done at work

Sketch done in two nights when I was working security at an industrial facility in south Austin.

It's mostly under control now

Sat Feb 6, 2010, 12:26 PM

  • My mother is in a care facility in Cloverdale, CA. Not a nursing home--this is for physical therapy. Rehab after major physical changes such as surgery or bone fractures, etc. She should be out in a little under three weeks, presuming steady progress on her part & not any more emergencies. (That's a big "presuming since with my mother, everything is an emergency.)
    • When I arrived, mom had no place to go. She was living out of motels. Now she's got a place to go after rehab is over.
      • Her two dogs were a major source of aggravation for her, but of course she is too emotionally needy to see that. If it had been me, I would've given them up for adoption a while ago. She is physically incapable of looking after Rathead & never had the will to train & discipline the dog properly.

        But that will change. Rathead will go home with me on the plane. Her days of anarchy & dissipation are over. This dog will be made useful. In time.
        • I've gotten quite a bit done. However I've done damned little drawing while here in Ukiah. Haven't been in the right frame of mind for it.


Ukiah & Cloverdale are in wine country. It's picturesque...lots of vineyards of course, winding roads & freeway, steep, craggy hills & much forest. It's pretty relaxed. Culturally it's small-town America with traces of hippiedom. If it weren't for my loyalty to Austin & economic realities, I wouldn't mind living here.

Might I ask where you got your name? Is it in reference to the Arabic poet?

When a caveman declared an oddly shaped rock holy, the caveman who said, "You stupid, it just rock," was the first Atheist.

He was also the first person to have his skull crushed by a sacred rock, but such is the cut and thrust of theological debate.

Yes, but in my case, the poetry wasn't the main emphasis. Full marks for observation. :)

So how exactly did you find me?

I think I saw a comment you posted somewhere else but I really don't remember where. The name just caught my eye.

What was your main emphasis? The sceptecism?
