@ the Office

I have returned to 'the bridge' for a spell and am doing double duty in the computer lab. I forgot the one part of the old job I really missed; tutoring. I have not tutored in two years, since the last stint at the mentor desk in the lab. Yes it has been two years since I sat at this desk, broke my first bone [link], sported a 'blue-star-mom' banner, had short hair and actually taught someone something useful to benefit their life.

On a brighter note, back in June just before the first ArtWalk show, I accidentally sprayed some of my jewelry with white paint instead of clear coat. I could not get all the paint off a couple of pieces, so I processed them with a patina. At the August ArtWalk the second of those pieces sold. I'm pretty happy they were not a total waste as they are made of a particular copper fiber I cannot easily replace. I was so exhausted I did not take pictures this month. [link to flickr]

The other show I was supposed to do in July has been reschedualed for September at Bethlehem Lutheran Church on Commerce St. I am looking forward to that show. I am not in as much of a panic as I was in July; I have more than enough stock to show at two different locations without short changing either location.

In October, I will be donating a piece for auction at the annual Heartside Gala. Egyptian Coil will be the thing. I'd like to create a necklace or collar of that pattern however I am running low on wire of the correct gague in copper. Perhaps there is enough brass wire? {note to self . . .}

Somehow I am missing a beautiful summer here, what happened?

Joining VagrantMemories

Hello, hello? Is this thing on?
Urbansurvivor here. WBF invited me to become a guest columnist a year and a half ago. I'm just now getting around to joining. If you have cruised over to the Urbansurvivor, you probably have read a rant or two. If not, you can read a little about the things that set me off, various interests and my newsfeed on Bloglines RAW. Oh wait, you can do that here as well.

VagrantMemories & Urbansurvivor's points of view sometimes clash. I do not anticipate a 'he said, she said' type of exchange but you never know. If you are bored by now, check out the Heartside.Tribe over on Tribe.net. Interesting independent art over there. Check out some of the other tribes associated with Heartside as well.

Ok, how'd I do? I certainly hope we passed the audition.
