Napster, Acrylics, and the ever present longing for False entertainment

Removed the TV from the Studio.
It's tough to not have the mindless interaction while working - to have comforting noises coming from the tube - making me laugh, drift...get glued. But it's tough getting up at a decent hour. It's tough not to binge after 8pm. It's tough not to leave all my clothes on the floor. It's tough not to have a drink before 9am...but some things we must do.
All the hours spent holding a cig in one hand and a paintbrush in the other, while watching endless amounts of Frasier or America's Funniest Home Videos, will be spent listening to music, working, inspired by the emotion and lyrics, as opposed to fighting the urge to stop and watch, I will instead go and create. I just burned a couple of cd's off of Napster, and hope to figure out how to connect long cables from my office to the studio, so that I can listen to streams of free music instead of cds.
