Nice Long Weekend


Today while I listened to General Conference, I channeled Alex Katz (or tried to, at least) and did some drawings of me and my sister. She's the one that looks like a Barbie and I'm the one that looks like a cartoon character. I asked her what she thought and she just laughed and laughed. I'll take it as a compliment. My drawing skills are rusty lately, but my writing skills are getting better. I still have dreams of publishing a book of short stories someday. But that is, no doubt, in the far distant future.

It has been a nice long weekend. I haven't changed out of my flannel pants and striped toe-socks since Friday. I've worked a lot on my paper, listened to podcasts and conference, watched some movies, eaten some donuts, and just generally lazed around. I love it. My perfect weekend is one where I don't have to go anywhere or do anything, and I accomplished that this time.

Congrats on the good weekend! And please do the short story book! You'd be great at it. And if you want to self-publish, check out lulu.com. It's quite cool to be able to create the content and then just let them print on demand. Might be worth it to spend the dough to get an ISBN for it and get it listed on Amazon, too!
