Keeps Getting Away
Jul. 21st, 2006 06:33 amThe week, that is.
I have two interviews with galleries this week, one, them interviewing me, the other, me interviewing them. I have studio walk through on Saturday.
My calendar has exploded in my face.
I am no longer hyperventilating. That was yesterday. Today, I am nice and peaceful and calm. Granted, I also got a massage last night, followed by a bath and a full night's sleep, which probably has way more to do with it all than anything else.
I'm rather boggled by it all. I've been working steadily and there have been nibbles of interest, but this has been a fabulous development. I'm nervous, but in the good, excited way, not the, I'm in over my head.
Okay, there's a little of that too, but I'm okay with that. I think it's time to get back in over my head. I've been living life too safe for too long and that's no way to succeed. Safe is safe. Success and going for your dreams, requires risk. And realizing that when you fail, there's still no other game in town, so you might as well get up again and get back in it. It's better than sitting at home alone on a Saturday night.
Excitement. I'd almost forgotten what it felt like. I like it.

In the rest of the world, day job has been wracked by stupidity of others all week. I will say no more on it.

The Mouse has had a rough week this week. Aside from being sick, she has clearly come to the realization that she is no longer a baby, she is a small person, and oh my gods! Separate from us. She's been very clingy and very unhappy. She's also hit a quantum jump in brainpower again and just isn't getting enough stimulation sitting around the house.
So, she's off to MyGym tomorrow for tumbling and madness with other toddlers! I think it's what she really wants, just doesn't know how to ask for. She's seemed lonely to me this week and bored. Here's hoping that this will do the ticket. The Divine Auntie B is taking her.
My little social Mouse just wants time to play with all the other little mice. I know how she feels. I've got to get some play time in for myself soon.
In the meantime, the husband is working insane hours at the job, game having gone into Beta. It's pretty looney what he's going through right now, even more so than what he went through on The Movies and Rome: Total War. But this is also the first console title he's ever worked and there's a big difference from how PC titles are developed.
However, he gets to come home this weekend and work from home, so we'll get to see him. Yay!
There's way more in my head, but we don't need to be here all day.
Have a great one, everyone! It's Friday!
