Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

not hanging around these parts! drink more, pass-out & proceed to do sensible things only on sunday! hee.
We're going round to see some friends tomorrow night, and based on previous experiences this means that Sunday is a write-off.
well that leaves artwork for tomorrow afternoon if you are not hungover from tonight. if you drink enough. i hate early morning wake-ups on a saturday, but you are not me. just put the artwork away until you feel the need to do it. lol ~ i've been knitting (don't fuckinglaugh) as a creative outlet at this point. weekends should involve relaxation & drinking until early hours. so don't worry if the art is set on hold for a few days. it's not worth the stress.
it's all about circles and spirals
that ongoing eternity

"just put the artwork away until you feel the need to do it." - I can lose months doing that. And it makes me feel frustrated. I need to force myself to create.

I've found that it's a matter of forcing yourself like a slave driver. Artistic inspiration/motivation doesn't call at your door, it needs to be dragged kicking and screaming and nailed to a board. Then tortured with hot glue guns and nails.

Really... Hmm...
Sigh.
... but once you're back there it turns into flow ... for a while ... and then - from the beginning ...

As I accelerate into the complacency of middle age I find that the things I care enough to fight for seem more worthwhile. And winning those battles against my own inertia are more glorious and more grinning-face-of-victory-erupting-from-the-shattered-and-bloody-corpses-of-your-enemies than when I was young and the world was easy (bonus points for anyone who can find a more succinct predicative adjective that conveys exactly that feeling).

No, you misunderstand - they never met my parents.
Five cups of coffee just to be myself...when I'd rather be somebody else

CW: how in HELL that happens?!
And I can read that in another way... I have NO IDEA how we've been together for as long as we have - it may be longer than 24 years, I've never remembered when we got together (perhaps I've blocked it from my mind )
I'm a terrible person
