Frakkin' Muses!!
Lordy but when my muse is in a mood does she like to apply the whip!
Just yesterday I was telling Shar how I haven't really been inspired to work on anything jewelry wise. I don't know where my muse went, but she was definitely not making her presence known. (Personal suspicion...she was napping under a pile of fabric in the garage.)
Apparently stating that I have no motivation or inspiration is insulting to Our Lady of the Bullwhip of Inspiration, because some ideas started percolating last night and today was a veritable whirlwind of necklaces and earrings. Three sets today.... *whew*
I really hope she's sated for now...and that maybe she's willing to loan some energy to the projects that I actually _should_ be working on. *stares at list of things promised to other people* I'm betting not though. She's apparently fickle, selfish and jealously inclined to only goad me for things for myself...which I have NO space for in my collection, which I already don't wear half of on any regular basis.
*sigh* But then, what do we really expect of a muse right?
Results of the crafting frenzy are up on DevArt if you're curious. Basically I cleared out a bunch of projects that have been sitting around waiting for attention for a couple years.
So now that I've gotten some of that out of my system, maybe I'll get around to posting about the trip to Tahoe earlier this week...but just in case I don't, pictures are up on Flickr. There is evidence that Shar was out in the sunshine. (He's so good to me...)
And now... *collapses in a mused-out heap*
At least I don't have to be back at the office until Tuesday. There's recovery time.
