Mean Reds

I've got a mild case of the mean reds lately, which is another way of saying I am very much looking forward to the upcoming three day weekend.

My inner child is throwing a nasty tantrum. I tried to bribe it by eating chocolate chips directly from the bag and washing it down with two lite franks, but no dice. My inner child wants booze.

UPS tried to deliver the 3 packages today but didn't try very hard. They left two info notices. One was labeled with my info but a dud number and the other was completely blank with a valid number. I just don't understand.

As expected I was rejected for the first festival I applied for. I'm not surprised because I didn't have a booth photo when I applied, so I improvised poorly. Plus I set my prices lower than I wanted, so it's kind of a relief. Just shows how important it is to have a good presentation and think these things through. I am thankful though that the process of applying to that festival kicked me into gear and forced me into pursuing photo sales seriously. After sending in that application I got my business license, invested in a great booth, and came up with a real plan, so I'm actually thankful that it happened. Next year though, they better watch out. I'll be ready.

Christy, I really enjoy reading this blog. I'm amused by your writing and your theories on Icy Hot. Also I get to feel like I have a vicarious hobby, without all the annoying work and expense. I will say though that I would like to see some pornographic ASCII art occasionally.

Danf, I appreciate your comments. I wish I could indulge your request for erotic ASCII art, but sadly I was never able to do the artform justice. Eventually I gave it up (as well as the domain) in disgrace. But I am glad there are some who remember those heady days of +++===_.
