Welcome to my blog!

I never thought I would ever have one of these. Perhaps I still won't. I always thought that I would never have enough time to post anything (I am a certifiable workaholic), and that if I did manage to, that nobody would bother to read it. But lately I have been interested to read the blogs of others, and they seem to be having so much FUN at it!

So here goes...

Here is what I would like to do with this. I am an artist. I get paid to see the world, process what I see, and relay that information in different ways. Sometimes I see things that seem truly amazing, things that seem to fit into the bigger picture in ways I'd never noticed before. When that happens, I want to tell somebody. I want to record it forever, becuase it is fleeting. It's like what Jane Siberry sings of on her album The Speckless Sky: "...he wants to write something down, he wants to sing a song or paint something..." Well, here is where I will write it down, and if I happen to paint something--I'll post it too. (Trust me--you don't want to hear me sing...)

So herein you will find bits of philosophy, assorted imagery, the ocassional rant, and hopefully lots of humor. (Always remember this: I'm not being silly. It's the world that's silly. I'm just being observant.) I'll try to avoid the mundane stuff. I mean, I could fill volumes with entries like "Ugh. I just got home. I worked my *** off today. I'm beat. I think I'll ZZZzzzzz" Yuck.

So if you feel like reading along, welcome to my head! If it's not your cup of tea, then thanks for at least checking it out, and feel free to grab some Triscuits(R) on your way out. In the end it may just be me having the memoirs I thought I might someday write, so that I can look back over my life and see just what a silly person I was.

"hope you have your camera
hope you have some paper
because if no one gets this down
then it's gone forever"
