New(and in progress)

I'm lazy!
I don't have a new intersting photo.. so I thought I'd post an update on my latest attempt at painting..
So, this one, I posted a few days ago, titled "new". What I didn't mention was that it was still a work in progress...
So, I added a "face" (if you will..) to this mess.. Pavla thinks it looks like her. (haaaaa!)
We all know she is much prettier than that! ;)
I am really bad at facial features, and making things look "realistic". So, I took it upon myself to smudge this one a bit, and make it a little more abstract- or surreal (is that really the word I'm looking for?)

wow- It's 12:05 AM- and Billy is still not home from work! I think it's inhumane- but it's what he has to do to keep us afloat right now. Every man around is jobless... that's right, ladies, we are the new bread winners of the family now-a-days. It really stinks, though, because I made us dinner, and now it is cold.. I wonder if he'll even be able to eat it now! :(
Chuy acts crazy when he's gone... I guess it's his protective instinct coming into play. Even still, it is so annoying! He is up my "A" constantly, and barks at every single little noise- whether it's neighbors outside, or me- setting a glass down on the table.. anything.. "Rrruuuffff!" Man, it's aggrivating!
So, falling asleep now is just going to be impossible.. not really even worth trying for!
So, I've been quite the couch potato tonight.. drinking a beer, because I have nothing better to do.. this would be the perfect opportunity to do some more painting, or even a little playing around with the old camera.. but- Naah..
here I am tip-tap-typing away at this silly blog.. I hope nobody is suffering through this whole thing.. just jibber-jabber really..
MY HEAD HURTS!
Pavla helped me try on the wedding dress today... just to see how it fits now. And yeah.. go figure- it's too freakin' big now! Somehow, I've lost a bit of weight! Actually, quite a bit! And I know, most women would be thanking god for that, but no- this is awful! Now I'll not only have to get it hemmed up (because I'm so terribly short), but now I have to get it tightenend, or whatever... Stinks, really STINKS! I bet it will cost quite a bit of money.. and money I have not. So, this is bad news, folks. Weight loss isn't always a good thing! :(
Is it stress? I feel like I eat normally.. and it's not like I exercise like a fiend! Infact, I'm the worst thing that's ever happened to a gym membership. hahaaaa
Oh, what to do.. what to do?

Eat cake?

Oh, nice- Chuy just ate his little doggie bed.. Now I must go clean fluff from the carpet- JOY! ::sigh::
