lite brite injury

so....let's talk about lite brites for a minute.

there's a gallery in virginia that is doing a show on art made from/about/homage to toys.

i was going to cobble lite brites together (i tallied up 6 from various thrift stores) and i was going to make a big robot.

the problem was 1)time: i gots none 2) when you spend all day making stuff and finding stuff for other people, it's sucky to come home and have to make stuff for yourself. not completely, but sometimes....a girl just needs to relax. so it was due saturday, and i wasn't happy with it, so i didn't enter it.

i *did* however, step on the business end of a lite brite peg on my floor on saturday night.

let me tell you...it's quite a sensation pulling a neon green lite brite peg from the bottom of your foot at 3 am. it went in pretty far too. about as far as it would have gone on a lite brite screen.

but i feel ok today. it doesn't hurt to step on my foot any longer.

i think i'm going up to my parents house for a few vacation-y days next week, and i can't wait. i also can't wait until this show, or at least this director/designer team are out of my frigging hair.

chris McD called yesterday, asking if she can sleep over tuesday night on her way from NYC to durham north carolina, and lea will be pausing in dc going from tampa florida to NYC on wednesday night. i feel like i'm running a motel. it would be so cool if the three of us could be in DC together, but i think my apartment would be super small for that.

i need to get to work on those papers.

xoxo
