the heidi chronicles

on my way to have lunch with one of my oldest friends yesterday (since age 4, kids)... hadn't seen her in a good eight years, probably 10... wras's music for the pre-pubescent and they play rainbow connection.

and i cry.

i cry because i always have/do when i hear that song.

and i cry when i think of the great loss millions of children around the world have no idea they suffer at the loss of jim henson.

sure the work and spirit continue, but still just ain't the same.

i owe a small part of my very happy childhood heart to that man and his genius.

i can't tell you what a thrill i get when it hits me that i work within mere feet of some of it.
