my girls

I was in the studio for the start of the week, but am back home processing on my computer for the next few days. Unlike normal, I’m working in the living room because I’m catching up on some horrible trash TV that I absolutely will not give any more details on.

I find that when my mind is heavily distracted and/or enraged by things like racists and police shootings and the reapeated killing of black people, my anger can get the best of me, and I am horrible at accomplishing basic tasks. But weirdly, if I can put in a background distractor like bad TV or a good audio book, I am more likely to plow through my to do list.

So here I am working on the couch with a terrible vampire drama on the TV, and these girls drop in to snuggle. Aren’t they cute? Hazel is more of the calming snuggler. Magda is more like, “why are you on MY couch? If you don’t move, I’m going to the floor and I’m going to take deep breaths and moan until you move.” But whatever. I’ll take it.
