Messy Eater

Apparently smearing your lunch all over a journal is a bit disgusting to some people.

Really, Who knew.

Today I had a wonderful lunch with some friends as Pier 7, on the North Vancouver waterfront. This is a very nice restaurant and might have been a little too fancy to pull out my wreckage journal in, but I did.

It was Lunch actually, and delicious!

I’m not sure what sort of impression I made on a few of the moms I was with, as this was the first time I had met them, when I smeared guacamole from our seafood nachos with my fingers. I highly doubt that crushing a tomato into the book, causing it to drip disgustingly all over the table has earn me some Facebook Friend requests.

But OMG it was fun finger painting with food!

But as we explained to our lovely waiter, “It’s therapy,” my friend said to him, “She’s working though some issues,” and laughed.

And, really it truly is and I truly am. I find that while creating destruction I am creating new things too. I am inspired to write, create art and to look at the world differently because of this book. As to the issues, well we all have those, if we look deep enough, and I’m able to vent some old frustration out on this book.

But, really I am fascinated about creation through destruction and enjoying coming up ideas about how I will continue to destroy this book.

OMG smearing food on this page was fun! 

I think I’ll take the jalapeño and cheese out of the book before it begins to smell though...
