Grey and breezy.
My ear is ringing off the hook.
Thinking, do I want to get my blood test today? Not really. I feel like there is a cold coming on. I do need to go down there and get my insulin. And I need to pick up my Fast-pass.

1:28 PM
After running around, getting insulin, coffee, and my fast-pass, I came home and finished "Nero" and I quite like it. It does look different from most of my other paintings, if not all of them. It's rare for me to be this loose with the paint, but it was fun and I think I'd like to do this type of painting again soon. A new series is already swirling in my brain inspired by the book "Flesh Inferno:Atrocities of Torquemada and the Spanish Inquisition" which arrived a couple of days ago. I shouldn't start that series until the new year, however. I have too many unfinished paintings waiting to go. Must......keep...........working!

I hate holiday's. I have too many people feeling obligated to invite me to their get togethers. Here's how I look at it; if people didn't want to hang out with me on regular days why would they feel like they need to see me for lame holidays? Example...when I lived in small town USA, just a few blocks from my family, I still only saw them on Thanksgiving and Christmas, and that was basically it. Now I'm hearing that I have to go back there and spend at least three days, three days in a town I never felt welcomed in anyway. Also, a friend is visitng California and wants to come to SF. This is a person that is a vegan and once told me that he didn't think he could be my friend because I'm not a vegan! Why would I be excited to have a visit when I'm told that type of thing? Holiday's always remind me of some bitterness that I'm carrying around. If my compant isn't desired any other day of the year, then fuck it....I don't need to be included in silly holiday shit.
Hhmmm, weird...I'm getting angry, kind of out of the blue...

4:33 PM
Been working on a painting I'm thinking of calling "Sealing Up the Dead Memories", or something thereabout. Getting close to being finished.

Didn't get to go to the gym, but it's okay.
SFMOMA tomorrow. I'm excited.
Started another new painting...looks like a Picasso.
