When I was a kid, I loved to draw. I was not too bad at it either. But over time I drew less and less. For the past many years I had not even lifted a drawing utensil unless it was to color with the kids or something. So I decided to start drawing a little bit again. I am really bad at it now. Much worse than I once was. But I am getting the hang of it again. Maybe soon I will start publishing some of it here. I feel like I need to get more in touch with my creative side. I would like to get to the point where I am intentionally doing something creative everyday. Whether it be drawing, making music, creating something from found objects, post on this blog, etc., that is one of my current goals: create more.

Had lunch with mom in KC today. It was nice of her to meet me half way. What a mom!

There I was, just sitting at the traffic light. I was in the left turn lane waiting for the green arrow. I thought to myself, "Funny. Green Arrow. Like I am sitting here waiting for a fucking super hero with a bow and arrow to appear." But then I wondered if maybe I was. Am I at an intersection in my life just waiting? Waiting for what I am not sure. But I can tell you one thing. There are a few options and I am not particularly fond of any of them. I can be sure as hell that some Green Arrow is not going to appear and fix my options. Of course the next thing that would happen was to be expected. The green arrow appeared and so I turned left. Whatever happened after that was another story. Was it the correct turn to take? I did not take the other turns, so I guess I'll never know.
