New midsection for a new year...

I think my anti-cellulite stomach shaper is coming in the mail soon (it's been charged to my checking account)...

If I can handle to funny indentations it will leave on my tummy It will be worth it.

Here's what my arms looked like when I wore the ones on my arms...






I know my sister will probably think I'm a moron for showing this photo but I don't care... this is a picture of my stretch marks on my right hip....
I'm thinking about applying for the show LA Ink and have a tattoo of stretch marks on my stretch marks... they might take me up on the offer... it would make a nice sunburst pattern don't you think???





Okay, I don't think I can stay up much longer, even though it is new years eve....

Happy New Years - try not to wake me up at midnight.

Goodbye 2008...

I won't miss you too much.

You did bring me some good things though...

cycle

Mr. Arms

Firmer thighs

A job

Okay, maybe you weren't too bad.

I have to go get a bike now...

I hope I can stay up long enough to go see the movie with my lovely assistant Kristen.

A pain in the foot...

so.... I wore my new shoes last night to class. What I didn't realize is that they moved the bikes around so the bike I usually ride was not where I usually sit. I had the biggest clunker bike of all time. I ended up trying three different bikes before I settled on the one least offensive... it was chunky at the bottom of my stroke (pedal?)...

After class some guys who are "professional" bike riders (they wear the shorts and everything) adjusted my cleats so hopefully tonight my ride will be better. I just have to pick the right bike.

Man, it's just the thing to make you really cranky... getting on a bad bike.

Yesterday at work I was in a bit of a funk. Maybe it's the post Christmas letdown... maybe it's the thought of another New Years Eve alone (but with my lovely assistant Kristen)... maybe it's gas.

Shoes, beautiful shoes! and the bacon debacle...





These are my new cycling shoes. I haven't been this excited about a pair of shoes since I got my tennis shoe roller skates back in the 70's

In that second photo you will see Emma the cat resting on my leg. She decided is was a good place to sit while I was trying to document my new shoes.

I can't wait to test them out tonight.

Yesterday in cycle class someone sat on the bike that I usually ride... it was weird having to use a different bike... the only real upside was that I got a better view of Mr. Arms while he was working out.

The photo below is to commemorate the video of the bacon which was lost when I reformatted the SD card in my camera... it just wasn't downloading it... I'm sad. Oh well, I'll just have to remember it in my head as opposed to on my blog.



This week is the end of the year.... another new years, another set of resolutions... actually I don't think I had any resolutions last year with the exception of firm thighs. I must say my thighs are firmer (not rock hard - genetics has worked against me...).

Mom is thinking that she might have people over for New Years since her party was canceled... that means I can't go to bed at 10pm... that's alright, we need to socialize more often...

On another note, I need to really start moving on my show for February... I have bits and pieces of ideas of projects which I need to formulate into some sort of a show... I just need the tools to finish what I've started... oh the pressure!

Okay, I'm off like a prom dress!

The big thaw.

It's finally melting outside and I think life may return to a semi-normal state.

Yesterday we headed down to Olympia and had a belated Christmas celebration. It made for a long day but it was fun.

I've been thinking about new years and what I should do...

I really enjoy sleeping so I may just go to bed early.

Maybe I'll find somewhere to wear my "almost slutty" dress out.

Today I am really going to go out and buy cycling shoes. I may also go to Lululemon and get a new pair of workout pants (by utilizing a variety of giftcards and cash I received for Christmas).

Last night I went over and spent some quality time with the cats. The streets are finally passable which is nice... their dad comes back tonight so I will head over again today in my own car this time...

Okay, I guess I'm done for now.

The big slushy slushy

It is a mess outside. I managed to get to the gym yesterday and spend some quality time with the cats. The side roads are a big mess though... Slush is very messy and slippery... it's just gross. I had to use my mother's car in order to get around. I may try to drive my car this morning - I will report back as to how it goes.

This afternoon we're heading down to Olympia for tamales and Christmas (a few days late).

