I had the greatest intentions of posting some pics of my painting in progress, a Hopper inspired view of Super Chicken, whichyou can see in black and white in the photo below. I'm combining on site (in situ) viewing as well as photographic reference for the painting.

However. I worked on the painting diligently for a weekend, went to Maine the following weekend (I'm an Aunt!) and now I've been sick and this weekend I'll be at a funeral. So, painting and updates wait.

Woprk has been interesting. People come into my office and start to talk, their eyes narrow, they say, "Are your allergies bugging you or are you sick?" I tell them I'm sick and they slowly start to back away from my office door. It has greatly decreased the real actual work that is occuring. Additionally my voice has that smokey husky quality that Pheobe in Friends had in that episode where she sang, "Smelly Cat," and people really liked her music until she got better. I still can't sing but these are the kinds of things that I think of when I'm on DayQuill. People, it's not good.

Anyway, Super Chicken…

On another note, can I stop hacking and sneezing and oozing from my sinuses? Just for a few weeks so I can ()**&^^&%&*(^(*&(*_ enjoy fall, after all it IS my favorite season.
