have a beautiful poetic phrase floating in my head - and it's not going anywhere. have the concept and that one phrase, but the rest of the poem refuses to come out.

guess i'll let it sit for a while.

saw a really interesting briefing on the history of Islam and the Middle East. doesn't give me much hope for the future. other than that, this has been your regularly scheduled unproductive monday.

doctor's appointment. whee. then i can go home and work on my drawings.