I managed to survive the post Christmas let down because I didn't really have Christmas I think...

OH YES... THE RAT STORY!

Yesterday morning I was down in the basement gathering up my laundry when I saw what appeared to be a fur cuffed glove on the dryer. I realized that we don't own any fur cuffed gloves. IT WAS A RAT! It was all curled up asleep on the dryer it must have been warm. I managed to tell my mom it was there... she came over. That's when it woke up and looked at me... it ran, I screamed and ran upstairs. We opened a window for it to go out of... we're keeping the basement door closed for now.

Reliving it in my head is a bit scary...

Friday, December 26, 2008

Is the worst over?

The snow is starting to melt and I am ready to get out and about if possible.

Here are a few photos of breakfast yesterday. I still have to download the video of the bacon but that will come soon enough...





Yesterday I went for a walk in the slush and then we went over to my sister's house.

Here are a few pictures from my walk along Lake City Way.









Last night after dinner my momma drove me over to where I'm cat sitting so I could check on the cats and feed them. I will be heading over there today. That slush is a killer... getting my car to manuveur in it would have been nearly impossible. Hopefully enough of it will melt today that I can get out.

On my agenda today??? I think If there's enough drivable road I may go search for cycling shoes. I got some money from my dad for Christmas and I have cat sitting money.... I'm actually going to go to a cycle store to get them. I am also going to go to cycle class at 5:00 and that's it I think... I slept in this morning until 7:20... oh the good life.

I guess I should go now.... I may be back later.

Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas

Christmas is here... bacon and hashbrowns are in my tummy and IT'S STILL SNOWING! I wish it would stop. I have things to do... places to go.

I managed to sleep in until a bit past 8 this morning. Now that's an accomplishment.

Santa visited and brought me a new sweater and Tucker gave me some new PJ's. I'm thinking I might take a shower and take a walk around the neighborhood next... maybe Starbucks is open??? I know Walgreen's is but they don't sell americanos.

This afternoon there was a change of plans and I'm supposed to go to Bellevue - it was supposed to be happening last night but it didn't. I fell asleep on the sofa before 8 and was in bed by 10 I had a few dreams which included me driving in snow, having my car stolen, counseling at summer camp, and Ann Curry. It's a long dream story...

Today I am also supposed to be going to where I was supposed to house sit earlier in the week but couldn't. I hope I can make it this time. I don't have to really be anywhere until Saturday (Olympia)....

Have I told you lately that I don't like snow that much? I'm also not that much of a fan of the Holidays but I won't go into that and depress you all... I don't dislike them but they don't make my heart all warm and fuzzy inside.

Later on I will post the video of the bacon frying this morning... once I can download it from my camera.

Let's go and spread some holiday cheer!

Wednesday, December 24, 2008

It's a Christmas miracle!

Everything I was supposed to do tonight has been postponed or canceled. I don't really mind... it has been one long week.

It feels like I have worked 8 days straight... I got into work at the normal time and worked until 12:30 or so... I then managed to finish the majority of my Christmas shopping and made my way home. For the rest of the evening I am going to hang out with Stinky and go to bed early... tomorrow I might even sleep in until 8:00 if my body will let me. I took a bath tonight so I'm feeling a little less tense.

Mom is making carmel corn.... hmmm... yum!

Okay, I'm going to sign out now. Look out for Santa tonight.

I'm almost ready.

It's snowing again.

Yesterday was one of those days when you just don't stop. The past two days I have worked harder than a superior human being should... The office closes today at 2pm. I was supposed to go to my sister's house for dinner but that may be scrapped because I'm not going to drive in the snow if I don't have to. I will be driving tomorrow but I don't want to do it until I have to.

Over the past two days I have walked over 8 miles each day (on Monday I think I logged just under 12)...

I'm not done with my shopping - there just hasn't been time...

I have to get a move on now because who knows when a bus will come to pick me up...

