I really didn't expect to be such a cat lover but Raoul has turned out to be a great friend. The little furry face you see in this picture is what I wake up to every morning, usually purring. He's pretty good about not getting all up in my business in the mornings but he does let it be known that it is feeding time. With the occasional shove off of the bed and a 'Dude, knock it off!' he mostly let's me go back to sleep until I'm ready to get up.
Cats. Jesus, who knew?
Go figure...
I don't have much to say except I'm goddamn glad to take a break for awhile. I decided to take a ceramics class this summer. What the shit ya know?!? I have the tuition waiver and I figure I should try to have a little fun while I'm in school. I miss working with my hands (typing and clicking a mouse don't count) and I'm hoping that it may rekindle some sort of passion for art. A feeling I'm afraid I lost awhile back.
I used to always have at least one artistic avenue be it photography or playing music, somewhere along the way I must have forgotten how important it is to me. How did I let that happen to me? (At this point I feel like saying 'How did I let a lot of things happen to me', but I'm getting fucking tired of being that guy so let's not go there. M'kaaaay)
So pottery it is. I've always been interested in throwing pots, it's very physical and the end result is something useful (maybe , maybe not.)
...well not really, considering my impending summer school schedule. I have waffled back and forth on what classes to take (if any) and have finally decided to get 570, the research methods core class out of the way. Whatever.
I totally ran out of steam this quarter. Between getting a divorce and generally feeling pretty apathetic towards school I'm considering not going back next spring. I'm only considering tho, just a thought. I would be stupid to have gone this far, in the best possible scenario, to not finish.
I'm just fucking tired all the time. All I want to do (on the short break I have between sessions) is sleep. Sleep for days and not get out of bed and have my cat sitting next to me purring.
