I've been lurking around livejournal reading posts of people I never run into outside of the internet world save for a couple occasions, never really feeling the need to post about myself. Which is still the case, but I thought I'd check in today to say hi.
This is most likely because I've been painting and it is not quite happening as I'd envisioned, so I am getting out a new canvas. This always means that I spend a good amount of time checking every website I've ever enjoyed, or not, writing to people I haven't talked to in a long time and any stupid little task I've been putting off. I'm procrastinating like a madwoman. I suspect this is because I paint with my emotions more often than not and I am avoiding doing just that, though I know the process will be enriching in itself.
I'm starting to get excited about going back to school this semester, especially art classes. It will force me to finish what I start, or to start at all.
All in all I'm feeling creative, and when I feel creative I feel alive despite any moods I am experiencing. I hope to have something to show for it this time 'round.
Now if I can just get my eyes away from the damned computer screen...
