2 24 pm pdt   [ exhaustion ]

Exhaustion has set in, closing its giant hand around me in an enveloping embrace. I have the usual mess to sort through after vacation: phone calls to make, e-mails to answer, groceries to buy. By the end of this week, the television show I have been creating graphics for will be output to DigiBeta and on its way to the producers in Florida. Having just delved back into my family tree research, I have all sorts of queries to respond to and letters to send. I seem to keep digging little holes for myself to get stuck in.

It would be quite a pleasure to adjust back to LA time flawlessly. I was not at all hungry at lunch time today, and I'm sure that was because of the time change.

I have dozens of pages to scan from the paper journal I made of our trip. I had intended to do an entirely phographic journal of my European vacation, but how was I to know Matthew would break his little camera before I even arrived. Oh well...

I will have to do a photo journal some time. It will be a challenge for me to communicate entirely without words. I like challenges.

[ 3 years of diaring... ]

three years ago today: I got a reply to my reply to the long, convoluted e-mail and have decided that the two of us could bounce off each others' words forever.

two years ago today: The geometric influences on the particular pieces we saw truely appealed to me sensabilities.

one year ago today: I've bought Matthew plane tickets for a visit from October 7-10. I am so excited, and we are going to get a hotel room and, for the first time, take a real vacation.
