"Oh Lord, you give us everything at the price of fatigue!" ~ Leonardo da Vinci
Ok so... long week... longer weekend. I'm exhausted and still have more stuff to do. In two days I've driven over 300 miles by myself. I feel like someone took a sledgehammer to my body when I wasn't looking. Just now got home from Berry College. My roommate from last year graduated today, and I'm so proud of her. Just wish Berry wasn't so far away. So I made the three hour drive up there, did the graduation thing, and made the three hour drive back home. And can I just say that tights are manufactured in hell? I mean, jeez. Those things are evil. Always falling down or rolling up or getting those stupid lines in them. Evil evil evil. Ok. Yeah.
So anyway... Spent a hundred dollars at Hobby Lobby yesterday buying graduation presents and birthday presents and Christmas presents... not to mention supplies for my jewelry. Found some really cool pieces for steampunk jewelry so I can expand on my "Pistols and Pearls" collection. Keys, locks, gears, etc. We'll see how that goes.
Been doing some clay stuff in what little spare time I've had. Finished round two of a commissioned piece which I accidentally broke immediately after completing it a week ago. That's kind of how my life goes. Also carried out my first experiment with the flower inclusions. I'm pleased with the texture but not so much with the color. Continuing my experiments now. I'll try to post pictures sometime soon.
And for those of you waiting to see new portraits, I'm sorry to say that I can't complete anything until I get some new drawing supplies for Christmas. Hopefully I'll get something churned out before 2011.
That's all for now. Congrats to Jess and Emma for graduating, glad I got to see you for five minutes Amanda, had fun eating lunch with the lovely Smith sisters, sorry I missed you Fakhria, and love to all you random people reading this. I'm going to go crash into the couch now.
