Especially since it's 4:11 pm and I've been staring at the clock for 11 minutes, now.

Does that answer your question? Crap.

and I am rarely on time for anything. I love to stay home and listen to my clocks. The earth revolves and I move from one lounging position to another. It is an old throw back from by nude modeling days, hours in one position on a chaise, only allowed to get up if my limbs were going numb. Not the best job I ever had but very interesting. This is not a lie and I am not trying to be funny. All me. True. Love and Peace. lmsp

university Art Department? Was it private contract or was it for a whole class of artists? Did you get to see the finished works? What did you think of some of the interpretations. Did you get cold? What were you lounging on?

interesting.

Some of the works won awards, three that I know of and the furniture pieces were dependent upon which location I was modeling in at the time. I also did contrapposto and figure modeling. I never made any statements to the artists about the products except "Thank you." Many I did not see at all or not until a gallery showing. Some artists are very private about their work and I never asked if it was not voluntarily visible. There is a protocol of mutual respect and appreciation in this that I have never experienced in any other job in my life. Love and Peace. lmsp

10. Clock?

When I sit down at this old computer for 5 minutes sometimes it turns into 5 hours.

The only time a clock rules my world is when I'm doing my job as an escort.
