8:25pm, Art Museum Drive and Wyman Park Drive, Baltimore, MD

I was cranky after leaving work (new gig) to take the Marc back to Baltimore. DC felt too clean, too rule-oriented, too policed. Maybe that's a boundary I will confront with this project but for right now, Nah. I imagined another site if it were to rain (forecast has been calling for rain). I settled on this site for a few reasons: I used to work at the BMA, I like these bright white lights and that's it. All day I've been reminding myself to start with the hips. More intention is needed in the project. I did a month... NBD. Second month and life routines change and I am FEELING CHALLENGED. Commit to a prompt every day. Begin to have a site in mind and play it by ear from there. Warm up a little bit. Make noise with your vocal chords. Today felt releasing. I need to feel a little release. I'm definitely fighting some anxieties/over-thinking life. Back and forth and back and forth. How can I love Baltimore and leave it? IF this project is a series of sketches, what is a more finished version? Thinking about city lighting in Baltimore. Day thirty-six.
