Hoo boy.

Well!  Today started crappy & got significantly better.  All of those packets were a bust...all four.   Took the wind out of my sails & made me feel pretty sad.  But THEN, I got a call from Rumors...the mask gallery in New Orleans.  They were a bit late getting an order to me but boy, what an awesome first order.  

And now I'm in trouble, 'cause if I fill it right away, I'll have just about NO masks for Pennsic.  But, I don't want them to wait because being lazy or slow about getting your first order out, well...that can't make for a good first impression.

So.  I'm working like CRAZY right now.  The heck with charity events.  The heck with showering or eating, for that matter.  *joke*  Seriously though, I thought I was doing great budgeting my time left before Pennsic to finish up important projects & suddenly I'm going to be very freaking busy.  But, like my brother said, these are GOOD problems to have. 

By the way, kids.  If there was to be, say, an opening of my work at said gallery, with wine & cheese & jazz in the heart of the French Quarter...you think any of you might show up?  ;-D

I'm filling the order...you're right & it's certainly the smart thing to do. It'll still take time because they want a Medusa and I don't have one. I'm still working on your plaque and it WILL be finished even if it kills me (which it won't). :-) The dragon's already done...it's just the leaves that are slowing me down. It's going to be pretty cool though...pics just as soon as I have it all assembled!

I haven't seen a Medusa in a long time. They're really, really cool, but I seem to remember you saying that they're an awful lot of work.

Can't wait for the pics. And to be honest, I'm also looking forward to sitting at your booth and gloating over ownership! Small and petty of me, I know, but I'm like that...
