Burning the midnight oil.

It seems that recently I'm getting most of my work done while this half of the world sleeps. I've even had a couple of people refer to me as a "vampire" for choosing work over sleep. It turns out that even the dog is bothered by it. She's been giving me dirty looks for keeping her awake. They just don't realize that these are the hours when I am most creative. There are no distractions like the phone or people wanting to go places and do stuff. And for those who are wondering... Do I sleep? Yes, I sleep through rush hour traffic, school zones, the inane morning talk shows and all the rest of the stuff that my "Day walker" friends endure. So, tonight, while they were sleeping I worked on updating the website with this....



...this.


Oh yeah... and this!!



... and other jewelry pieces too.

What they don't understand is, that the hours after the sunsets are the moments that allow me focus and get stuff accomplished. Like making new jewelry, photographing those lovely creations, editing photos, updating my website, and even writing the occasional blog post. It doesn't get done all in one night, after all, I'm a vampire... not Wonder Woman. ;)

  1. Were we mystical twins, separated at birth in some cosmic event that had us born across the globe from each other and at different times?

    I know exactly what you mean, I am at my most creative and productive in the wee hours and love how quiet and contemplative it is at that time of the day.

    The hours before the sunrises are really under rated. ;)
