Don't Fight It

It happened....

I got sick. I was doing everything not to. Staying away from people. Staying away from known suspects with it. But somehow, some way a stray sick bullet hit me and struck me down. Let me preface by saying that I HATE BEING SICK. You are thinking WHO DOESN'T? But it really bothers me to the NTH DEGREE more than most because I can't stand NOT BEING PRODUCTIVE and laying around being lazy. However I do know that when it gets you, it has you and you can't fight it any longer...it's off to bed with you, hot tea and broth and all that crap.
This one is mainly affecting my bronchial and throat region and no sinus stuff (IM SO THANKFUL!) so I'm thinking it's bronchitis, strep or just a really bad sore throat. It hurts to swallow and I've given up on talking. I whisper which doesn't agitate my throat as much. Talking sends me into coughing fits. It's been Nyquil , Nyquil, Nyquil over here. Just conk me out and let me be comatose through this.
I also have a tendency to get really pissy when I'm sick. I have zero tolerance for stupid stuff. I also get really annoyed if I found out a friend knowingly was sick and hung around me endangering my health. If you're sick please stay home, that's not the time to be out partying and giving it to all your friends like party favors. Jerk.
It's mainly because I'm self employed and can't afford to miss days of not working on stuff and especially right now. Forgive. Did I tell you I hate being sick?
I tried to be productive from my bed yesterday and started messing around with Wix. Here's a little website I built, still needs some tweaking but I'm liking the easy way you can customize everything through Wix. So much better than Yahoo Sitebuilder which I know ZERO about and can't even make my own banner. Give it a look and any feedback is welcome:

Best thing is it's FREE! 
So that's what I've done besides make a rad Frank Zappa light up record 
Here's to your health! Don't catch it! RUN!!!!

Words!

  Hello! I haven't blogged since last year. Even writing the word "blog" felt foreign and weird! I have actually been writing stuff on my Patreon account so if you've missed the updates you can sign up for free over there. There is also an option to pay a few dollars a month to help support me as an artist and get "extra" content- in case you are of that mindset and either way- thank you for caring about the art adventures.  I have missed blogging actually. I guess I like to make words, string them together like a pretty necklace and let them live their own expressive life wrapped around me.  Times are different. Times are weird! But I guess you know that. And also times are the same and as old as time. Is it really more terrible than any other time or are we humans just more "connected" to the propaganda and daily bad trip in a way that is insane and unhealthy? Either way I do my best to keep my sanity and I don't believe about 98% of what I s...

Addicted

  Well it's official. I am addicted. Luckily to nothing horrible. It was bound to happen. I'm addicted to the morning walk...the endorphins...the serotonin...the "me" time....the solitude....the music pumping in my ears...the nature I see and feeling like I control my day.  I'm usually up before the sun and getting as much mileage as my body allows. Sometimes it's more than others but it's always good. I'm going to add in more sprints here and there as "burst" exercises are better for me than long running sessions.  Yes, even on the weekends I'm out doing it. There is no sleeping in and admittedly I woke up at 2:30am and started having my morning coffee in preparation... Even though I will wait till much later to go out. That's how I know it's an addiction.  Currently on Week 6 and haven't missed a workout or even postponed it. I showed up for myself and made myself a priority every morning. I am proud of that and so much LESS...

Everything in it's place

One of photographer Franks Lopez's vintage cameras Last week was a whirlwind of deadlines, bus trips and fun...all culminating in an art show on Saturday night and two glasses of celebratory wine for all my efforts. I had set a goal for three new vinyl works  to be done in about a week and actually made that happen (actually make that 4!). Normally 3 new vinyl pieces would be nothing for me to do in a week but I had challenged myself to work outside my realm of expertise and delve into the world of LED lights, epoxy, drills, bolts and other fascinating construction. The end result is that I can now push my vinyl creations further - the finished piece was well received! Sales were made and sales are pending and a whole new crowd has been exposed to my work. YAY!  I found myself modeling for local photographer Frank Lopez last week and was thrilled because I like his work very much. He was doing "tintypes" and I got to see the whole process in action as well as ex...
