i feel scummy
i haven’t taken a shower in a day. yesterday i just got caught up running errands, framing my photos, and then cleaning. it seemed pointless to bother if i was cleaning. and then it was just so late that i went to bed.
i can’t find my birth certificate so i guess i have to go get a new one today. annoying errand. but necessary. i still have to find it, because i know it’s with the title to my car. somewhere.
off to shower. OPENING IS TONIGHT! i hope the weather holds out! they have a fab patio and i really want to wear my new red garden party shoes 
but what else to wear? i have no clue. it’s my very first photo opening.
hmmmmmmmm. suggestions??
buy them and my photo opening tomorrow :)
now i’m an advertisement. but i’m going to order a bunch. a different one for every day of the week. or maybe every day of the month. lol. i love the mean, sarcastic, bitter, humor. excellent
don’t forget my photo opening tomorrow evening from 6-9PM. it’s here, in case you were all wondering.
**note the exhibitions page and the directions page
dropped off my photos after frantically framing them today:
- clean glass
- clean frames
- screw in screws for wire
- string with hanging wire
- position photos in mats properly
- replace glass
- replace mats (double matted no less)
- replace backs
- wrap in tissue
- wrap in cardboard
- wrap in plastic
- clasp tightly to body to carry in and out of car (since have klutzy gene)
- done. whew!
see you all there tomorrow

signing books at the public libr. i really enjoyed hearing him speak about his process as a writer. i could relate to some of what he said. i particularly liked that he said he cannot start a new book until he knows what the first line will be. he could wait months for that first line, before he can begin. i know what he means, i think. i will sometimes spend months “thinking” about a story or a chapter, before i can start it. i can’t do it until i know how to start. seriously, i know there are people who can write everyday but i’m not one of them. i DO write every day, just not the novel. there’s always some form of writing every single day, but it’s not necessarily focused on the novel or a short story i’m working on. this is why. i can’t write until i know where to start and where i am going and i have to think about it a long time sometimes. anyway. he made me feel better by saying this.
oh yeah, and he lives part of the time in NYC and part of the time in Paris.
**jealous**
i started a new chapter today, as a matter of fact…
i know i sound like a baby
but i think it’s cyber rude when you bother to comment somewhere and the author of the blog responds to other people’s comments but not to yours. isn’t that silly ofme? but i’m a scorpio and we scorpios are like this. it feels like i’ve been slighted.
if i get comments, i either don’t say anything (mainly because if i don’t do it immediately upon viewing, then i forget about it) or i say something to everyone who’s commented. not that i get a lot of comments.
there are a lot of lurkers out there. speak up.
i promise to respond.
chicago in august
i’ve just purchased my tickets to go to chicago in august yippee! i’m excited. i have never been. i’ll be staying with my twin soul matthew, and seeing my cuz J and her new little one and husband. any suggestions on places to visit, as i will be solo during the afternoons (everyone works), let me know i am however, very easily amused, and can wander for hours by myself. so it shant be an issue.
i’m psyched something to look forward to
i arrive on the 5th and leave late on the 11th
