Too much wine...

Over the course of the week I have probably consumed close to three bottles of wine....mostly shiraz. I've been out three nights this week, twice with co-workers, once at a Dia De Los Muertos party. Oof. No more. I'm certainly paying for it today. Of all the hangovers to have...red wine is the worst. And of course it brought back bouts of insomnia.

But class with my one student went well today. Tis hard to fill a full three hours with one girl. But we made due. It's a shame the other had to drop out. I'm very pleased with the Tempest designs so far. It feels, at least at this point, like nothing I've done yet. But it reeks of my style. Tuesday is our preliminary design meeting. I'm chomping at the bit to prep these sketches to paint. The children's theatre may offer some sense of fulfillment in that I feel it is theatre with a definite purpose. This project is satisfying the artist in me. That and it'll be fun making these clothes. Especially considering the one girl I still mentor is a huge geek...cos-play costumes and all.

And the rest of the day spent recovering from First Friday (the galleries were disappointing this time around). And playing text message tag with someone who decided to drink their troubles away at 3 in the afternoon. "Hold me closer tiny dancer?" Oh if only you would really let me. But I'm a terrible dancer. I may accidentally tread on your heart.
