11:41 pm	It's about time... YAY RAIN!!!! :)!!! Lots of running around lately. Been taking care of holiday stuff between spouts of socializing. Off to LA tomorrow, where I will most likely be for the rest of the year. I've been loving the weather, my awesome friends, my ever cool neighbor, my spectacular roomie, my cabin, & my redwoods! I've been having a hard time keeping my head above water lately, but really, I have a blessed life. Need more tea & book time. I'm looking forward to my LA trip! Lots of friends & family to enjoy time with! I'm also looking forward to starting the new year with lots of book, tea, & art time. January plans are already in the works, :). Hope everyone's having a wonderful holiday season! Current Mood: busy (8 Comments |Comment on this)

3:00 am	Fangirl Moment Work continues to be interesting. I'm helping with a couple different projects now, casting resin & drybrushing zombie magnets as well as airbrushing masks. Bossman is wonderful, as are the other people who hang out at the shop. Just walking around the shop & seeing all the neat things Spectral Motion has & is working on is fun! I work for Bossman, not Spectal Motion, but he works for them & they let him rent space to work on his own projects. These people are creative & cool, but so are so many of my friends, so it took me till yesterday to get that fangirl jump in my stomach, :). Yesterday I got to drybrush some beautiful statues for Guillermo del Toro. I didn't get to meet him, my bother & his Bossman had a meeting with Guillermo del Toro that afternoon & delivered them to him when they went, but somehow knowing that he liked them & would be displaying something I helped paint in his house made me happy, :).
