Hmmmm....

I hate mornings. Why? Because everything becomes clearer than it was at night. All of a sudden my drawings that I did yesterday, half bleary-eyed but excited to no end, are crap. No, really. If I squint, they just might be passable, but dammit, they're crap! I have ideas on how to improve them, but this isn't fair. Went to bed finally content from having overcome major artist's block and drawn my boys once again (in case anyone is wondering, 'tis Moony and Padfoot, my wonderful, luverly, gay as sin - it can happen, dammit! - boys from Harry Potter and The Faithful Canines... (What? I can't make up book titles? Damn.))

You see, kissing is an extremely difficult pose to capture. In one of my pictures, Sirius is standing and we see his profile, and Remus has come up to him from the side, almost, and started kissing him. Sirius is cupping his face. But it looks weird. I don't know how to do it. My damn VCR doesn't have its remote (I haven't ever seen it, but that's because it isn't even my VCR but a travelling one, and I'm currently living with said travelers) and the pause button is missing. Therefore, I can't even take a decent look at what it looks like from a movie. Damn the man.

Therefore, I hate mornings. There is one thing that I'm proud of, and its Sirius' hand. I can't draw hands to save my life, but this - this one's good. Even if it does look like it's coming out of nowhere.

Ah, hell. I'll never be as good as I want to be, so why bother.

And now I have a huge grin on my face. And I'm all bouncy. You HAVE to make it down here! I mean, I'm leaving soon...and so is Alan. And we're leaving for the same country, I just realized... *strange and scary thoughts of kidnap and stalking enter crazy mind* Oh, I wish. But you're right - sleep would be out of the question. Who the hell needs sleep, anyway? (Yes, I went to bed at 4 because I was drawing. Sleep = not too important.)

Brie-for-Brains? Mmmm, sounds good. Now, where did I put that load of bread... ;)

Well, when do you and Alan leave? If I'm going to try to come out, I'd have to schedule it around dog shows that i've already entered and/or have committed to going to with Carrie since we make plans regarding who is driving and what hotel, etc.

I could possibly combine a few days with you and a few days' visit with a friend in CT who would *strangle* me if she found out I'd been to the East Coast without visiting her. And, whatever bits of me would be left, her daughter would destroy!!

So, give me some ideas on what would work, places I could stay, stuff like that--and I'll see what I can do. I'm not used to having dog shows all summer like this--in the Midwest, all of our shows were in spring and fall, with my whole summer off.

Maybe, just maybe, we can pull this off. I'd love to come out and spend some time with you! It would be an absolute blast, I just know it. The two of us set loose on NYC.....

All I can say is poor, poor Sam.
