a revelation
i realized something on the drive tonight.
i realize lots of things on the drive, and i remember some of them, sometimes, much to your dismay, dear reader.
i realized why i enjoy doing things like this: it is an attempt to create "the perfect day".
i am a creative person plagued by limited creative skills. i can't play any musical instrument but i've got this nagging suspicion i'd make a fine composer.
i can write reel gud but i have trouble thinking up stories.
i have the will to paint, draw, sculpt... but no talent.
so, always searching for an outlet for unharnessed creativity, i came upon day-building, ala groundhog day. and i found that it can be done.
i can create the perfect day -- or attempt to.
it's no fun (no challenge) to create a perfect day for myself. has to be for someone else.
it's not easy, but i'm guessing it's much more rewarding than composing a symphony.
at the very least, i don't have to be deaf to do it well.
