Been working at reordering the site, and tidying the house. Regrettably my desktop computer is hiccuping like a vaudeville comedian, and I can’t quite diagnose the problem. It’s about five years old, which I know is ancient computer-wise, but I wasn’t really looking to replace it this year. Now, however, I start to think about… Continue Reading

Letting it go…
Two new drawings this evening. When you have no chores left, you have to make art. And yesterday was , as you might have guessed, about cleaning. Now it’s down to sorting through papers, notably correspondence, piles of personal and business letters that date back to the seventies, half finished collages, fragments of writing. It’s… Continue Reading
Five already?
You stay away from the office long enough and when you return, it’s like a whirlwind strikes: so much to take care of! And the computer is both the source of work and befuddlement. You get things done on it, but it also offers distraction after distraction. I feel like I’m batting around .500 in… Continue Reading
It’s all fun ’til the mop breaks…
It’s been a big week for going out with friends, and reconnecting with the past.

Wednesday and Thursday… Continue Reading

I’m here forging ahead with the endless… Continue Reading
I love my scanner (again)
An image that’s part of a project from 1987. I’ve had my new scanner for almost ten months, but I’ve neglected to test out the negative scanner until today. I unearthed the negs as part of the next phase of cleaning (stop sorting things into piles and go through those piles and evaluate stuff). I… Continue Reading

They cleaned my clock…
Despite wining a few hands, I got my ass handed to me today at the poker table. We don’t play high stakes but I ended the day down thirteen bucks on a table with a ten dollar buy-in. Of course the real point is companionship and being around hot folks smoking cigars, so it was… Continue Reading
Rocky Road…
Rough Monday, but not for the usual reasons. Wandering from mess to mess in my house, which happens when I’m at home enough consecutive days to build up the momentum to clean, made me realize just how bad the cluttering has gotten in the past year. At one point I discovered a major mess that… Continue Reading
