This week was busy, busy busy. It’s strange, every time I go to class, they give me more work to do. Imagine that? I am really relieved that I quit my job because I still don’t have enough time to do everything. I’m just chugging away like the little engine that could, and trying to…

I had a presentation last Thursday on Julia Morgan, the architect from San Francisco. I’ve uploaded it if you are interested. If you don’t know who Julia Morgan is, you should, especially if you are a women or live in the SF bay area. If I weren’t so tired. I’d tell you more about here…

Happy birthday to me Originally uploaded by angrypirate. My work got me a cake! It’s a very sad day today, but a day full of relief as well. I told my work I couldn’t work there anymore. I spent the day training a new person to take my place. I thought I could work there…

Hi, I’m back from camping. It was fun but two days isn’t long enough. I was so wiped out saturday night, I didn’t make it through Victoria William’s set. The competition for sleep over her music was too great and sleep won out. We went to Herst castle. I’m doing a presentation on it thursday…

Between last night’s 6 hour studio class and today’s class fieldtrip for 6 hour to pick up materials, I am wiped out. I had a cookie and a soda on the lawn. Just three more hours of math and it’s time to head back over th bridge. I’ve got to pack for our camping trip…

This is what the inside of my brain looks like right now. I’ve been having panic attacks. I know! It’s only been one week since school started. I am having to face realities that I don’t want to face. I really like my job, and I don’t want to leave. I feel so lucky to…

My Friday class was completely awesome as well. We spun wool yarn from a sheep my teacher was acquainted with. It smelled like driving around in Ireland. Friday’s class is intro to textiles and I think it’s going to be a great end to my weeks. I have just one more class to begin and…

My second day of school was great. I am loving CCA and loving my teachers. The whole college is Mac friendly. You are expected to have a Mac laptop to do class presentations. All digital baby! I am taking a math class that is all concepts and philosophy about space. It’s going to be great.…

On my way home Originally uploaded by angrypirate. I finished up my first day at school a little early. I had time to see the new student exhibition and ran into a friend on college ave. Everyone is so friendly and warm. Its a bit overwhelming. I’m so shy sometimes and I felt myself struggling…

School is finally starting! I have my first class tonight from 4 to 10. It’s also the new student exhibition reception tonight. Hopefully I can sneak out of class for a bit to see it. The rest of the week I’m in classes. It’s going to be strange transitioning from full-time work to full-time school,…

I got tons done this weekend and snuck in some leisure time to boot. I’ve been working on some 4″x6″ encaustics for the fall season and I got pretty far along with 5 of them. Plus lots more production of little canvases. The one you see here is for the Artspan Open Studios Exhibition at…

On campus all day Originally uploaded by angrypirate. I’m spending the day on campus, getting used to cca.
