Stasis

I feel as though I am in a state of suspended animation. Changeless. The weather gives no inclination of turning to the bitter cold. No change of color. No scent of snow. Perpetual summer. Endless blue skies and golden sun. Greenery expanding in every direction, growing ever greener in the recent rain. Flowers blooming. New fruits bursting forth. Birds forever courting in the never-ending spring-like cycle. Everything progressing at a leisurely pace. No pressure. Short of the deadlines of course.

Halloween and Thanksgiving snuck upon me unawares. As will my plane Chicago bound in December.

Fighting lethargy. Fighting complacency. Fighting to stay on top of my game when outside opinions do little to motivate or push.

Pushing to break this theatre out of the comfort zone of miscommunication and departmental rifts it has fallen into. Just because it has worked in the past...no excuse not to seek something better...

So...another personal project. Probably a halter dress. I'm not quite sure yet. Lord above, I'm adding color to my wardrobe! I couldn't help myself when I saw the fabrics. I miss working with fine silks...the sad thing is I know I could have bought the exact same fabrics for a fifth of the cost in New York.
