So Close And Yet So Far

Everything always happens all at once. Or, at least, that's generally the way it seems.

I've got more bottle cap flowers to make for Falkirk, my installation for Burning Man to complete, sculptures that I need to retrieve and a camper van to prepare for travel - all before I leave for the playa on August 14th.

I'm a bit over-whelmed. And under-motivated. What I'd really like to do is crawl back into bed with a good book, my laptop and a stack of movies. And stay there until September.

It's always the last five percent of anything that is the hardest part. It's like, you are so close to getting something done but it feels impossible to finish.

I just want things to take care of themselves. Like securing the wheels to the base of Wheel Weed so that I can install it at Falkirk. And stapling the last bottle caps to my City Benches for Burning Man. And picking up (and putting somewhere) Flower Spiral from the no-longer-to-be-completed art park at 580 Hayes in San Francisco. (Yeah, that last one is a real bummer.)

None of these things are tough or even that time-consuming. I just don't feel like doing any of it. My energy is Ebbing right now. I need to get back into Flow. I took a couple of days off and now I don't want to get back on. Yikes. Well, I just gotta push through. Stuff is either gonna get done or it's not but either way time will move forward so I might as well go along with it.

Insanely Whacked Out Movie of the Day:

A Town Called Panic

This is what I am doing instead of working - watching random movies on Netflix Watch Instantly. I watched this movie last night. All I can say is...Wow. Really. Wow.
