I still don't know how you do it all though! What you said about learning being addictive is interesting. A co-worker brought in an article about just that--the "ping" that happens when we learn something and how it creates the release of endorphins (or was it serotonin?). Anyway, it's an actual physical response that can be addictive, but in a good way, don't you think? And watercolor supplies an endless source of pings (and their opposite sometimes!)Jana Bouchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18019523068496828367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19077822.post-1165383152519400632006-12-06T00:32:00.000-05:002006-12-06T00:32:00.000-05:00This is glowing Lin.
