Updates lovah

Almost midnight and I'm left assuaging wounds that today has left.
A day that began with a sonorous bang, a day that reached its crescendo this morning, a day that couldn't better itself anytime after.. here still, waiting to pass.
As glorious as its beginning was, today left in its wake a string of productive outcomes- not least since it was supposedly strewn with hearts, what with Valentine's Day and all.

I wonder what the world had been up to, what was my city up to?
Valentine's Day..a mouthful enough to make you gag. Its implications full of double entendres.

I was resolved to not leave my house, it's cold out and I don't need the chill to permeate me any further.
The cat is out somewhere, just as his nocturnal little soul demands of him, not least because he napped through the whole day.
Cat napping as they say is a term most casually, somewhat inaccurately used to describe comatose slumber. The little furball slept 9 hours straight and dove into his food bowl like a starving tapeworm only to sleep a little more, after which he ate again and left home like he meant it. No doubt feline business to attend to.

The new drawing progresses rapidly, in a rather slow manner. Contradictory, yes. But that's how it is. The progression though fast for me might appear rather slow paced to the general eye because the detailings are many, and there's a good bit of pointillism and stippling in this drawing. More than most, and although it can stretch your patience to its absolute limits and make you want to start stabbing things with the point of your pen, it strangely, slowly, pulls you into a relaxing stance of mind numbing repetition that though initially irritating becomes soothing.
Odd, yes.
Patience is the key they say, and I'm an extremely patient person. Extremely.
Of course my fingers are fatigued with today's hard labour and hopefully in a day or two at most I'll be done with this baby.

Ah, what else?
This post that began as something of a poetic ode to today has spiraled into an update of rather vivid quality and I've hearts alone to thank for that.
