Project Whup Dan: Dan is in no danger of being whupped. 😂 I did get back on the bike yesterday and to my surprise/relief it seems that a week OFF from cycling hadn’t been enough time for my sit bones to forget that I’d BEEN cycling, so I did a little zoom around the neighborhood yesterday to see if that would cause me significant Bike Butt today, with the intention of going on a slightly longer ride today if not. Again to my surprise, it was ‘if not’, so I…

art project: Hour 25 And Beyond
unrelated to most of anything else I might say, I noticed after a while that my rough hours breakdown of this project…was missing hours 30-40. :) Hours: 0-10: basic shapes 10-20: shading, perspective 20-30: perspective 30-40: IT’S A MYSTERY 40-60: objects, animals, beginning portraiture 60-100: portraiture …know how I said that having hit hour 20, I was confident I’d at least get to hour 25?

Recent Reads: SILENT SONGS

It’s a beautiful world, and the human lead, Tesa, is a Deaf Souix heyoka (trickster, shamanistic person). She’s my favorite Starbridge lead, and…yeah, I just love her, her story,…
exercise: good news/bad news
Good news/bad news on the Project ‘Whup Dan’ front: Good news is, the bike shop got the gear shifts on my bike working properly so it now goes through the entire range of gears without dropping the chain, and also actually shifts IN to third, which it had never previously done. It’s a cheap bike and it’s the 3rd time I’ve brought it in to try to get this fixed, so I guess 3rd time is the charm. Bad news is, it took a week so I probably have to…
