    conversing with the electric body of someone I may never meet,
Someday, and it may be years from now, we will have a giant Hubski gathering for the southwest and I'm buying you a drink littlebirdie. We shall meet :-)

Sometimes I feel the same way regarding my creativity being in a slump. But for me at least, it has to do with time. It's hard to create a bunch of work/art when you've got a 2 year old. I can no longer slip down in to my studio, guilt free. Unless it is after hours, I have to consider the opportunity costs.

I am definitely up for a Husbki meetup!

You will get so much inspiration from your wee one that it will make up for time slump a million times over. I miss those days, they were full of so much life.

This comment is over 4 years old. My 2 year old that we referenced is now a 6 year old. She's amazing. You were right, the amount of inspiration that my "wee one(s)" (I have a 3 year old son now) have given me is amazing. I write children songs, poems, draw pictures with them, paint etc. They're creativity embodied. We are born to create!

Hope you are well birdie. If, per chance you read this, check out how my son came in to the world. Pretty awesome stuff, eh?

Also, we gather every Wednesday to chat, share and be merry, in the pubksi. You should join us.