Tuesday, December 23, 2008

I wish it would stop.

I like the snow and all but it severely puts a cramp in my style. I still have to finish up my shopping and I have no idea if I'm going to be able to get around on Christmas and Christmas Eve (did I tell you that I'm going to be a reader on Christmas Eve).

Last night I walked to the gym and did part of a cycle class, my core class and then I tried something new. Cardio Kick Boxing.. (it's Turbo Jam if you've ever done it) I must say I was lucky to have done Turbo Jam a few times at camp over the years so it wasn't too hard... I don't think that it will ever replace cycling though (too tough on my knees).

I am going to break down and get cycling shoes with my next paycheck... I think it will be better for my feet. I tend to get a cramp in my right foot when I'm cycling.

I think I might head out earlier than normal so I can get some stuff done at work. I ended up having to do the phones yesterday morning... you know how I love to do that!

Okay, I'm going to go now, really.

Monday, December 22, 2008

Decisions to make.

It's a mess outside. I'm thinking I will try to catch a bus if I can. I don't know how many people will be at work if I get there...

I am definitely not going to hurry in.

The house sitting gig is off until Christmas I think. That's a bit of a relief.

Last night I ended up going to bed at 8:30. I'm a lump. I also have to start pounding out the work... aye aye aye... artwork that is. If I'm having shows I better get on the ball.

Sunday, December 21, 2008

Updates and things.

Well, I drove to the gym this morning and worked out for about an hour and a half. I drove back home and that was it... no more driving for me. It's slippery out there and even with my new tires I'm not going to risk getting to my house sitting gig. I contacted the neighbors and they went over to feed the cats. The people I am going to be house sitting for didn't get their flight out today so they are back at the SeaTac Red Lion waiting for a flight tomorrow morning.

It can stop snowing now.

The storm (sort of) has past.

Well the "big storm" has come and gone... no one lost power. There's only a few more inches of snow... I'm supposed to start house/cat sitting for my favorite wayward cat Sammy. They house is down a big windy street by Carkeek Park (for those of you who live in Seattle)... in order to get to their house I will have to park on a back street and traverse the woods behind their house. I will have to do this at least a few times with a suitcase and other supplies in case I get snowed in...

My first priority however is THE GYM! I am going to either walk or drive very slowly and get my sweat on.

My legs are a bit sore today - I think it's because I walked in the snow yesterday... I am afraid that I have turned into one of those "gym people"... I just called. Cycling class has been canceled but the gym is open. I think I will attempt to walk there then.

After the gym I will pack a few things and try to get to my Sammy... that is assuming that Sammy's mom and dad get their flight out to Florida...

Jim Foreman is currently reporting from West Seattle... He encourages people not to turn left through the big piles of snow in the center of the streets... this is riveting television... thanks Jim.

Saturday, December 20, 2008

relief...

I gained over 2 pounds, I bought some Christmas presents and I went to the gym. At least that was a good thing... they are saying that there is going to be a major storm hitting this afternoon and tonight. Maybe I should get out and stock up on movies or something...

man, my ass is getting bigger...

Snow Day!

so... my sisters holiday party has been postponed so I don't have to watch my nephews today.

I am going to attempt to get to my ww meeting this morning. I have to allow time for my car to defrost...

I am watching the Today show and they are making brussell sprouts - they look kind of good.

If I get my act together I might try to finish up my Christmas shopping - not that I have any idea of what I'm getting anyone...

I guess I should move and get bundled up...

Friday, December 19, 2008

Accidents will happen...

I accidentally posted to Jeneratorrunning this morning instead of the Rant.

I cut and pasted it so you can see what I wrote...

I don't think I've eaten a vegetable since Wednesday night.... I'm going to hell.

Should I stay or should I go now???

In the immortal words of the Clash I am not sure if I should stay or go. Ahhh... I'll go. I'm a trooper.

