Sick again! Having trouble sleeping because of an itchy throat, but hopefully that means I am getting better. Since it is itchy and not sore I say that is what is happening.

Skipped teaching yesterday because of a horrible cough. Ploo took my place instead. Went and got groceries yesterday, finally! Maybe if I eat better I will not get so sick all the time.

Going to go teach my morning summer class at Palega in a couple of hours. I am not looking forward to it. There are a couple of kids that like it but in general they seem like just some chumps that are there because their parents want to get rid of them for a day...a bad case of the chicken or the egg.

Start a podcast soon???

Woke up early and not wanting to go back to sleep. Since I am feeling better I want to do a lot...feeling very ambitious. I have to remember to not push too hard out of fear of getting sick again.

Did some leg stretching in bed while reading. Reading some Bruce Lee. Maybe that is why I feel all ambitious. Before bed i read some Guy Debord and Jean Dubuffet. I think that reading a mix like that will keep my brain healthy; or completely confuse me! Debord/Dubuffet/Lee...what a combo!!! Add in some Crowley and we will be truly messed up in the head.

Got out of the shower and there is a poke on FB from K waiting for me! My heart is pounding!

What do I want to do today? Drawings, maybe collages, and I do want to start an all-over painting on the large canvas that is waiting for me.

Taught my morning class...went through single and double sinawali, some kickboxing, and wind & thunder. They seemed to do best on W&T instead of the more "practical" stuff. Maybe next week I will change my game plan.

A couple of the kids were asking to do sticks again...

I have a painting to work on today and some photobomb scores to make. Feeling a little tired and fatigued so I'm not sure how much I will accomplish.

The weather is perfect today!

Painted the panties on my new canvas. Silly boy Jimmy!

Drinking Lai-Ta...not as good as real but it isn't bad either. Need a caffeine rush.

Did the first 20 photobomb scores. These are in the Guy Debord series. Some of them are silly, others seem inspired. I think I will publish them all, silly or not, as I want people to use them.

I had a great day today. Took my very first Butoh class and I loved it. Then we went to an art opening and the crew I was with was so much fun. I hope to become close to them!

Peanut doesn't like me anymore so that is sad.

8:36 AM Home It's gray out but that's okay as I will be heading into the valley with the brown belts to see Sifu and the gang. Not looking forward to seeing Merced but it's always pleasant to see Sifu. I'm hoping to learn some cool new stuff. Started another large white painting yesterday, the one with the Maxim Gorky biography collage. So far I'm enjoying how it looks and am still debating if I want to add pencil to it or not. I am thinking that I will just to add a rhythm to it. Didn't sleep all that well; was hot and Bumba kept getting in my face but that is par for the course lately. Missing day one of Hardly Strictly Bluegrass but oh well. I have martial arts to learn. Will go drink beer in the park tomorrow.
