Oh and it didn't make a sound the whole time, nor did I. Surreal and silent, like a nightmare.

Embarrassing, I guess. Now I keep looking out for the thing, because it happened near where I live. What the fuck, crow?!
We have the same problem problem with magpies swooping you. Mainly when they are nesting. They always attack from behind so we paint eyes on the back of an old cap. Seems to work with magpies so maybe try the eyes on the back of a hat.

might work with crows.

I was thinking I could try to bribe them with food or something, make a long term project out of it, befriend the crow civilization. What do they even eat? Or yeah, I could carry a tennis racket. Everybody is happy to ignore me until I start swatting crows, then they'd have something to say I bet. I wonder if that one already recognized me, I see them sitting on top of the apartment building across from me through my window. Could be a crow stalker.

Nice! I don't have much of a yard, though. May try it anyway. Peanuts and dogfood, lol.
I don't think the problem has reached eyeball hat proportions yet, but I'll keep it in mind. Desperate times. You're right, it did always swoop from behind, I didn't even notice at first.

Pretty much - so far they seem pretty uninterested in my advances and offerings of vending machine trail mix. Trying to figure out the best place to leave daily offerings. What, do they want me to bleed animals over an alter?

The universe doesn't want me to play music today. My bass went way out of tune as soon as I picked it up and I couldnt get it in tune Even though I just intonated it. Later I picked up a kalimba and started to find a riff, then I dropped it and it went out of tune.
Fuck you, universe.

I am astonished at how little google turns up when I search for drawing techniques without pain, tightness or discomfort. I am getting really tired of being motivated to be creative but unable because my stupid right hand won't work correctly.

Told my course supervisor I'm dropping out today. She sent me an email saying my host teacher told me I wasn't performing, even though they had told me to my face things were ok. I'm sick of people fucking me around.
Waiting for surgery now.

Nah man don't drop out. Stay just to spite the fuckers. Just demand they help you catch up. It's thier job to educate you, not take the money and set you up to fail. When I was doing my course the harder things got the more I dug my heels in and refused to give up. It worked and I got my Diploma. Commitment does pay off.

Last Late Show with David Letterman. Grew up watching that with my dad. Brought a tear to my eye for sure. Plenty, actually.
