here it is

so, I'll be adding to these, and talking about them.

There are several in OKC that i need to get pictures of and add.  

I know they are crazy and weird, so if for some reason you look at them, don't feel bad for not liking them, b/c besides being crazy they are also not spectacularly genius or anything.  Ok.  

painting

I'm tired of painting things that look like things other people have already painted.

and I think I'm going to create a "picassa" of my paintings so I can talk about them and it can be known what i'm referring to. and...even though it is a frustrating process AND I like and don't like most of what is already finished, there are a few few few things that could be picturized.

("few few few" is to be considered in fraction exponentials)

You Tube of the Day

I Just Called to Say "I Love You"

s. wonder

No New Year's Day, to celebrate

No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away

No first of Spring, no song to sing

In fact, here's just another ordinary day

No April rain, no flowers bloom

No wedding Saturday within the month of June

But what it is, is something true

Made up of these three words that I must say to you

I just called to say, "I love you"

I just called to say how much I care

I just called to say, "I love you"

And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

No summer's high, no warm July

No harvest moon to light one tender August night

No Autumn breeze, no falling leaves

Not even time for birds to fly to Southern skies

No Libra sun, no Halloween

No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring

But what it is, though old so new

To fill your heart like no three words could ever do

I just called to say, "I love you"

I just called to say how much I care

I just called to say, "I love you"

And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

Morning Person

I googled "morning person" hoping to find a definition/ article that would quickly and succinctly answer my question, but there isn't one...not even a wikipedia article!  the only articles are about whether you ARE a morning person, "take this 10 question quiz!"  or how to become a morning person "10 easy steps!"  This is not what I want to know.  What I want to know is:  does being a morning person only mean that you like to/ can wake up early in the morning?  (the common understanding) OR can it also mean, when you wake up in the morning, you are focused and energized?

This comes from something I have noticed about myself this semester.  When I wake up, which I will admit has become a disturbing 7:30/ 8:00 even on a Saturday (note specifically today...) I am energized, ambitious, focused.  The list of things I need/want to do rushes through my head, I'm undaunted, I'm excited.

One possible theory for this is that nothing has happened, there has been no interference yet, nothing to unfocus me.  My mind is clear.  I say this specifically related to studying.  For example, this morning I woke up wanting, repeat: WANTING to read Civ Pro.  I want to get on it.  Knock it out.  

So, maybe this has nothing to do with being a morning "person" and has more to do with the nature of the morning.  

(last night's painting went well-ish.  I fixed the background of a thing, worked on the face of that one...and I like all that.  I did a small thing/ portrait thingy that I have issue with.  i may change it.  One thing I have noticed...i paint younger people...i don't paint old faces...it makes sense, but I would like to paint old faces, they have so much character.  Young faces are without wrinkles and sags.  But I find that I paint the stress, guilt, pain into these young faces, which may be part of the statement/ message I want to make.)

love to all today
