Waiting For Something To Happen

This is exactly how I feel today. I feel like I am waiting for something to happen.

Good or bad.

It’s not an entirely unpleasant feeling but it reminds of how oysters make pearls. That little irritant that keeps getting shellacked until it’s a really large irritant that is just incredibly smooth and then some person comes along and cracks you open to get it out, killing you in the process.

Okay… maybe it’s not a pleasant feeling after all.

I did get another ukulele. It’s nice to know that I am not the only person who collects them. I started to feel a little crazy that I needed just one more.

My new black beauty - the Lava U

It plays like butter which seems great to me but not sure if that is a good thing or not.

My art challenge is going okay but I feel wholly inaqdequate. I think I need more formal classes to learn … you know actual art stuff. I probably need to do that for my next series of classes.

Let’s hope no one comes along and cracks me open.
