Reach out touch faith

So I bought new underwear and socks yesterday and let me tell you, they feel excellent.
The socks have "arch support", which doesn't really work for me because I am flat footed, but it still feels nice and snug.

Yesterday Pat freaked out on me for wearing underwear out of the package. He said they spray this chemical on them that gives you cancer?
My favorite part of new underwear is wearing them out of the package... what if he is right?!?!

What if my lady bits get cancer from my underwear?! Oh no!

I cannot believe that it is already april 10th.
I have 7 days to get my art star application together...
I also have to get ready for a show that is 39 days away. I have nothing to put in it yet... crazy. I really need to get into gear because I do not want to put old work into this show.

I miss being a print shop tech. It was really fun and I got to work on the presses all day. Last summer was really insane because I was working 3 "real" jobs and than building my studio... This summer I am getting paid salary to work 20 hours a week. I am trying to get a second job for the summer because I don't know what to do with all this time. I am going to ask my cousin cathy to teach me how to bartend, so when I move to pittsburgh I can try to get a job doing that. That way I will have all day to make art and can work most nights.

I just realized that if I do get into CMU that I will be in Pittsburgh for four years. I hope I can handle that small of a city for that long. The last year of the grad program you spend in another country, so I guess it won't be that bad.
I am starting to make list of what I need to sell and what needs to be thrown away.
That includes people!
yikes.

Last night was pretty amazing, Rachael, Rory and I made the Wing-ageddon tee shirts. They are fantastic. I decided on going with the name "Lil Left Wing"
actually I think it is worth posting all the Wing-Ageddon names

1) The Wing Reaper (Pat)
2) Wingie the Pooh (Rachael)
3) Wolverwing (Bob)
4) John Wing Gacy (Greg)
5) Dr. Martin Luther Wing Jr. (Harold)
6) Wingie Wonka (Rory)
7) Lil Left Wing (Lea)
8) Wing Bone (Shawna)
9) "Wingus" Khan (Dustin)

More tee shirts were made, but they did not create names yet.
It was really fun, until 1 in the morning, and I still had to bike home.
We did watch Pootie Tang while making the shirts, and Rachael ordered cheese fries, so I overall pretty great night. The more I think about it yesterday was fantastic. Bob and I went and got burritos, and he bought me ice cream from Rita's (don't believe their size chart a kiddie cone is HUGE). Walking to Rachael's bob was telling me a story and as we walked by this guy tending to flowers in a pot outside of his house, if you looked down HIS WHOLE BUTT was showing... Bob made a comment as we walked by, pretending it was part of the story, and says "the balls were all out"!
We both looked down at this man's exposed ass and I lost it.

That kind of stuff always happens to me and bob. I mean we are always seeing old man butt. Especially bob

I think the only stink part of yesterday was getting razed by my friends for wearing "the chump suit".
I am a real push over, I mean I am assertive and outspoken, etc. etc., but when someone is in need no matter how crappy they have been I jump right to it.

I mean my friends know that I just really like helping people, but sometimes it gets old hearing about how much of a "sucker" I am.
I forget that most people have negative agenda's in life. Why would I want to keep something like that in mind? Why would I want to condition myself to be cautious of people. I am sure in the long run it would save me a lot of headache's and heartache's but it just doesn't seem worth it.

That last paragraph actually makes me seem defenseless. That is not the case, I am very careful of who I let into my life, but once they are in, they are really in.

Oh well.
This is becoming a long post, for a slow day.
I have actually walked away from it, come back to it and start writing again.
So if this seems disjointed, well that is why.
Not that anyone reads through these things. They scroll down them, look for their name, and continue on.

I write all my personal dirt in my real journal, so the scroll down method will not work this time!

I will end this on this note...

it is 10:10
make a wish!
