...is not how I am feeling at the moment. It all started with the thumb slicing. Fast forward to Friday...I am walking towards my desk, tea cup in hand, grasped by my fingers and bandaged thumb and then I don't remember what happened next. All that I can recall is the vision of my tea cup falling from my hand (slipped out of my grip because of the bandage) and no, not on my computer...yes on my computer...tea all over my computer. Folks funeral services for my trusty, ever faithful laptop will be held tomorrow at dawn. Please, no flowers, just well wishes and prayers that a new laptop will soon be mine. Not a good week for this black bird. I've had bad electronic luck for the past month. My digital camera died about three weeks ago and if it counts my blow drier died while I was trying to dry out said computer. This lovely bird saved me by lending me her extra camera, which I am extremely grateful for and my ever fabulous neighbor saved my butt by letting me use his laptop to finish my calendar which is due on Monday...holy crap!
On a brighter note, the work for my show is coming along swimmingly! I am doing my final firing this weekend and then I ship off all the goods on Monday. I will try to keep posting when I can but due to the sudden, unexpected death of my computer, it may be bit spotty.

at least the studio is going well!
thanks friends! the computer seems to have a last breath of life in it though i am not counting on it lasting too much longer:(
housemartin, the pieces on the wall are drawings i did in 2005. they are charcoal and gesso on cardboard.
so sorry about your week! i spilled a cup of coffee on my laptop once... a tragic moment (i also only remember that last second before it made contact!). so glad the show pieces are going well though... and such a lovely picture of you with your work!
Geez Diana...Mercury must be in retrograde! Hope this week will be much better for you.
