So I and Darrell and Kathleen Lopez all met for dinner on Friday night. After a few hundred hours of story telling we finally got down to the business of shooting this sucker. Ultimately its going pretty well. There are some pretty big tasks at hand but we seem to getting though the list. I had this brain storm... I plan on coming back to Portland with the whole family this summer. We should shoot another one of these. We need another script from Darrell. So I tell him about this and he says, "Well, you know, I just can't come up with things that quickly..." I said I understood but if he did have any other ideas he should let me know. We eventually said our goodbyes and I headed back home. Before I went to bed I checked my email, there were 2 news stories from the maestro... Darrell really, really is a genius.

Old freinds
You know there are just people that you just align with. You can be completely different with radically different lives. But like breathing it's just there and it goes on for life time. It's easy. In our American culture we seem to be closer to our friends than to our families. Its great to just be comfortable with who one is and to be with people who are seemingly happy to have you be who you are.
Shaken...
How do we fall away from extremely close friends? How do we not know that one of the most special people in one's world has left it. To have missed the smile and laughter of a truly remarkable woman. To have not been there to share the loss, to help, to support. How does it happen?