Last night I ended up making some Chex Mix and hanging out with my dog... I also watched the finale of Celebrity Rehab. I was pleased to see that there is a new show on called Sober House. This is where we get to follow those celebrities as they go to a sober living house. I'm not sure why I am so drawn to these shows... maybe because it shows a side of life that I'm not used to... or I like to watch Celebrities cry.

Hmmmm... there's supposed to be more bad weather this weekend. I was supposed to watch my nephews tomorrow night but with the weather I might not have to.

I'm feeling a bit cycle deprived... I haven't done it since Wednesday morning...

Oh, I need to actually do some Christmas shopping too... hmmm...

That's all I've got this morning.

Thursday, December 18, 2008

Nothing better than some retail therapy on a snow day!

I made it into work a bit early... We got to leave early and luckily I didn't have a problem catching a bus to get home... I did manage to buy myself a nice new down coat on my lunch break!!!

Yippy skippy....

I have to say Metro buses have to make up for a bad day of service... they suck right now... they should have been better prepared.

Also - stupid people need to not sled where traffic is wizzing by... don't they remember Karen Maleng??? dumb a$$es... okay - I'm done ranting....

Let me see...

What should I talk about this morning... it's snowing outside and I can't stick around long - I am going to head into work a bit early so I can make a good impression.

I sometimes wish I could be that sort of employee that just doesn't even bother coming in when it gets (in the words of Jim Foreman) treacherous.

Last night my friend Ken stopped by with a basket of carbs for my mom and me... what a nice gift (I think)...

I'm thinking maybe I should just suck it up and get ready to go.

Wednesday, December 17, 2008

Say goodbye to underarm waddle...

Tonight I received my Anti-cellulite Sleeves in the mail.

I think I will start a blog to chronicle weather or not they work... I have to get out the measuring tape and camera to document my progress.

It's snowing outside... The cycle class I had signed up for tonight has been canceled... my dad's birthday dinner has been canceled... I guess I'll just hang out tonight. It's been a while since I've done that.

I'll let you know how the anti cellulite sleeves work out.

sorry I'm late...

I went to the gym this morning and didn't get a chance to post before I left....

Things to think about and discuss later...

The attire of office professionals when it snows... or is likely to snow.

Vitamins (and why they make me want to barf)...

My dad's 82nd birthday.

Co-workers lack of effort in getting to work when it snows... (or is likely to snow).

discuss amongst yourselves...

also on the horizon... I need to find a place to wear my "almost slutty" dress.

Tuesday, December 16, 2008

Should I be nervous?

This morning I started thinking about my solo show in February. I have to get a move on and figure out what I'm doing. I have a few ideas but I should probably flesh them out a bit.

Right now it's 22 degrees according to King 5 news. That's cold, but it could be colder... I am happy to report that my hair survived the cold ness-yesterday... This snow bunny wants to have cute hair at all times.

You might recall that I had a crown put on last week. Yesterday I had a few bouts with severe tooth pain... I ended up taking heavy duty drugs to help... Hopefully I won't have any problems today. You might recall when I was back in Chicago I had to have a root canal - back then I didn't have any heavy duty drugs and I was suffering.

Okay, a few last notes - tonight the Biggest Loser finale is on and then last night the person who schedules the fitness classes at the gym told me yesterday that she wants to talk to me. I have a feeling that they might ask me if I want to teach cycle classes. I don't know if I have written that here but I might do it (if that's what they want of me). I don't know what it pays (I don't think it really matters)... and I don't know if I'd be any good at it (of course I would)... I think I could make artwork out of it.

Here's an idea for all of you looking for holiday craft project...



Okay, that's all I've got this morning.

Monday, December 15, 2008

This will be quick.

It's cold outside and I need to bundle up before I head out.

It sort of reminds me of Chicago so I don't mind too much. My hair will be a mess by the time I get to work but I'm okay with that. I will make it to work and that's the point. I am sure there will be people who don't even try. I have always had some problems with people who don't even try to come in. My momma told me you just start a little bit earlier. If it were dangerous I would not come in - but the streets are dry where I am so I have no excuse.

