What is it you want more than anything...?

[MrNewportCustom]

Aw, me too! Glad to find some common ground here--what did happen to conversations, anyway?

I haven't been able to pin that down, yet. lol

And I have full confidence that your talents in photography will get you places--when it's something that personal, that deep of a need, you'll find a way to get back on that horse.

Thank you. I believe it's going to happen. Something is always inspiring an image I can create. If you've seen my photos on the Show Your Own Art Here thread, this one (2h:15m to set up, :20m to shoot lol) was inspired by a scene in the music video for Murray Head's, One Night in Bangkok.

Somehow, I came up with the idea, "Bucket of Nails" as a title or theme for a story I've been wanting to write, but now I see how I can use it for a photo, instead. (And I know where to get an old, wooden bucket of nails, too!)

I'm currently listening to Ancient Dreams, by Patrick O'Hearn (formerly of Missing Persons), and one song title, Beauty in Darkness, has always been an inspiration for me to do something photographic with it since the album came out in '85. I often see myself in a large studio, only the modeling lights on, with someone or something being the image of that song title. The song, of course, playing in the background.

I've wanted to travel the United States and photograph bridges and tunnels in all parts of the country, consolidate the pictures into a book and title it, Over, Under and Through.

Have you seen Somewhere in Time? I've always wanted to recreate the portrait of Elise McKenna.

Just a few of the reasons I want a studio and a darkroom, and plenty of time and money to do what I want. . . . Somehow, it's going to happen.

Or maybe I'm just having a mid-life crisis. lol

First you won't tell us what you're reading and now you won't tell us what you want!

You're so full of mysterious secrets!

lol

And the mystery is part of her charm!

I want a date with the girl who served me at Perkins tonight. And who has served me many times, in the past. She is really funny, honest, and just plain down to earth. I love it.

I guess all bets are off.

Those Perkins Girls are dangerous. Trust me, I know.lol

 

[ValerieAmelia]

Post what you really want at the moment. Anything. I figure this could be an interesting thread for releasing one's thoughts.

And... go.

I want someone to go for a walk with and get a chocolate shake.

Can it be a chocolate peanut butter shake, and warm outside?

I want to find out what is wrong with me and fix it. I am sick of being sick and constantly in pain. It's bad when you wish to find something wrong with you, just so you can make it right.

 

[Mid-fogey]

Well,...

He's probably waiting for the right time to ask. That's what my guy says. It's all a matter of timing.

...young feller ought to get on to it. Time's a'wastin.

 

[Caledonia]

Brad Pitt, but I think I might have said that already a few times. Is it so much to ask?[huh]

 

[AmateisGal]

I want my novel published. And to make a career out of being a novelist cuz I have TONS of ideas for books. I don't need to make a lot of money, I don't want to be famous, but I'd like to be comfortable. Take a trip to Europe every year and not worry about paying the bills, y'know?

Re: marriage proposals...

Ask her!
Ask him!

For the ladies, February 29th is Sadie Hawkins Day. Traditionally, ladies can ask gentlemen to marry (without loss of face) on this day.

I want to see the surface of my dining room table again someday, it has become the pile again...

 

[Jovan]

Those Perkins Girls are dangerous. Trust me, I know.lol

... do tell.

Can it be a chocolate peanut butter shake, and warm outside?

Of course.

Jovan,

You're a genius! What a charming thread this is! You all sound like such lovely people - We SHOULD found our own town!

I'd like a little corner of the world where it's still the first morning of spring, somewhere around 1910. Birds are shaking the dew from their wings on the high, green hedge around my house. Someone is baking bread. My hands give off the scent of the talcum my wife uses to powder her arms. In the distance, at the bandstand on the green, the town band is practicing for tonight's dance, playing "Let Me Call You Sweetheart" without any irony whatsoever.

In a few years I'll have a war to go to, and will never see what the world will become.

Adjusting my Rose-Coloured Glasses,

T.

Ms. S.,

I'll tell you what; I'll split them with you. That way, we can each have a rose-coloured monocle. Very dashing!

[retrogirl1941]

Yay!

Do you think that would add to my bad girl image( in a film noir kind of way)?

Cure for Crohns so my friend no longer is sick....cure for every day Depression so I stop having mood swings... yup

 

[sweetfrancaise]

Have you seen Somewhere in Time? I've always wanted to recreate the portrait of Elise McKenna.

That is just bloody crazy--my mom named me after that character. I certainly don't look anything like the stunning Jane Seymour, but that's where I got my name!

That depends on how bad your image is already...
