humid weather all week, along with the chance of those pesky thunderstorms.

Aside from a couple of interviews with Starbucks Coffee, things have been pretty quiet on the job front. I'm interviewing with them for a equipment maintenance position. They seem like a pretty great company to work for.... Wish me luck...this unemployment stuff really rots....(well, I am enjoying the slight vacation, though I know I really need to get back to work..)
