watermelon skirt+sunshine+love+studio=spring
People are loving the sunshine, outside all over the place it's great.
We actually had art history outside yesterday, which is funny because it's an art history class based on avant guarde american cinema. But we were discussing films we watched in class Monday.
I have been busy busy busy.
Classes are driving me crazy with work, but I'm staying on top of it all somehow.
This is not to say that I haven't been having any fun. Quite the contrary, I've been having lots of fun in between all my work.
St. Patrick's Day was also Glam Slam which I went to after I left studio at 10pm.
Jay came back from Spring Break the next day and spent a few hours with me before going back to his room to unpack.
Dillon and I hung out for a few hours on his birthday. In his suite and in the studio. In fact Dillon spent about an hour and a half just watching me trim the feet on my jars and talking with me. It was nice to hang out after not really spending any time together for a few months.
Craig has been going crazy with Raices, and Cameron has been just generally going crazy.
I don't know that there will be any more snowboarding this season. The last time I went was the Tuesday I got back from Spring Break. It was great riding with Will, Alex, and Anne. We rode in the park all night and I did some little jumps and mostly rode around to watch them get some big air on the jumps. I don't jump much without my helmet which I forgot. Ooops. But it was a blast.
This weekend Jay took me home to Buffalo with him. It wasn't a wild trip but it was really nice to get out of Alfred. We went to Lowe's so Jay could buy a torch. Then he took apart part of a water boiler with it while I read in the sunshine and watched him. We went out to dinner and I read more when we got back. We watched Wanda Sykes standup and then went to bed.
I spent Saturday in the studio working on teapots and tureens. I spent Saturday night on-call. Mom called with me some sad news. Rita Phelix, the woman who took care of my brother and I when we were very small and our parents worked passed away over the weekend... That pancreatic cancer is such a bastard of a disease... It's so soon after losing Grandma, I cried a bunch and then just stopped. I don't retain emotion for long. Jay came and took care of me.
I went home Sunday for the wake. It was awkward not knowing anybody except for Chuck Phelix. He seems to be doing alright, shook up for sure, but the same Chuck he was 15 years ago. None of the other kids Rita watched while Sean and I were in Rita's care were there but I suppose that's alright. We said our goodbyes and left. I drove back to school after going to wegmans with Mom and Dad and stopping home to eat, change, and put groceries in my car.
You know it's funny when we spoke to Chuck he mentioned the cards I used to send them. I think I ought to start doing that again. I've been thinking about it for a long time and it's time to stop being selfish and to start making people smile again...
Jay and I are celebrating our two month anniversary today. Doesn't seem like much but hopefully there will be many more. This guy really makes me happy.
Time to tidy up around here, hope everyone is well and enjoying the sunshine.
