can it really be so long since i've posted anything? terrible. i've thought about it so many times and i avoid it because i feel it doesn't make sense to try after so much time has lapsed...and i've been doubting that i have enough interesting thoughts to put out there for the world to see. is it embarassing that i thought i would be interesting and witty and intellectual enough to do this whole blog thing? oh, i suppose that's just my inner "Censor" talking. maybe it's partially true...but who cares? if i'm boring, so be it. i'm reading The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron...and it's giving me a lot to think about. it's a sort of workbook for artists (or creatives of any kind) to make their art a priority and gain confidence in it. i definitely need to continue reading.
in other aspects of life...still living in sock land for the 8-5, but tyring to get Gypsy Bird up and running again! a friend and i went to a craft show a few weeks ago that another friend was in, and we got really inspired. if all these people can do art and crafts and have the confidence and knowledge to make money at it...why not me? so...i'm entering a show this month, and hopefully i get in! i just need to: make more product, take great photos, build a website, get a tax ID #, get my etsy site up, figure out how to run a business...and i'm set! quite a daunting list. the lazy side of me wants to curl up in bed and read more vampire books (i'm obsessed...it's scary). but the artist side of me wants to challenge myself and do it! the doing is the only problem. but hey...i'm writing on my blog...that's an easy first step!
well, such are the ramblings of my crazy mind at the moment. maybe i can have some interesting stories or news to share soon.
