don't stop me now.....

[[[I'm a shooting star leaping through the sky
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go go go there's no stopping me
I'm burning through the sky yeah
Two hundred degrees that's why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you]]]


That song always makes me vaguely sad. They played it in Love Actually during a funeral scene, so I think that's why. It always reminds me of how fragile life is. But I really do love it.........

I went to Barne's and Noble and bought the newest issue of Somerset Studio. I'm reading it very slowly, savoring it. I also bought a small guide to flowers that cost me 4 bucks. I'm going to use that for an art project. Unfortunately they didn't have a copy of my friend Margaret's new book Duchess of Aquitaine.

I also found this really cool website: fetopia. They make these really cute beads that are shapped like fetuses, sorta, but with their own little personalities. They're made out of clay. They're so cute!!!!!!

We got Karen Eckmeier to come teach 3 classes at the shop. Before they were announced to the general public, they were already full. Now we're considering adding more dates on. I'm in her happy villages workshop! It's the one that was on the cover of the most recent Quilting Arts magazine.

According to the World Health Organization, there are approzimately 100 million acts of sexual intercourse everyday. Interesting, eh?

So now I'm sitting here listening to music (currently Coconut by Harry Nilsson) and listening to it thunder on and off.............

????

are my expectations of people rediculously high? i mean, i know that i set my standards high, but are they rediculous. especially at work. i figure, if i can work an eight or ten hour day, do $1000 dollars in business, and still get everything on the list done, why can't everyone else? is it because i don't want my mom to have to do it? is it because i really don't like people (nothing personal to anyone) and will sit back at the desk and do everything?!?!?!? do i have more energy than everyone else. or is it not rediculous to expect that when someone works a 4 hour shift, and i work 8 hours or more, that they can keep up with me for those four hours? this isn't directed at anyone. i love all of my co-workers, but do i expect rediculous feats from them???




[[[[Hey
You're crazy b****]]]]

ahhhh, well

That New Year's resolution didn't go to well. I think this is going to be my everything blog now. There's not to much art getting done right now. We are trying to move, so most of my wire, beads, fabric, etc are packed(so I'm just buying more). Tonight I had a quilt guild meeting, so I came with one of these to play with. I just doodled a little sun on the front so far.
Today I went shopping! I got this really cool hand cuff bracelet. I bought it to use for artwork, but unfortunately I actually liked it for myself. I also bought a happy bunny t-shirt. It says "I hate everything" on it. It was so me and on sale, so I thought it would be cool.
Yesterday was graduation!!!! Selina graduated with honors. She was in the Beta club, the Math Honors Society(?), and graduated International Baccalaureate with honors. Pretty smart eh? She's going to UVA next year, thank heaven, because I don't know what I'd do with her farther away then that. Christine graduated with honors, and International Baccalaureate. She was in the Beta Club, Math Honors Society, and the Spanish Honors Society. Oh yeah, and she was in Model UN. I hope I got that right. She's going to Princeton!

Here's a picture of (l-r): Evan(Selina's boyfriend), Sarah(Selina's cousin), Selina, and me!


And Selina, Me, and Christine!


Once I get the pictures of Selina, Sarah and I in the convertable, I will post those too.

Unfortunately I'm having serious issues lately. I'm mad at everybody. There was one person tonight that I really wanted to kill. That and someone who was in class on Sunday that made me cry. Urgh............I hate people.
