glue fixes everything

I really wish I had some glue. Maybe I'll go buy some. Then I could just work on one of my many artistic projects all day and listen to good music.

I think I'd enjoy that. Or maybe I'm just in one of those moods I get in so often where I have these huge artistic upwellings that go nowhere because I lack a medium that I am fluent enough in to create off the top of my head. With the possible exception of drumming.

I want to run around taking pictures, or write a song, or make art, or webpages, but I can't do any of it well enough, or fast enough, or right now enough. So I'm frustrated.

Do you know what the problem is? It's the tantalizing nature of days off. Since today's a vacation day, I feel I have to validate it by doing something great. If all I did today was read or sleep or eat, then why be on vacation, I ask myself.

That's why weeknights are so cool - I expect to get nothing much done, so when I do, it's a bonus of sorts. Expectations. What a bummer.
