Back in the Studio! Whoop!!

In your life as a teacher, do you ever think that you lose a little bit of your life force with every 6 AM alarm? Do you ever wonder if you really are the terrible person your students say you are while crying and gnashing their teeth? Do you ever question your need to own a house each time the vice president of the college needs to talk to you about a student’s lost notebook?

No?

Nah, me either.

Having said that, I would like to announce that I am officially on summer break. This is the most beautiful time of the year because my child is still in school and he doesn’t know that I don’t have to be at work for the next three weeks.

And what a prolific three weeks it’s gonna be! I am trying to set the lofty goal of cranking out a painting a day. How’s that going for me right now? Well, no painting yet but it’s not even lunch time. And speaking of lunch, I think I’ll stock the freezer with frozen pizzas. Anywho, I do have two paintings from earlier this week that I am dang proud of.

In these next three weeks, I plan to neglect my need for a personal hygiene and nutritious food in lieu of getting to do whatever the hell I want to. And what I want to do is paint, paint, paint!
