Current Mood

Heeeere's Frank!
Jake Gyllenhaal & Friend

I don't know about you Minions but my Current Mood is: "Apprehensive" with a side of don't worry be happy.

Much like Donnie Darko (Jake Gyllenhaal) and his ax with Frank The Rabbit looming in the background.

What's that? You get the apprehensive part, where does the side of happy enter into the equation? The ax is the happy part, it will help you overcome and defeat any obstacle in your way.

Of course I am not saying one should carry an ax literally. It's a metaphor.

Happy Metaphor Monday Minions!

Jennifer Garner

This Meme sums up my Current Mood perfectly, perfect in every little way. There are so many of you in a variety of situations and parts of my life I am feeling this sentiment towards that a list of shout outs would take a while.

So you will get spared the public embarrassment because of the time factor. Just know that I see you and this has been duly noted.

That's all...

Current Mood

For those of you who haven't seen Nicole Kidman's brilliant performance in Babygirl you won't understand the image and tag line above to it's full extent. However you will get the drift. Fortunately the phrase can stand alone out of context as well, which is why "Get Exactly What You Want" is my Current Mood.

"Yes" 2025 is off to a rocky start, living here in Los Angeles with the devastation of the fires etc...and with January 20th looming we must fasten our seatbelts it's going to be an even bumpier ride. 

This being said keep your focus on what you want and you shall receive.

Now get out there and seize the day!

Do You?
Annie Lennox

So here we are 2025 and guess what my Current Mood is Minions? Yep using the "F" word right and left is my where my mouth goes many a time throughout the day.

I had curbed my usage these past few years only to recently notice I have upped my utterance of said word. It's not necessarily in a negative context that I use it. Most of the time my go to is using it as an adjective.

Anyway it's cool to know the legendary Annie Lennox and Myself have this in common.

PS I wonder how many times she let loose with the "F" bomb while recording Sweet Dreams?

Mic Drop!

Current Mood

Ho, Ho, Hum...Lucy van Pelt has got it going on with the above statement.

While I am not a total Scrooge one of my least favorite things about the Christmas Season is Christmas Music.

So my Current Mood regarding Christmas Music is: "Over It."

Be honest with yourself the majority of Christmas Music is simply bad. When have you honestly heard any songs related to the Holiday that don't drive you crazy at some point???

The only good Christmas Song I have actually heard is "All I Want For Christmas Is You" the issue with this song is they play Mariah Carey's take on it WAY too much to the point of exhaustion. This is why people mock it, it's not because it's actually bad.

So I'm going to ride it out like I do every year and avoid listening to any and all Christmas Music. 

Hey Schroeder, play some Bauhaus for me and Lucy, do it and do it now!

Alison Arngrim 
& 
Nellie Oleson

Took a bus ride home from Fresno, CA yesterday where I visited some friends and did a photo shoot. Being it was the Sunday after Thanksgiving needless to say traffic was bad coming into Los Angeles (and the route was somewhat wonky) we arrived an hour and half later than scheduled.

Long story short I tend to be claustrophobic thus Allison Arngrim mimicking an image of her iconic character Nellie Olsen straight outta Little House on the Prairie perfectly sums up my Current Mood.

Honestly I am still reeling from the PTSD that ride provided. I can't help myself, look what it did to me.

PS it also didn't help that the driver was somewhat green 

Have a groovy week!

But Is It Art???

Here is Art The Clown staring down an apprehensive Jenna Kanell as Tara Hayes at a pizza place in Terrifier! Apprehensive is definitely my Current Mood.

Given the tomfoolery that has been going on this past week (we are currently working on tomfoolery week number two) I'm definitely got a gut feeling like Tara something very wrong could be up. As they always say: Trust your gut...

I do, thus I am guessing a storm is brewing, also I just brewed some tea as well.

So gird your loins Minions, take care of yourselves and be careful out there.

Make today amazing!

