gut feeling

OK. I LOVE the ocean. I love it. I don't even know if it's possible for me to express just how except to say it is like the incredibly amazing feeling you have when you sit next to someone you love absolutely and in that beautiful second of complete understanding of one another you just sit and hold hands in perfect silence. I don't know; I just want to be near it. For me, being in the ocean feels like the closest thing to the truly sublime I have ever experienced.
It also scares the fucking hell out of me.
Thing is I daydream about the ocean a lot. Every day, I can't wait to get home and get down to the beach. If the conditions are on, I want to get in the water. The problem is this picture constantly flashes through my mind. Most surfers don't talk about how they feel about it - most blow it off. I've learned to fight it off most of the time; I learned to ignore it or work my head not to think of it - but it's an effort, it's work. There are times when it's front and center and I just cannot ignore it, I cannot get it out of my head, and it's at those times that it keeps me out of the water.
guts, no guts? maybe I'd like to hang on to my guts? I don't know.

tea appreciation + fridayness
I'm sitting here this lovely friday morning with my Christa Assad cup enjoying a beautiful, dark, strong cup of tea. I love the thing. It's been my favorite cup for a while now. It's often a topic of conversation with clay people; cups. Check out the blog 'a cup a week' - it's great for us cup freaks.
Friday. I'm on vacation. As I enjoy my tea in my awesome Christa Assad cup, I'm thinking about what I'm going to do with my bad self today.
First thing: Surf Report; big swell from NZ hit today - probably through Monday. We're seeing double overhead south swell action in our future. It's looking like 8-10'. You can check out LiquidPlayground for info. I do NEED to get in the water...
Additional Friday menu items; My studio project starts Tuesday. I have a few chores that must be done for studio builder guy. I need to head over to Building Resources. Also, I need to get to Leslie's . It's production time - so I need to go pick up 400 or 500lbs of clay.
AND last but not least for dinner: TONIGHT is the Sanchez Art Center 50/50 show opening. A clay friend of mine, Sheila over at imakefish has been slaving away this show!
Ok, lot's going on; we'll see where this Friday action takes us!
