last nights picture diary


Five hours, four new friends, three bars, one taqueria, and one play. The chair difrectly in front of me at the theater was reserved for a ghost. It had a plaque rested on the seat and a mexican candle burning below it on the floor. My legs were crossed, and the foot of my top leg kept gliding between the back of the ghost's chair. I kept catching myself doing this and would jerk my foot away quickly, immediately sit up straight, and then apologize outloud to her.

You're pictures from "last night's picture diary" are great, specially the ones from the store. You can almost hear the familiar "store noises". It kind of feels like the person looking at the pictures is living your life.
Few times have I liked pictures enough to compliment the person who took them.
Well, anyway, have a happy life

hey Lorena,
What kind of camera do you use? Digital...?

lorena said...

thanks peeps.

t - the images in this post are from my olympus digital camera which is about 4 years old at this point. I use that camera when I go out to parties/bars, and my medium format camera for my personal and professional work.

Looks like you had a great time!
Good thing you apologized to the ghost. Now she won't come after you!

That seriously looks like so much fun! You always take such wonderful pictures.

VERY nice pics from the evening and the play.... I mean, MY play. Should have asked for permission... now the least you can do is spread the word on the show.

And if you have the program could you please credit the Pancho and Lucy perfromers?

Thanks, Lorena.

Sorry about that, I took the pictures out. I don't have the program - and I have spread the word because that bar crawl was so fun!!! Good work on the play - the actors are super talented - they kind of blew our minds.

Lorena,

The guy in the fedora is Matt Stryker played by Jim Sanchez. 8 Ball Erm in the dress is Danny Wolohan. Set design by James Faerron. The company blew my mind too. I am glad you did the bar crawl. I hosted one of the evenings with the actors. It was the most fun I've had in years.

Thanks for the info. Danny is the one in particular who blew our minds. you are the one who wrote the play - aren't you going to give yourself any credit!?!?

Okay, I will. If I had known you were on the bar crawl too, I would not have said a word about the photos. I didn't mind them at all. They were actually well-framed. I'll have to invite you to my next work, Gibraltar, which previously premiered at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. It should open sometime in the coming year at the Thick House.

no - thats totally fine what you said about the pics - I never post anyones pics but mine or friend's whom I have their permission - I just thought since they were so unrecognizable that it would be ok - no worries.

I think you were at the bar crawl I was at 2 sunday's ago? and you spoke at the begininning of the play...I think?

yes invite me to your next piece - looking forward to it!
