tired
very very tired.
so very very tired.
tuckered
pooped
bushed
whipped
beat
exhausted
worn
spent
just damn tired.

simple as that.
------------------------ ---------------------
did not want to get out of bed this morning. could have taken a personal day but there was just too much work to do. still too much work to do, but i�ve been pounding the coffee so at least i�m not nodding off. not good to fall asleep when working with sharp weapons. you could end up with some very strange piercings that way.

got a bunch of collage work done last night, only to see the largest one peel up this morning. at least it gives me something to do tonight. another night of trash TV & painting ahead tonight. hoping to make some headway on a few pieces tonight. also have some design work i�m bringing home. that will catch me up a bit at work. (& i thought i was too old for homework. ha.)

looking forward to getting out tomorrow night. don�t have to do a damn thing except relax & listen to music & drink coffee. i can deal with that. thinking of bringing my sketchpad with me to the show & working on some ideas i�ve got for larger paintings, but i don�t know if that would be rude or not. i�ll play it by ear & see what happens.

a little sad today. no real reason for it, just am. think the cold is starting to get to me� but then again, i don�t have to shovel cold. i think once the boy goes to bed & i can sit down in front of my easel i�ll feel better. a few pots of coffee should help too.

i think the sadness may also have to do with the fact that i�ve got a new poem brewing & i don�t quite know what to do with it yet. it is gearing up to be a long piece (perhaps in several parts) & i need to find the headspace to start pulling it together. the time i�ve got, but the will is weak when it comes to the words right now. if i follow the patterns of the past, the poem will just come spilling out at some point. just hoping i don�t stain the carpet when it does.

more tomorrow.
be well.
