Jon and I got up early today and walked down to the voting facility which was held in a high school gym. It was easy-peasy. In and out in 10 minutes.
I am heading to the UWS tonight to hopefully celebrate Obama/Biden's victory with Saramanda at a Columbia bar.
I'm taking another improv class at UCB (Upright Citizen's Brigade) and it's proving to be difficult, but a great learning experience. The first class I was so nervous I almost crawled out of my own skin. But yesterday, the second class, went a little better. I made a lot of mistakes, but I also risked more so I will take that happily.
I have Curtis Gwinn as a teacher and enjoy his comments. He is not going to sugar coat anything... he will tell you when you make a mistake or wander off-track. But he seems to be fair in his criticism and also tells you when you have done something successful. Which makes those times all the more fun!
In general, I'm trying to get some things I've sewn up on Etsy.com under "BadGalQuilts". I have a lot of ideas for sewing projects and have so many things I want to make. No one, except for some friends, has bought anything yet. But I have hope. I would buy my stuff and especially as I move away from tea towels (which are the only things up there right now) and into bags and napkins, placemats etc. I think it will pick up. I will post a couple of photos of my favorites at the end.
My life seems to be one big experiment right now. There are a lot of pieces that I am trying to put together and have work... and I'm not sure how that will go! But the good news is I love living in NYC, love our apartment, love my husband and friends. If I can just find a way to balance my creative side with a way to make money I will be a happy camper.
Happy Election Day!
Get out there and vote!
