OK. So new rule for the young rhino.
No more sitting on the couch watching TV with the ex. Why you may ask? Because whenever we used to sit on the couch and watch TV, we would just end up having sex. So once I am sitting there remembering that, and in fact thinking of all the times we had sex on the couch we...

amethyst:
I don't even know what you would need one of those FOR! lol but hello anyway
amethyst:
that sux that you got laid off! best of luck!
Blah, just blah.
What do you do when you are seeing someone, can find no fault with them, but just aren't sure about the whole thing anyway?
I don't want to be wishy washy about the whole thing, I'm just a bit unsure of it.

I'm going alright. Just trying to get out of the office early so I can paint the house exterior a little more. I get like 3 sq ft done a day.. I'm so bad.. uggh! Hopefully I'll be atleast 1/2 done with the house by this weekend.
Have you tried finding a job on craigslist? I posted an ad for a receptionist position this morning and by lunchtime I rec'd about 20 responses. I was suprised I got that many... and I have 29 more days til my ad expires, too.
Got any plans for this long weekend?

Hey kids.
So I have been laid off, again. Second times the charm I guess. So I am sort of looking for work. I am trying for some freelance tech work to support myself while at the same time I am going to try and find photo assisting work.
Basically I am trying to take this as some sort of sign that I should finally...

So what I am wondering is this:
Is an attempt at artistic expression still worth something if what you produce is crap? Are you better just for having tried, or if the result is no good does that invalidate the whole attempt? I mean what good does it do for me to paint if the result has no value? What is the point of writing...

figmentation:
it depends on the result you're going for...
If you focus on the process of creation. from the actual sitting down to write at the comp or gathering of the paint and brushes and focusing your thoughts and allowing them to pour out of you onto the screen or onto the canvas then you have a piece of yourself there before when you have finished. To judge that as "good" or "bad" nullifies that it's a part of you, expressed. You've just judged yourself, which will inhibit true expression.
If you focus on the actual piece and that it must look or be a certain way, you've forced yourself into a mold, and anything short of perfection won't fit the mold. This of course means you're just not good enough and should stop attempting at this exact moment because you'll never fit a mold. (none of us will, bytheway. even if we pretend we're cheese left in the fridge too long and grow green fuzzy coats.)
my recomendation, pick up a book entitled writing down the bones by natalie goldberg. Read it, all of it. It's yummy food.
Also, start letting you be you. Realize where you are inhibiting your natural tendancies to be yourself and becoming that which someone else wants you to be. Let that awareness flow into your expression.
Kisses,
~Figment
ps. I'm a horrible "artist" for the sake of art, but that doesn't stop me from doing that which I enjoy. Those who call it crap don't get to see much of it.

yay! the book is good stuff... Being overly critical and self indulgent stimotaniously are perfectly fine, if that's what you want. practice not labeling for a while, see what it does.
