Good morning, ta da -- the final drawing, a self portrait. i think it's pretty good, but can see areas of improvement. last night i dragged out all the drawing books i have collected over the years. i am going to take them to london so i can study and practice. i feel very excited and energized by my course. it was a pinnacle experience. the not so good news is that i braved the scale this morning and it's much worse than i could have imagined (although if i'm honest, my pants had been feeling a little odd for the past few weeks, the waist band seemed to have moved from its original position and was uncomfortably pushing into my stomach whenever i sat down). so, no more excuses. diet and exercise routine starts today. don't worry, this is not going to become a weight loss blog, but a healthy body is necessary for a healthy mind. all systems need to be running optimally for creativity to flourish. and in other news, i am apparently going back to work for a little while -- um, in a cubicle. so, that's an interesting turn of events. i'm sort of giddily thrilled by the irony of it all. but, the honest truth is that i still feel more in control of my life than i did before, i can say no to anything i don't want to do and that is the definition of freedom. ok, off to start my day. lots to do before i get on that plane tonight.
