Living in a Corn Maze / Diva Variations

No, not cool and summer groovy like Frankie Beverly and Maze...

More like

why is it that every new and fabulous idea I have ends up taking up more and more space in my once divine domicile? I seem to remember a time when I could actually fling my arms wide in some place of the sun. Not now, lest my entire empire come a-clattering down like a nearly completed jenga tower after the swipe of a vengeful cat.

It's duskin down dark, people, so your DivaCardista needs to find her way to the City and back before Tyra has them skinny women flying through the air with the greatest of ease (and, of course, a relaxed face).

So as always, I wish you peace...and space!

Blessings,

THG life / i feel for you...

Poor Marion.

I feel bad for her. To go so far, only to be dragged so far down.

The good news is, she is still young enough to rise from this scandal and do even greater things.

In fact she should be getting emails and phone calls of assurance from quite a few people who have been down the very same road she is travelling now.

Hugh Grant, Vanessa Williams, former President Clinton...and that cleptomaniacal actress who said she was stealing to get into character...y'all need to call Marion right about now. Tell her everything's gonna be all right afterwhile.

Anyhoo...

Did you hear? Chaka & yet another of Simon's favorites is gonna be in The Color Purple in 2008!

Now, to be honest, I had mixed feelings when I heard they were gonna be putting famous folk all up in the show, as if the show needed "fixing" or "hype" to sell it. As you know, your DivaCardista has seen the show and loved it already. But then I began to pray & it came to me: this might be a win win for all involved--the audience gets to see a perfectly lovely show AND some of their favorite stars, and the cast & crew get to keep their jobs [healthcare/dental/pension...] a bit longer, and the "star" folk get to strut their stuff in a whole new arena.

Ah, life gets better and better, does it not?

Blessings,
