More on that sketch in a bit. Earlier in the week, i got the most epic woe that the sketch i'd done and sent out to The Ways was infact lost forever. Cause come on, it seemed all kinds of shady that there was nothing about it's whereabouts from USPS till the day after i emailed them to find out what the fuck was going on and then all of a suuden it was like HAAAY, IT'S IN LA! DON'T WORRY! so i didn't trust them at all. So, this week i got properly upset (i cried a little...i do that like, all the time lately though) that it was lost forever and it sucked so bad cause i was proud of it and had spent a lot of time on it and WHY ARE THINGS NEVER SIMPLE?!
Then i kind of kicked my own ass a bit and told myself to get over it cause others have proper issues to deal with and im being a child and should just make a start on something else and try again.
THEN...yesterday when i got home from work, the USPS tracker status for the item said DELIVERED and i freaked out, wanted to throw up and got all shakey in the hands/arms but still didn't totally believe it but really hoped it was at it's destination even though that was giving me the fear too. NO ONE CAN WIN WITH ME! Anyway, i got a message from Lindsey little after 1am last night/this morning and i was CRAZY asleep and thought i'd dreamt it and for some reason woke again around 4am to check my phone and saw it wasn't a dream and my art had for real been delivered/collected and there were lots of !!! and omg it's going
Im sure people are all DUDE JUST STFU ALREADY though you are too nice to say it. It's just a big deal and i never really thought anything would come of it after Lindsey asked after a piece and now here we are and fuck it, i am excited by it. And i still feel like a lucky fucker.
So, aside from that, fuck all else has gone on in my life. I got to make a tiny little flag (something like 21 inches x 14 inches) with a cartoon bat design on it at work. It was pretty cute and a difficult task as i had to work out all the layers for the applique and how the design was going to go together, what i had to cut back to and such. And it came out really well. Think i've finally figured out this multi-layer applique thing a bit better.
That sketch at the top was a little something for