Current Mood

This is from the 1990 David Lynch Classic Wild At Heart starring Nicholas Cage & Laura Dern. This dandy of a cameo featuring Sheryl Lee as Glinda The Good Witch hit in the films final act.

While I am a fan of Lynch's work overall, Wild At Heart, to me is his greatest (Mulholland Drive, is a VERY close second.)

Thus this is my Current Mood.

It' merely November 2nd, give me time to recover from my month. "Yes" October is my month. If it's yours as well, then you understand...

Helen Shivers
Sarah Michelle-Gellar

Woke up to a beautiful sunny day this October 12, 2024 here in Los Angeles, CA. It feels so full of possibility. 

Tis the season so guess what my Current Mood is? It's Helen Shivers in I Know What You Did Last Summer before the incident. "Yes" Helen Shivers is a mood, trust me...

You remember how full of ambition, hope and optimism she was before that fateful night destroyed all of that for her? Yeah, losing those qualities basically ruined her life.

So today we honor her initial spirit, by honoring her spirit (remember she's dead) 

Only 19 more days till Halloween!!!

Alfred Hitchcock's
Psycho

"We all go a little mad sometimes" - Norman Bates, Psycho

Norman Bates got this right. Sometimes we all DO go a little mad. If you are in that place then join me there as it's a Current Mood thing.

Come with me to the other side and let's descend into madness. Eat the madness and when you are done spit it back out! It's the circle of life after all. 

Madness happens from time to time that's all you need to know. 

Don't fight it, simply flow with it. It's all about in how you handle the ride.

Salma Hayek

My Current Mood? Sometimes you feel like Santanico Pandemonium (Salma Hayek) in Robert Rodriguez's "From Dusk Till Dawn" -

"I'm not gonna drain you completely. You're gonna turn for me. You'll be my slave. You'll live for me. You'll eat bugs because I order it. Why? Because I don't think you're worthy of human blood. You'll feed on the blood of stray dogs. You'll be my foot stool. And at my command, you'll lick the dog shit from my boot heel. Since you'll be my dog, your new name will be "Spot". Welcome to slavery." 

That's all...

Give It Up, Do As I Say...

"Once you put your hand in the flame, you can never be the same
There's a certain satisfaction in a little bit of pain
I can see you understand, I can tell that you're the same
If you're afraid, well, rise above
I only hurt the ones I love" - Erotica, Madonna

Any questions???

I thought not!!!

Kiss me hard before you go

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Jobeth Williams 
Poltergeist

Another Monday another barrier to get past. This image from the movie Poltergeist illustrates my Current Mood in a quite accurate manner.

There's always, no matter how good things are, some barrier or pile up of things that need to be plowed through. 

Take Jobeth Williams and the many ciorpses she had to claw through to escape the swimming pool being built in her backyard to become triumpahant in Poltergeist.

Same thing, she came, she saw, she conquered. 

These types of thigs happen every day and it's how you deal with these things that makes a difference in the game of life.

Now go out there and slay those dragons!

Anna Paquin

It's the Saturday before Easter and all through the house not a creature was stirring except for my Current Mood.

I don't know about you but my inner beast is stirring and it's not playing. Something's got to give and it's here to help me along the way. 

"Yes" it's going to get pertty hairy and such but in the end it will be over and worth it.

Here to represent my inner beast is Anna Paquin straight outta Trick r Treat...Grrrrrrrrrowl!!!

For the record my inner beast actually barks at the moon, but I thought a growl was more universal and I wanted everyone to relate.

What's your inner beast like?

I'll Just Leave This Here...
Sydney Sweeney

Here is a BTS photo of Sydney Sweeney on the set of Immaculate. It's sending mixed messages.

On the one hand there's an element of terror. On the flip side there is an element of fun!

Thus today's Current Mood it captures the state of the world we live to perfection and then some.

Who knew a BTS photo from a horror film could be so relevant? Raise your hand, mine is up!

Someone make a meme out of this evocative image it covers many thoughts and moods.
