I don't know whether this is funny or tragic. I suppose it's funny to anyone who wasn't a participant.
we have to use poster gum to mount things on the wall ... which is fine, except a) it has a tendancy to melt and b) it simply doesn't hold very well. I've mounted a lot of artwork, very little of which is matted, and the only remotely heavy things up there are three matted five by seven photos. not very heavy at all, but they've been slipping, slowly. one is above my head, one is above my desk, and the only is above my feet. well, at around three thirty in the morning, I was rudely awakened by what felt like I was being knocked in the face by somebody's fist. the framed photo had fallen and hit me. I just got up to brush my teeth, and I've got a nice little bruise and cut, and an empty spot in the collection of my artwork to boot.
