Umami

Paint is the siren's song. It takes all of my will power to pull away. I know that the kittens are coming home now and I know that I get to hug and love them. I'm looking forward to that and getting out into the sunshine to pick tomatoes.

But... it's so hard. I don't want to quit. My head is making excuses of why I should keep working and justifying putting all other responsibilities off for another day. Is there msg in paint? Shouldn't the tubes be labeled with warnings of the possible side effects? Shouldn't the seductive quality of paint be a sin? Is it?

My studio door is shut, I'm going outside now. I really am because I'm strong. I can do it...
