Back from AC!
I had a really good time! I mean really, really!
I would say that I now have a little more perspective and inspiration! It was very motivating to see all the artists at work. It was awesome to hang with friends. I mean, socializing and meeting new people is HARD WORK for me, haha, I feel like I just ran a marathon. It's all good though. People I hung with were really nice and chiillll...
My first day there, I WENT TO FURRRRRNANDO'S lol. and then... and then...
We hung out in the zoo and sketched and I tried to remember how to draw on paper, and bitched about there being no ctrl-Z in real life.
On Friday, I got into the Artist Alley, and found out I am a horrible salesman!
haha but thanks to some help from my table-neighbor, Zippiner, I think I made out alright!
On Saturday I was a huge slacker and slept in and didn't go the AA. I regretted it a little, but sleep was... needed. So I dropped off a painting commission, and just kind of meandered around the dealer's den and artist alley and chatted with some of the artists. I got Jimmie John's sammiches, which is a chain we don't have here in NYC, so that was a treat. I got some Starbucks with Karn. I watched the parade! I bought things. I had sushi boat!!! Time flew by, I can't even remember... But I DO remember, we watched fireworks, and ate s'mores, and drank BEER and WHISKEY and smelled the aroma of fine cigar smoke, and tried NOT TO FALL IN THE RIVER. In fact, it was a good thing I saved my energy because I wouldn't have be able to hop around and "dance" like I did at the drum dance whatever-majig after the fireworks. Oh man, that was a good show, some Pittsburgh natives even joined in briefly. Was that all the same day?
Sunday I was sad, because I had to leave that afternoon so I could get back to NYC on time for work today and all, but it was nice day, finally a sunny day in Pittsburgh. We got some breakfast from the Steel City Diner, the foood! I suffered food coma afterward. hahah whatev. I pretty much left without much ado! Sorry I didn't say goodbye to everyone. I had to rush to catch the shuttle. I even forgot about dropping off my room key. D:
It was great staying with beanie and tresch and mauricia and joeypoey! It goes without saying but, YOU GUYS ARE THE COOLEST.
But you know who's also cool? Here's who. All the people I got to stop and say a few words to...
savicorm, tomhoshino, blitz, opiumrevolution, richek, trianine, cypherwulf, karn, zippener, akhkahna, arphalia, psuedomanitou, ursula, missmonster, seely, skulldog, dingbat!!! You all made quite an impression! I'm probably forgetting like 50 billion other people, and if I left you out, no srlsy, remind me harshly. XD Eff this journal post, thanks to those who I got to hang out with! SEE YOU NEXT YEAR! and on the INTERWEBS YAAAY!!!
