Back and forth

So last night I went back to the studio for the first time in 2 months. Boy, did I suck. I did not make a single thing worth firing. In fact, I didn't even manage to throw anything that didn't go flying off into strange contorted shapes (and subsequently, back into the recycle bucket).

Luckily, I did find some completed pieces from the semester before I went to Hong Kong to salve my pride and remind me that I can actually do things right. And hey, I liked them!

By the way, I'd like to "give a special shout out the my peeps," they who enabled me to enroll for this semester! Thanks, gang!

And in other news, I have gotten to the e-mail/phone call stage with some gentlemen from That Site, one of whom I'm about to give the heave ho to. I don't understand how someone can go from "hmmm...potentially interesting and fun" to "ohmigod, he works my last nerve"...all before I even met him! How timely it is to get this newsletter (I subscribe to it for statistical charts) in my inbox this morning: Online Daters Find It Tough to Click

After some navelgazing with my trusty Pearl of Wisdom (PoW), I think I figured it out: he reminds me of the worst qualities in both myself and my mother -- quite an impressive feat, if you think about it. As PoW pointed out, my anger with him is somewhat disproportionate to his annoying qualities, and you know what they say about things in others which drive us most apesh*t... Now I just have to figure out a respectful way to tell him to GO AWAY!

I'm hoping that the next few guys will be somewhat more well-adjusted. Oy.
