a random, sleepy, unsuccessful catch-up entry
Urg. It is now officially Thursday, I'm very cold, and I'd really like to go to sleep. But instead, I'm sitting here at my computer. Why? Actually, I do not know. I have things to do, school things and personal things both, but I'm not doing them. I'm stuck, and static, and stagnant, and all those other "s" words that make you think of molded-over water and piles of brown, mushy leaves. I'm unmotivated but very stressed, and it's interesting how the two can create such an incredible feeling of manic ennui when so directly juxtaposed.
Come November 17th, Adam and I will be celebrating our 3-year anniversary. His real present in on its way, and will hopefully be in my hot little hands by tomorrow afternoon. I'm also attempting to make him some stuff, which isn't working out as well as I'd like. Due to time constraints and lack of skill and/or creative drive, the ideas that were so fun in my head are turning out to be fairly unspectacular once executed. I only have until Monday to turn them into the grand and impressive specimens that I imaged them to be, and considering my schedule (chock full o' class and work and quality time with the boy - though that last one is light years above the first two, of course) I have doubts about the feasibility of all this. Le sigh. There's just never enough time.
We had our first nude model in Drawing today. A nude male model, at that. Everyone was all nervous, which I don't really get. It's a naked person. It's not like we're drawing porn stars going at it or something... meh. No big. It was much more interesting than most of the things we've done so far, though, so I shan't complain further.
Anyway, kids, I need to get off to bed. I get to pour 1,500-degree molten aluminum tomorrow in 3D... wish me luck and intact digits.
