I went to the “casual artists’ reception” for the altered book thing – it was a little awkward ’cause I didn’t know who to talk to but everybody was very nice. I only stayed for like half an hour because I had dance class but as I was leaving I was told that originally They were only going to put the top 3 books in the special collection, but They liked them all so much that all the books will be offered a spot. I like my book but I’m not THAT attached to it – so yay, I’ll be in the special collection. I’m not sure what that means – probably that they’ll be shoved in a vault somewhere and never see the light of day again, but still, it sounds neat.
So that’s that!
My brother is coming up tomorrow night and I’m going to DC this weekend; I’m working on my costume and my dancing and also I go to some job 5 days a week. I’m usually That Overachievery Girl Who Has Time for Everything but lately I find myself with far too little! I make up for it by carrying around a notebook – not something I’ve ever done before since I have a pretty good memory, but I currently don’t have the time to dump everything on the page at the end of the day like I used to. So now I just do it throughout the day. It’s working pretty well actually – I have tons of fragment-seeds that are growing in mah brainz. I’m OK with the lack of time because I’m just doing other things right now – I’ll come back to my journals and books soon enough.

It’s an honor to have been chosen no matter what. Are you familiar with Patty at River Bend Ranch? She does altered art…a link to hers is on my blog. Cheers,
