It's getting hotter here in Phoenix. I've got my windows open now.
This weekend was really relaxed and fun. I went with Jake to a BBQ and to Tucson. It was finally a weekend away with friends that I've been wanting since I got here in August, and now I'm leaving it to do this project. I don't feel yet like I'm in my last few weeks here, even though that is the case, very much. The main emotion about all this is being afraid of other people, weather, bad luck, money. I know once I get all my things into storage and get the tent and get the car loaded that it will feel real all at once, but for now I'm just going to work maniacally to save all the money I can produce.

I'm gonna go paint a while then go to bed; I have to wake up before the birds again. Sign the guestbook if you're reading this. It comforts me, thanks.
