I started today by challenging Damien to a game of scrabble over breakfast. We didn't get time to finish the game, but since I'd managed two seven letter words and potentially had another one on the rack I was
feeling pretty stoked when we packed up.

Top that with the radio playing Polotsvian Dances (without choir) and
singing along anyway.. Whee!

Well, last night proved a success. Damien pulled together a group of
creative people to inspire and help each other achieve their own goals.
I'm now promising to bring a composition to the next gathering in two
weeks. I'm scared, but excited. Yay! It's quite cool actually. Most of
the people there are writers to some degree. But there's a nice overlap
into photography, music and textiles. One girl is actually a
professional tapestry artist. So, yeah, we all have our creative blocks
we need to overcome.. and this just might work as a means to overcome
them. I'm feeling inspired to do some photography and writing too.

I kind of just want to hide away in my house and be all creative and
stuff. This was part of the point of getting the Norton Summit house in
the first place. So things are falling into place. Fantastic!
