Have you ever felt as if you are consciously choosing to stay sane? I felt like that yesterday. That is, in my book, a development that should be documented. I feel such would be very helpful if I ever made the alternate decision. Pray the future doth not merit such measures.
I think reading is one of the healthiest things I can do. In particul-ARE, as Tavis Smiley would say, with regard to my mental health. I am also convinced that I need to get things out of my head whether by writing them, painting them, building them, photographing them or some other creative expression. It seems over the course of a few weeks without creative expression my mind becomes so muddled up I cannot find a sufficient focus or be content with what I find to occupy my time, no matter how important the current task might be, I feel an overwhelming need to do ’something’ else. There is likely some more trite way to describe that while being all that much more authoritative. I guess that’ll be progress when I find it.
I started the planning stage of KevinNMurphy.com v1.5 PRO. That is what I’m calling the redesign of my professional web identity. I’m also currently working on a redesign for ‘Couple Grammes of Soma’ which I have now given the moniker ‘Kevin N. Murphy at his Leisure’. That will be my more personal blog. I’m currently in the planning stage of ‘ThomasMooreMusic.net’. Bear in mind that when I say ‘planning’ I mean the setting up of the technical stuff, virtual servers, DNS administration, domain registration, WP2.1 installs, and then realizing that it helps to have a plan before trying to code or design stuff. I’ll learn this trade somehow, even if it is the hard way.
She gave orders… she gave orders… to spill my blood I thought
