Apparently, my step sister is looking at going to Santa Barbara city college... which I spent two years at while I was going to college. We don't really have anything in common, but I think she would probably enjoy it there. However, I do think my dad should have bought an investment property there (I made that point when I started going to school). Her thinking about going there only makes me want to say 'I told you so'. I feel kind of bad about that, but, hell, it would have made my life there easier. Oh well. I hope things work out for her, even though we aren't that close.
My dad's doing better with his cancer. They've changed his reginmen for chemo shots to 3 weeks on 1 off instead of 7 weeks on 1 off. He's very happy about the reprieve. He's even gone golfing a couple of times and says he isn't in pain anymore (though I think the pain meds are helping with that).
SiliCon is coming up this weekend. I'm looking forward to it, but I'm feeling some trepidation and wondering if we're going to make booth fee. We had a hard time last year, and I'd like to be making more money with my artwork. I somehow just can't seem to get it up off the ground, and I'm feeling really discouraged about it. I will probably start looking for a real job come November. *sigh* I like my artwork, and I get lots of people going 'oooh pretty' but not many people are buying. Are my prices just too high? I get other people who buy stuff and tell me I'm selling myself short. Which is it?
