system working overtime

i was so clumsy today…. and I’m suffering the wounds for it. I pulled a muscle in my arm today which makes it hard to carry things. I bonked my head on the big press today, i cracked and cut open my knuckle on the little press, i tripped UP the stairs on the way to lunch and stumbled on the last two coming down. I got ink all over my pink shirt on my left boob, dropped a fully inked copper plate into my lap (i had on an apron). I leaned into my yellow ink which left a HUGE stripe across my tummy…. sigh… can this day just be over?

My life drawing teacher was sick today so we didn’t have drawing which means i had the entire day to print. it was awesome. I got the background done for my next print. I think it will be nice. I have 3 printing projects to complete before the end of the term.

I’ve been side tracked for the last couple days. There is a lot going through my mind. I’m trying to figure something out in my head that just isn’t figuring. I don’t know how to ‘process’ it…. I don’t know how to trust it. All i know is that it has created a lot of sadness for me for many years- and it shouldn’t. It should make me happy. It makes other people happy. Why can’t I have that happiness? Why do I get hurt by it- then have to ‘get over’ it? Can’t it just be hurt free and enjoyable? sigh……

Oh I almost forgot- I’m going to be in the school newspaper on Friday. At least I think it’s the school newspaper. Some girl from THe Advocate interviewed and took pictures of me today for the student art show. The piece will be on 3 artists. When I told Mick he searched for The Advocate and it said it was a gay/lesbian/bisexual/just out paper. Oh well, I’m not picky on fame. So what if the girls on campus start buying me lunch and checking out my package. Could be MUCH worse!

Gotta take care of Thomas wart