Okay, I suppose I should get a move on because I have to put on my long underwear and gloves (in addition to my other clothing).

Sunday, December 14, 2008

Snow.

It snowed a bit last night. I was going to run in the Jingle Bell run this morning but the lure of coffee, a warm dog and a laptop won me over...

Yesterday I ventured out to Olympia to celebrate my nephew's 5th birthday. I don't know what was more exhausting the party or driving my father down there and back in his car? I don't think anyone else has ever mentioned the consistency of the pressure of my foot on the accelerator. I just smile and nod my head.

Today I am looking forward to trying to get to the gym and then decorating the Christmas tree... then tonight there's (drum roll lease!!!)

SURVIVOR SEASON FINALE!

I am thinking I would like Kenny or Bob to win. I'm not that emotionally invested in it so whoever wins will be fine with me.

Okay, it's time for me to look at the ads that came in the newspaper this morning... I might find something I need.

Saturday, December 13, 2008

I heart having a paycheck.

I logged onto my banks website this morning and was surprised to find a holiday bonus was deposited in my account.

I enjoy a full time job with benefits and perks...

Today I have to do many things... I will get them all done and then I'll come home and go to bed....

I think I had a dream last night that a cute boy asked me for my phone number... maybe it was foreshadowing something... I'll cross my fingers.

I have to run. Many things to do (including lip waxing)...

Friday, December 12, 2008

I am ready for greatness.

I didn't drink too much. I didn't fall down in my big lady shoes. I didn't make a fool of myself AND I was home by 9pm.

The office luncheon went well. I will give you all more details tomorrow. I think I need to go to bed soon.

Par-Tay!

Today is the holiday luncheon at work. I tried on both the dresses I have last night and I must say the almost slutty one looks pretty good. My 40 plus year old cleavage looks pretty good (even with some faded stretch marks)! I bought real panty hose and I have my big lady shoes so I'm ready to go. The plan is to not drink a lot so I can survey the scene and not be part of it. There is assigned seating so hopefully I won't embarrass myself in front of anyone.

The party is over at 4 so If I play my cards right I can get back to cycling class at 5.
That's assuming I haven't overdone it at the party.

Tomorrow we are having a holiday potluck after our ww meeting. I haven't had time to figure out what I'm going to bring... After the potluck I have cycling, my lip and brow wax and then my nephew Max's birthday party. Sunday I have agreed to run in the Jingle Bell Run. I think after that I will collapse in a big heap of goo on the floor.

I should get moving. I have to shower and smell good because you never know who I might be sitting next to at the party.

Thursday, December 11, 2008

Slutty??? I don't think so.

Last night I took my mother to Marie Calendars for dinner... okay, considering we had a certificate for a free dinner I only had to pay for the tip. I am happy to report that the service was much better than the last time. I am going to have to let them know... they probably only hear about when things are bad.

On the way home I made my mother stop at JC Penney's to look at dresses. I had tried on a dress about a week ago and wanted to see what it looked like again and get a second opinion. It was really cute but the zipper was coming apart and there was a minor repair that needed to be done on one of the shoulders. That kind of sucked so I kept trying on dresses. I tried on a sleeveless little number with a bit of beading that was marked down half price.... it shows off the girls very well. I decided to buy it even though I probably won't wear it tomorrow at the party. I think my cleavage might cause a stir. Not a bad stir though... My mom decided to see if she could get a deal on the other dress... I continued on to shoes (love shoes!)... when I got done buying shoes I found my mom and she had managed to get the other dress for $11.00 (originally $100).

What a deal.

I think I will wear the first dress which has now been repaired... and my new big lady shoes.

Oh, how I wish I could wear the not too slutty dress though...

Wednesday, December 10, 2008

I bet you thought I wasn't going to post did you?

The reason this post is so late this morning is because I decided to take a cycle class at 5:45 am this morning.

