April 2nd

So today I am letting my ADHD get the best of me. I have a paper due tomorrow for Art History. I have not covered any of the material yet. I spent the entire day on the internet in joyful bliss...reading. I love to know what others are thinking. To be honest, I haven't really been doing my work since before spring break. I love the subject matter of both art history and British literature so I'm not sure why I've gotten so far off track. I usually only do this with things I hate.

So in the meantime I've had other undertakings to occupy my time. Obviously I cannot remain idol....ever. So in addition to starting this blog, I decided I am going to run a 5k in May. Yes, I am 50lbs overweight. No, I won't let that stop me. I am on week 2 of my training and am already running 4 min/walking 1 min in cycles for a total of 30 minutes. I haven't run this much ever, it's been brutal! Of course, I come home and eat huge bowls of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream drowned in magic chocolate shell. I wouldn't want my A1C to actually go down or anything. Did I mention I have diabetes? Blah, what a drag. Oh yes, and I have been busy making my toddler these super awesome training pants. I am going to find some time to work out the pattern sizing and test them so I can copyright it and add it to my business collection. Yay me!

Thinking on my art paper today has me thinking about an idea I had many years ago for a 3D abstract art piece I wanted to do. It involves plexiglas, baby dolls and red dye vegetable oil. I doubt I will get to it. DH is not a big fan of the "liberal, hippy crap". If he came home to me working on something like that he'd likely be calling the mental hospital on me. He has no appreciation for the arts. I had a gorgeous ink drawing of Jim Morrison I did many years ago and he crumpled it up and stuffed between some things in the closet because it was in his way. It was completely destroyed....ugh. He has no clue why that might upset someone. I don't recall being too angry with him...I know how he thinks...or doesn't for that matter.
