Painting can be a good distraction.

Can it?

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

For a little bit, yeah.

[wingedvirtue.livejournal.com]

Perhaps I'll try it one of these days, when I have the time. For now, what does such a pretty lady need distractions from?

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

I didn't have much free time, either, but I quit my job and suddenly I have too much of it.

Memories, mostly. Things that can't be changed.

[wingedvirtue.livejournal.com]

My sympathies then, miss. To both the excess of time and memories that refuse to be ignored.

You sound like Steve, darling. I believe that was one of the first things he ever told me.

So...like the new place?

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

I've come to realize Steve and I have a lot in common.

I do, Tony. It's very beautiful. How may I thank you?

[builfromscraps.livejournal.com]

You really do.

Keep the noise to a minimum? I'm kidding, sweetheart...I look forward to having you where I can keep an eye on you as a neighbor.

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

He's prettier than me, though. It's quite sad. ;)

Same here. We should all have dinner to christen the place.

[builfromscraps.livejournal.com]

In a manly way, darling, but he could never pull off your hair. He'd look ridiculous with pigtails.

A brilliant idea! Dibs on the cooking...

[is-anotherone.livejournal.com]

It sure can.

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

Which isn't to say I'm very good at it, but it can be very soothing.

[is-anotherone.livejournal.com]

That's one of the nice things about painting; you only have to be good at it if you want to make a living doing it.

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

I'd probably starve. Do you paint for a living?

[is-anotherone.livejournal.com]

I try. Mostly I starve...

I never was into that whole art thing, but my friend Peyton did that stuff all the time. She got out all of her feelings and stuff, and it seemed to be good for her.

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

Me either, to be honest. And it's not like I'm good at it, but it's soothing. I'm more into photography. I might actually get a dark room. And there's a studio a few blocks from the Brownstone. You should come visit.

[the-prettygirl.livejournal.com]

I can see how it's relaxing. Is that where you're doing that stuff, a studio? I'll definately stop by!

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

No, actually, I'm painting the new place Pepper and I are moving into. She's giving me creative reign and, well, I think she just wants me to have a project. Since I love your taste, you might have to help me with that.

So I heard. Wish I could manage somethin' other den stick figures.

[locked]
How ya doin'? Really.

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

Stick figures can be artistically expressive, Cajun. Tony makes quite the masterpieces when left with macaroni boxes.

[locked]
Honestly? Really, really lousy. Is it obvious?

[americas-cap.livejournal.com]

It's an excellent distraction.

How's it going?

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

It's very soothing. Could use it not getting on my hair, though.

Pretty good, I think? I'm nearly done with the living room.

[americas-cap.livejournal.com]

If you want, I'll come give you a hand tomorrow. I've pretty much finished the downstairs of Tony's house.

[rattle-thecages.livejournal.com]

Sure! You've got much more artistic capability than myself. Also, I might need help with a twelve-year old.
