Religion is mainly about power and copouts.

It's sad that it's like a get-out-of-jail-free card for a lot of them. "I can treat people badly and be a total asshole...but it's okay...I'm a Christian." :laugh:

  Let down.  Aimless.  I need to get excited about some new stuff.  :jaded:
why let down?

  I get like that sometimes when I have too much unstructured time.  :-\

When is the last time you sketched/painted?

  It's been awhile.  Sometimes I think my stuff is just gimmicky doodles anyway.  :-\

Accomplished. Did a lot of errands I didn't feel up to doing but got them done.

  That's what I need to do today!  That always makes me feel better.  :thumbup:

Go for it.  I think Andy Warhol made a fortune with gimmicky doodles.

  Thank you. :hug:  I have thought about that, yes.  Maybe I could exhibit one day!  :orly:

Is there satisfaction for you in the process of drawing/painting? Or do you need the idea of e exhibiting/selling your work to give you pleasure?

Without inherent motivation of there being pleasure in the making I think it would be hard to do it. The pressure would add stress to it all too.

With the pleasure, there would be satisfaction, also without recognition outside your own four walls.

  I do love the process, I just sometimes think I spend a little too much time inside my own four walls.  :-\

Maybe you just need that time. And drawing might be the way to make you relax and wind down in some ways.

You exercise, walking to work, you work all day, with people, needing to spend time away from people seems a healthy need.

If you had a job working from home, with no human interaction, that would be different.

And if you really do think you need to get out of the door more, taking night classes, like Ren suggested might be great. The people you'd meet there would also have a goal to work on. It would give conversation a focus. Could make interaction easier.

I'm feeling fucking tired btw. And my palate and teeth hurt. :P

Should get my lazy ass geared up. The lawn needs mowing. And it needs to be done this afternoon. But it's close to 30°C, do not looking forward to plow my pusher through too high grass.

If I don't do it today, I'll have to wait till it all is dry again. Apparently we're in for a wet and cooler week from this evening on. Might get two inches of rain tonight. * Keeps fingers crossed, hoping for massive cooling downpour *

So I fell under pressure too. :GA:

And I want Dox to hold me. I only bring him up because I haven't liked anyone else since.

Looks like you could do with a tight hug.

Sending you a virtual one, if you want it. :hug:

Thanks. :hug: Hugs are much appreciated by me.

I feel jealous because I aint in the hug. :violin:

You gave me a sweaty one last time. No hugs for you. :P

This time I only smell bad.  :zoinks:
