Gray, dirty snow, chill with humidity.\u00a0 A dull, gray day as my Aunt Roberta used to say.<\/p>\n
This morning I looked at my calendar, the stuff that March requires of me.\u00a0 It looks ok, doable.\u00a0 That’s thanks to writing a sermon, my workshop for the Woolly retreat and a presentation on the strange place of religion in contemporary art for the docent book club before leaving for vacation.\u00a0 A good move.<\/p>\n
Deadlines do not stimulate me, unless they are a long way off.\u00a0 I can finish tasks well before they’re needed, but as time gets closer, I get frustrated and willing to put up with whatever to get stuff done.\u00a0 Not a recipe for my best work and I like to do my best work.<\/p>\n
The blog presents an interesting quandry in that regard.\u00a0 By its nature the blog is better fresh and without edits.\u00a0 It’s more like speech than writing.\u00a0 Still, over half the time I run spell check and go back over the entry after it’s written, just to check.\u00a0 Even if errors sneak through, I’m ok wid dat.\u00a0 It’s a blog, not War and Peace.<\/p>\n
Seem rested, but still undermotivated.\u00a0 A trip into the MIA should help tomorrow.\u00a0 There’s a continuuing event and I can check Matt Welch’s lecture on the Weber exhibit.\u00a0 After going on a few tours next week I want to start touring that exhibit the second week in March.\u00a0 I’ve also picked up a China tour later in March that should be fun.<\/p>\n
By tomorrow or the next day, I’ll be back in the Aeron and ready to write.\u00a0I still have mail to go through, but that’s about it as far as vacation-related catch up I have to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