I know, you're probably saying to yourself "doesn't she cycle on Tuesday nights at well?" the answer to that question is "yes". I'm just going to see how it goes... I may be more energized throughout the day or I may crash around noon.

I will keep you updated. Now I have to go eat my english muffin with skinny cow cheese and fake sausage. Yummy yummy!

Tuesday, December 09, 2008

Here's a question...

I need someone to find out if I can get a heart rate monitor that can send its signal via wifi (or telepathically or whatever)... I need one that will do that please...

I also want to know why I crave salty food almost all the time......

And why Rob Blagojevich is so dumb???

Am I ? I am.

I am tired... I went to bed at 9:15 and was pretty much out like a light. There's been a cold going around work and I hope I'm not trying to get it.

My big dilemma today (after getting my crown at the dentist) is determining what I'm going to wear to the holiday luncheon on Friday. I want to look cute, but I don't want to look too slutty. Fashion forward, not stuck in the 90's. There's a fine line to be walked here and I don't want to go into the forbidden zone.

I have a dog on my lap right now... she's pretty cute. There's been talk of getting her a little sister... that would be fun. I'll keep you updated on all that.

I guess that's all I've got. I remember when I used to be witty and opinionated more often... maybe things will get back to their old selves in the new year.

Monday, December 08, 2008

A good looking dog (that's not mine)...



This is Weezy. She belongs to my friend Diana. She likes to hang out in the gallery every once in a while.

This morning I am going to try something different. I'm going to try to take a shower a bit earlier and then let my hair air dry for a few minutes before I do anything else. It's a new strategy in order to achieve the perfect hair. Okay, semi-perfect hair. At this age I just want to look presentable.

Yesterday I pretty much just slugged around. I did go to the gym (and I smiled at Arms) and then I watched a Hallmark Channel movie... then I watched the Seahawks lose. That was thrilling - not. I did manage to get some birthday shopping done for my nephew Max.

This week is I have the following events to look forward to...

Weight Watchers is starting a new program called Momentum.
Holiday lunch for the office.
Cycling class(es).
Holiday potluck with my ww buddies.
Birthday Party for nephew.
Lip and Brow Waxing.

It looks like it's going to be a full week.

Sunday, December 07, 2008

Post number 1,500.

Can you believe that I've done that many posts? I can't.... it's been a long haul. I wonder if I could give up the posting? Maybe I will try for a few days sometime and see how it goes.

Last night's opening went well. People liked my work and I'm glad it's finally out there in some form. Now I can be done with it unless someone decides to show it elsewhere.

What else... My friends Malyn and Kyle came to the opening last night which was nice (my momma came too)... I also found out yesterday that my first ceramics instructor donated money to the fundraiser... that makes me feel better, realizing that some of my people pulled through.

Today I am going to go to the gym and then there is a gift tag making party I might go to... Maybe I will attempt to clean something in my room. That could be interesting.

I'll let you know how it all goes later on.

Saturday, December 06, 2008

hello.

It's Saturday (I almost typed Sunday there but that's jumping the gun a bit...).

I've already managed to go to ww, Target, the gym and take a shower and eat about 10 cookies that were made for the opening tonight. I still have a little left to install but I think for the most part I'm done. I don't really care anymore. at least not right at this minute....

Maybe I should take a nap... I have a little less than four hours until I have to be there...

Today's post is sucking the big ween but that's okay. Tomorrow I promise to do better.

Friday, December 05, 2008

Don't tell me anything....

I managed to not find out who was voted out on Survivor last night... Hopefully they will post the episode online before I can find out who got the axe.

Last night I started to install and then came to the realization that we had to revamp the whole thing... so guess what I'm doing tonight after work? That's right, re-installation. Hopefully it will only take about four hours and I can be home by 9 or 10... I'm not counting on anything though.

I'm showing my Ann stuff and then I think I'll be done with it until I have my retrospective at the Whitney. Who knows? Maybe I'll sell something.

