I want a digital SLR...And I'd actually like to take some photography classes to go with it. Would be nice if they counted towards my art degree. Hmmmmmmm... "Someday I'll finish," she says. But four hour night classes twice a week are not in my immediate future. I've thought many times about enrolling and actually finishing the degree. The studio classes would be amazing and cathartic and I'd actually feel the creative bug again. That would mean heading to class directly after work and getting home just in time to go to bed. How did I used to manage it? I don't think I ever questioned it then. I was glad to be done with high school and absolutely excited to be in college studying what I love. Now I know why people always said finish it now else you never will. It's all a matter of perspective, I guess.

Untouched sketch pads...blank canvases...dull pencils...full tubes of paint... and an out-of-focus inspiration barely the color of an old, faded, washed out dish cloth. "You need to find it," Mr. Brinks would say. Where did the reds, yellows, and blues go? There there. I see them every now and then. I'll find it as soon as I really look.
