long time!

it's been so long since i've posted to this blog. sometimes i just forget about it because i get so involved other places. i graduated finally, and that was absolutely incredible! but what was almost as incredible was our time at the art star craft bazaar this weekend.

so yesterday and today art star happened. and it sucked a little bit because of the weather. there were supposed to be two other semi-large festival type events happening in the neighborhood and they were cancelled because it was raining fairly hard yesterday morning into the afternoon. but they kept art star on, and i think that's why there was hardly any traffic. people must have thought that it was cancelled. the weather was really awful yesterday though. people's tents were blowing over and away, displays were falling over, and it was COLD! so needless to say, it wasn't great. today was much, much better! but still slowish. they're going to have it on the raindate now, too, so if you couldn't make it out this time, come next time! it's june 24-25.











so even with the terrible weather, it was super fun to be there and see everyone, meet new faces, and do a lot of networking. we've received a number of invites to upcoming fairs and events, and met a ton of super cool people. mypapercrane, knittydirtygirl, artschooldropout, cherriebomb, and mr. pickles were there, to name a few. it was neat seeing them and/or fondling their things in person!

i was extra happy to meet rachel-marie (knittydirtygirl) because i've known her through forums and stuff for a while now. she's so cute and nice! she has a good picture of all of us together (cherriebomb, jessica, me, and her) taken at the end of the day today, so i'll link to it once she posts it.

so i feel good. happy. not rolling in the dollars, but happy! a girl came around handing out a thing for those of us in the area saying that they're thinking of having something similar to art star but every weekend. that would be awesome! so hopefully we'll be doing those too.

well i'm trying to get someone to drive up to brooklyn with me (DANIELLLEEEEE!!!) for renegade, so if you're going to be there, i hope to see you. if you saw me today, thanks for stopping by :-)
