Beach Break

I have been sitting at the computer all day.  It is going to be one of those weeks that I need to strap it to my chest and carry it with me wherever I go.  Work deadlines.  Paper for class.  Wish I had started sooner.  Blah blah.  When my neck was screaming from too much computer tonight, I took a break and painted.

I had fun painting these flip flops.  Painted tin is not the easiest surface for painting, but I hope if the colors are bright enough and there are enough flip flops, it will work.

Enough goofing off, I am back to researching my leadership communication assessment of Susan B. Anthony.  Interesting woman.  I have blogged about the suffragettes before.  Tough chicks.  Makes me wonder if there is anything I would sacrifice and fight for so long and so hard.  We owe those women.

sometimes Normal Girl creates something stupid and ugly....creativity does not have a recipe. She just never shows you the stupid and ugly projects.

I've done so much online campaigning today, I feel like a suffragette!

See this book about Susan B. Anthony if you haven't already: http://www.amazon.com/Not-Ourselves-Alone-Elizabeth-Stanton/dp/037570969X/ref=pd_bbs_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1222904766&sr=8-4

Ken Burns is a good storyteller - but often left-leaning.
