Two Things About Today: 1) the Dylan Movie and 2) the Magic Bus

We (my husband and I) went to see the Dylan movie "Complete Unknown" tonight and it was good and we both loved it, though it left out so many details about events shown and many details out about his life and the lives of his inner circle. But the movie was already 2 hrs and 20 minutes (something like that) so unless they wanted a three hour movie or more in two parts I guess they had to skimp a bit. Amazing that the actor who played Dylan could actually perform Dylan's songs like that sounding so much like him. I would see it again. The folk music history tidbets were great and the movie was a lot about change (the times they are a-changin'), which is so totally overgeneralized and vague for me to say so. Everything--okay, okay, so ALMOST everything--okay, okay, so maybe just lots or several things, you decide--about it needs more detail, but it gives a good overview.

Back in the day in the Creative Writing program at BGSU, us poets would play Dylan albums and discuss poetry and guess who :Dylan, as a great poet/songwriter.

Can you spot me under the bus? I was 'told on' today for something that never even happened, that was untrue, then gaslighted into being told that it was just a joke. I think we need a new emoticon of a face under the bus, and another one for a face under a gaslight. I just want some leftover Christmas cookies now. Preferably chocolate since it makes the brain feel so good.

Event #2 proves you can blog about most anything!

See, this blog began as two different posts on my fb page and then I merged them into a blog, the second point quite senseless in going with the movie except that they both happened in the same time (real time, not reel time) frame as the movie.
