12 Hours

In 12 hours, I will be back at work.

In 12 hours, I will be sitting at a computer, but not on Facebook or Twitter.

In 12 hours, my cell phone will be on vibrate, not set to play the Mad Men theme song.

In 12 hours, I will be on the clock.

In 12 hours, I will not be doing laundry.

In 12 hours, there will still be laundry to be done.

In 12 hours, I will not be painting.

In 12 hours, it will seem like I had no vacation at all.

In 12 hours, I will be 30 miles away from my babies - for 8 hours.

By god, I need to figure out how to do this Artist Thing full-time.
