Someone put up a YouTube video of the September ArtWalk where me and T had tables. If you pause at 7 seconds you get a clear shot of me, T and G.
I'm actually really glad to see this, since I didn't get to walk around much. (except for the time B & P watched my table - THANKS!)

The truth about the rain
is how it falls. ~ Dar Williams
Been listening to Beauty of the Rain again lately. Found my CD case, so weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! "new music". I had Norah Jones in the CD player upstairs forever, good schtuff, but yeah. been hearing some lyrics it ways I hadn't before, always cool.
I'm so pissed at this YELLOW GUIDE or more specifically the images in it, not coming out nice and crispy when I convert it to PDF. I don't understand. I thought that was the whole point of PDF, that it didn't change anything. whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Suck.
And the other totally not fun thing is the financial bit of all this advertising crap. It's been so badly organized, and it's really hard to catch up, but every time I wait, it's another month of stuff to catch up on. but I don't want this to be one of those weekends where I don't get to do anything fun.
Well, that's not totally true. I did get to have fun last night. Went to watch "Small Town Reality", and then came home and made a chocolate/coffee cake and Nandi, Jyoti, Merlin (and eventually Patrick) came over and we played UNO attack and Hearts and ate cake and drank tea. Nandi was bummed because we didn't go bowling. poop. But they didn't call me until like 10:20, and I didn't want to spend the whole evening waiting for something to happen and be bummed, which is why I started making the cake. Sure nuff, just as I'm pouring the batter in, the phone rings... sigh. But I think it was a nice time here, and didn't get all smokey. Maybe next weekend for bowling or something.
Grrrr. Even if I go do something fun, I'll feel guilty because all this stuff I said I would get done on Friday didn't happen... crap.
And everyone blew off improv tonight. Lovely. I guess I don't mind so much, but I MIGHT have gone up to see Jennie's play if I'd known ahead of time. Collin didn't even come back. snot. Ok. Long enough break. back to work.

wow
today I was soooo tired and miserable. ugh. and staying up right now to do this won't help anything tomorrow really. But yuck.
Good thing - both the AQ and the YG are at the printers. No more to do about them, onscreen anyway. Now I have to enter all the addresses for mailing, because that is the whole point of printing so many extra, to mail them out... I have learned a lot I didn't know, and it was cool to see the blueline of the AQ printed out all big and stuff! weeeee! I only ever saw it tiny on my screen, or really tiny printed out...
Got my oil changed, free car wash, and vacuumed out my car too! Dropped of Wally's cards at the At Home store, and we'll see what Rosie says. Maybe she will take a few, and I could get The Antique Flower Garden to take some too... I think that would be 2 good places to sell them... Sorta different clientel prolly. Yeah. Hope that works out.
Cried a lot at work today. Dad came in to tell me something and asked what was the matter... Saw a documentary of Joni Mitchell last night, which make me all sad about not doing my music. She talked about one of her grandmothers who kicked a door off the hinges because she was so creatively frustrated, and how her other grandmother was too, and she felt like maybe she was the one to break the cycle... G was talking tonight about how I should get out of here. But I don't know where/when/why/how... If I had a really good reason or thing to do, well then, maybe, but it would be so hard to be away from him, and besides, I don't know what I'd do really... The blessed boy doesn't know what it is to be miserable. Says he has tried but can't do it. Just to see what it is that other people go through. Amazing. Enjoy that. Be blessed!
I also told my dad we were thinking of June '05, & he said that he loved G, and approved, but was that what I wanted? Was G committed to it? cue Heather thinking about ring again. I get in such a tizzy over it, because I know it's too much to ask for financially at this point, but I really want some symbol/declaration of commitment, something to hold on to so I know it's for serious. What if I mess up? What if he changes his mind? Where would I be/what would I do without him??? I mean, heaven forbid, and I don't think it's gonna happen, but sometimes it's good to check in with worst case scenario... I was having the same "what do I do with myself and my creativity is being suffocated to pay the bills" situation in Boulder too, and I was really lonely. He's so comfortable and fun to be with. I was in such a powerful space when we first met. Even despite the heartbreak, I was ok with just feeling it, knowing it would pass eventually. And like I said, even if I wasn't everything I wanted to be, I had the energy to go after it, make it happen... Where'd it go? I've gained nearly all the weight back again - to me a sign of how miserable I must be. But I just ignore it and dull out the pain with food. My dad is suggesting going to the Raj. G doesn't think I'll be able to follow through with the recommendations so why spend the money... I'm so lost. Seems like every time with this weight stuff I try a new tactic, instead of sticking to one thing and making it work... but whatever, god I hate myself right now. Nothing fits. Getting dressed isn't fun. It's whatever I can find on my floor or bed that doesn't smell. I feel so fucking worthless. And it's not just the weight. The weight is a physical expression of something bigger and deeper.
No improv for a couple of weeks... :P Spring Break, so for sure no one will show up. We really, really need to do a show... and/or get some more people involved....
I downloaded me some songs from Wal-Mart.com. yay. legal new music without buying a whole album... Don't shoot me, they're cheap there - 88 cents! I've decided this should be my new treat, instead of candy or cookies, for the same price I might spend on something sweet, I can have a song, and it lasts much longer!

My fingernails have gotten long on my left hand
That's usually a bad sign. It means I haven't played guitar in quite a while. I have to have them mega short when I play so I can fret and they don't get in the way of the strings and all, but when the nails get long... I'm bummed, I hope I get to a point where music is a daily part of life, but I'm not sure when that's gonna happen yet.
I think I meet with Stacey today about the artwalk stuff. I really hope I can do all of this. Not sure though, because thus far I've gone to dad's in the morning, and mom's after lunch, or done catering in the pm, and mom's in the evening, or done mom's in the pm, and catering in the evening. I think keeping Entre for lunch twice a week will be a good thing though, cuz thinking ahead to moving out, which is part of the plan, having 2 really good meals a week plus an ittle bits of cash would be a good thing... and I would have to go to lunch no matter what, so might as well be there. But adding a whole new ArtWalk job could be a wee bit tricky. Although she saw it as potentially 3 jobs, maybe it would shake down that I just do one of them? Like the YELLOW GUIDE (always in all caps ;) ) who knows? "Not I," said the cat.
Crap, looking at the calendar, this weekend is going to be packed! I actually don't know if I can do all of it. Dang. Collin's play, Jennie's play, improv performance? Lucia's workshop, collage workshop. Plus I need to make sure the brochures get all printed for the show, which means running back and forth between printers at home and work. aaaaaaaakkk! I need to sit down and figure this thing out!
