re: sometimes it feels like..........

i was listening to a song by Tamara Nile last night as i was working on this artwork, it was from her "Cabin Song" EP, actually i was listening to the title track, and thinking about my own kids, they're all so small.....out of the five kids i've got, four are under the age of seven......and four are girls.......

i'm on the road all the time, it's been about two years solid now, well, i mean i get to go home for a week or two, but for the kind of art, or film, or music, or writing, that i do, i can only make a living on the road......and canada is so vast, so it entails a lot of traveling........i can't go back to construction work, i've been charting this course a long time, so i'm starting to realize, i want to start taking them on the road with me.......and i want to head over to europe to do my thing........just need some representation or as i tend to call it, i need "the door" to open, which is a metaphor for an opportunity, a chance encounter, a lead, or what have ye......and it'll happen, it does all the time, it's just a matter of being at the right place at the right time........

anyway, i'll get to see my kids soon enough, and for the first time in two years, i'll be home for halloween! woot! woo!! WOOO!!

oh, where i was going with the song i was listening to, "the cabin song" is that i'm starting to wonder what my kids will remember about me, or what they will say.......which means i've got to be home more or they've got to come on the road with me.......

well, until next time boys and girls, friends and foe, lovers and haters,

see ya!