I am tired... I think I may sleep in on Sunday...

I should probably move so I can have enough energy to get everything done.

Thursday, December 04, 2008

The weird thing...

I think I've mentioned this before but it seems like everyone has been joining Facebook all of a sudden and now I am faced with photos of me from the 80's and 90's... YIKES.

Not that I'm too embarrassed because it is all a part of my history but still... it makes me take a deep breath every once in a while.

Take a look at this...



Aye aye aye...


I must have been tired or something... I still get that look on my face every once in a while...

Gotta love that femullet. That's also back in the day when the girls were bigger.... I must confess that I don't miss them one bit. I love the girls now and they love me.

Tonight we're installing the Current Works Show at Crawl Space. I feel a bit bad because my work is not necessarily current... maybe we should call it a recent works show... I have started working on new stuff finally... I'm starting to flesh it all out... I'm going to work on applying for Survivor. I've got my friends working on my audition tape and if I get on and win I won't have to worry about working for a living, I can just make art and be on other reality television shows such as Celebrity Rehab. Just to clarify I'm going to make the application process into art.

It's like the Ann project, I'll figure out the art later. I just need to do what I want to do and I want to be famous and be on television.

Okay, I guess I should wrap it up. If you hadn't guessed I'm feeling better today... it was a bit sketchy for a few days there...

Wednesday, December 03, 2008

Try to remain calm.

Last night I got a schedule for my upcoming show in February. It didn't really freak me out too much, but it reinforces the fact that I am torn between my two worlds, the making money world and the making art world.

The feeling of being inadequate pops in my head as well... I know I'm not. I wouldn't have gone to school where I did if I wasn't any good...

It's just hard.

Here are photos from my hair cut last night... I took my new camera so that my friend Nancy could have documentation of her masterpiece.

My hair was styled in three separate looks.

I'm calling this the Bo Peep look...



The regular everyday look....



The conservative look (although I don't think it's really conservative...).



There is still time to get in there for your holiday haircut. I have cards for a discount and I can win the referral contest.

Tuesday, December 02, 2008

Things that are making me cranky.

I just wonder if I should give up my career goals??? I know that the answer is no but it seems very tempting. I would just like to go crawl in a hole right now and not come out ever.

I just don't feel good enough sometimes... now is one of them.

Your photo selection of the day.

My feet...





My dog....



I think my dog is cuter. My feet can be cute with the proper treatment.... and some waxing of the toes...

This week is going to mess up my television viewing... this being an artist who loves television is hard... you find a lot of artists out there who don't have televisions and I think that is crazy... who doesn't like to escape reality for a little while?

Anyways, the installation of the current works show interferes with Survivor, the Office and Celebrity Rehab.... at least Celebrity Rehab will have a bunch of repeats...

Tonight I am getting the hair done, I'm beginning to get that telltale grey stripe at the roots. Oye - the traumas of getting on in years.

Oh, yesterday I saw a youngish looking girl wearing a nice white shirt with an uber short vest over it that looked like a bra. IT WAS HORRIBLE! People - snap out of these bad fashion mistakes! Stacy London and Clinton Kelly would be appalled and throw you out with the trash.

Lord love a duck....

It has been one long day. As I was blogging earlier I forgot to set my television to come one in the morning so I slept in.

It's been an interesting day... I've had an idea to do something on New Year's Eve but everyone I know already has plans... so I guess I'll just go to bed at 10 like I normally do.

Then there's the current works show at Crawl Space on Saturday... none of my current work will be ready by then... it sucks to be a fraud. The only really good news today is that my new pink camera arrived and my friend Shirley is back at work.

Oh, did you hear we're in a recession??

I also ate too many veggies for lunch so I'm a bit gassy. Maybe I should just hang it up for the night.

just in case you were wondering...

I forgot to set the alarm this morning and didn't get to post.
Remind me to talk about vests that look like bras and annoying people....

More tonight.
