fury averted
Update:
I took care of all the aforementioned room issues and talked to my old roommate on the phone. At 7pm Monday night he dropped off a new light fixture and gave me $20. Now that is arguably less $ than I could have gotten out of this situation, but I'm not trying to make a profit - I just didn't want the cleaning supply/paint and spackle money to come out of my own pocket and to feel like I got the short end of the stick. I guess I got the somewhat stubby but better than nothing end.
And I didn't have to unleash the fury, which no one wants. Although its been building up and someone might get it, hopefully not the mailman or supermarket check-out person. I think I need some outlet for positive release right now. As cliche as it sounds, I should go somewhere alone and just dance it off into the darkest hours of the night. I'm thinking Industrial.
Anyway, I have to find an image to use for a painting class portrait assignment that is; not someone I am close to, not a relative, not someone famous, not a model, not in an advertisement, not a copyrighted image, not a well-known photographer's, not over-used, and is black and white with heavy shadows on the face. Exactly what options does that leave?! Sheesh. I've been looking online but its taking me way to long since I'm also trying to keep in mind that is should be an image I *want* to paint. I might just cheat.
