TGIF

Yep,
The work week is over - well almost. i have my other job(s) to work on this weekend...it doesn't seem to end, not with my heating bill at $333 last month. yikes. i might have to advertise for a roommate. Well, that probably wouldn't work right now, but maybe i just need to sell a little more jewelry along w/the day job. ebay, i might have to do ebay.

Dinner w/the folks tonight was good. shrimp stirfry.

i don't know if i have a lot to write tonight, but as i was coming home, i was thinking about trying a new writing venue. I read about picking cafes, or other places to sit and write. Now, i've been into some Starbucks and Caribous here that look promising - except that everyone seems to be surreptitiously looking at everyone else....and they don't seem to get up and move around much. Like i might have to go early and stake out a seat, or something. i think some of my local cafes are like that - but the one in buckhead seems that way. it seems almost like a club, and i should have a laptop if i want to fit in. plus, i might find myself staring at the fire a lot. space cowgirl.

Well, it's a thought. Once i sat at a cafe - and i think it was a starbucks - a couple of years ago and wrote an outline for a class that i came up with during one of my marathon baths. It is called Spiritual Communication - and i think i robbed ideas from a few of the seminars i had gone to and put them together as an interactive class on communication. So far, i haven't had the opportunity to try to teach it. Plus, it's a couple of years old now...maybe someday it will come in handy and come out of hibernation.

Sometimes i get my best design ideas in the shower. My clients like jewelry that they can retail under 40. Coming up with designs in semi-precious stones, pearls & swarovski crystal and sterling for under 40 can be a challenge. Unfortunately, it seems as though the competition has gotten the better of me lately. I have to get some new stuff done and photographed soon for the spring show applications.

I get some interesting ideas w/water. Maybe that's why i've been jones-ing for a hottub.
