Unwind

"And here fantastic fishes duskly float,
Using the calm for waters, while their fires
Throb out quick rhythms along the shallow air."

^^^elizabeth browning gets it right^^^

I have somewhat of a frenetic energy about me. When an idea pops into my head, things tend to get a bit Ludacris "Get Out the Way"-ish, especially if it involves the "Let's Clean the House at 10pm" idea, (or the recent, "Let's Make a Homemade Alphabet Book with Watercolors at 10pm). Why is it always 10pm? And why does the alphabet have so many letters? 
Daniel usually huddles in a corner, clutching his Bible until the whirlwind of Clorox wipes and Daft Punk on Pandora has passed by. 

Accomplishing anything can quickly become equally annoying/exhilerating, for an equally complicated procrastination/motivation walking contradiction of a person such as myself. 
When the Go-Do-Now thoughts are on repeat, I remember one particularly frenzied morning of late. 
Long story short, it involved THREE pieces of burnt toast and an entire jar of salsa splattered on the kitchen walls. 

If you burn multiple pieces of Dave's Killer Bread, you know the universe is telling you to s l o w d o w w w w w w n. 

Thankfully, these hazy June afternoons are providing plenty of moments to do just that. 
Of course, "Plenty" = 1-3 hrs. while Bean is napping. "Moments"= wolfing down a sandwich, flipping through marie claire, and sketching/writing/coffee-ing/doing. 

Or couch potato-ing. 

That's always a solid choice.
