Banana Island

Hi Everyone! I finally get a night off after teaching today. Yeah!!! I finished watching Project Runway Season 7 finale an hour ago. I thought all the collections exhibited a high level of design and quality. Seth Aaron was the winner. Even though Seth Aaron is a Washington boy, I personally liked Emilio Sosa's collection the best. My number one attraction to Emilio's collection was his use of color, beautiful! I'm so tired of these black and white collections ending up as the winning collections. I think making a cohesive collection using color is by far a more difficult challenge to accomplish. Congratulations to all the designers and their creative collections: Seth Aaron, Emilio Sosa, and Mila Hermanovski. Therefore my inspiration for tonight's posting is Project Runway, and a dream I woke up with about a small banana island. I must have been hungry when I went to sleep? Here is my posting, and a sign off from Tim Gunn "make it work!" (Happy birthday Goldy - hope it was a great gig!) Nighty night. xxoo

Banana Island
Banana Island
Only 10k long
And 1 half mile wide
Banana Island is where
The wild Jibby Jabby monkeys reside
Even though over
100 banana tress grow
On the island
The Jibby Jabby monkeys
Keep nibbling at its sides
One day soon I fear
The Jibby Jabby monkeys
Will be swimming
While crying banana size tears

Bass Girl

Hola! Okay, I remember hearing the birds chirping while I lay in bed this morning. I was still awake, from too much coffee, and it must have been about 6 am. Therefore, I probably obtained about 2 hours of sleep before embarking on my day. I taught some violin and guitar lessons today, and my son came home from college. Returning from my gig tonight with the band Brainstorm in Lynnwood, I watched Thursday's Project Runway show. It was exciting because this is the last challenge before the designers show their collections at Bryant Park. The four designers picked for the final show are: Emilio Sosa, Jay Nicolas Sario, Mila Hermanovski, and Seth Aaron Henderson. My inspiration is derived from the Project Runway show and from playing bass at so many gigs. Love to all. Nighty night. xxoo

Bass girl
Do you need someone
To bow and pluck
Your strings?
Do you need someone
To complete your duet
And make your music sing
Bass girl
Bass girl
Waiting in the wings
Who will the magic carpet bring?
