Excerpt of The Departure by Michael Parker

  HOME

Wednesday, February 02, 2005

Just a note to let you know that blogging will be light. I'm busy with a contract job till next weeks' deadline. 

And when I get the opportunity, I'll be working on my Best Films of 2004 shockwave file.  (I hope each one of you have a Shockwave Player installed on your system so you can run my file.  I do think you are going to love it.)  Back on subject: I had previously planned to get my list out last week but the films Million Dollar Baby and Hotel Rwanda opened up at the theaters in my state.  I thought I'd hold off publishing until I could see those highly acclaimed films.   

And I will also be writing up a review of Mario Frangoulis' sophomore CD titled Follow Your Heart

In closing, my daughter K (5) came in to the office just now and handed me a note she had written and ripped out of her mini-notebook.  Since she is not in school yet, her words are made up of make-believe letters, words, and scribbles. She's put forth a great effort because there are words that have been erased and written over.  With the note in my hand, she told me that I need to take this note to work to give to my teacher.  Without skipping a beat, she informs me that the note says "My daddy needs to stay home from work because I want him to stay home and I don't want to go over to [name of her daycare person]." 

Yes, I intend on handing my supervisor this note.  Who knows, maybe it will work.
