Not Swine Flu: Time Flu.

Again, I have simply been too busy. So busy, in fact, that I fooled myself into believing that last week was my last week at the farmer's market: this is simply not true. I have one more day at the farmer's market. Great. But I had said my goodbyes, and Nishon actually offered that at an inconvenience of my winter unemployment, that they could "make me useful". Good to know.

I took these when Celia and I made sushi several weeks ago. Remember? ...I barely do.
Basho has been going well, and I was barely scolded at all today! Thursday will be mostly building the pages for the classes, and harassing teachers for more pieces of information.

Tomorrow: Off.

Saturday was my last day off, and I was of course sick. Overcoming Swine Flu is pretty easy, but not as easy as being a hypochondriac. Not me, of course, but everyone. These days, you say "I'm sick" and immediately, "IS IT SWINE FLU?" but, thankfully, its just a nosy old cold. But, the Health Care Bill has finally moved to the house, so, maybe by this time next year, I might not actually die if I did catch Swine Flu. (What will it be next year? Avian... Swine... Fish Flu??).

I'm being silly. (stalling because of my lack of images?)

In any case, I am realizing that time is running out. For the past 6 months, I have been pushing aside all feelings of disembodiment, and estrangement: I have obtained several jobs, made several friends, and updated some photos to a blog. But, friends, my jobs are, actually, ending. Decorating cakes (hopefully) will certainly not be selling baked goods at farmer's markets. And whatever they keep me on at Basho, will certainly not make this month any less credible, but I doubt it will be the same. And of course, Eastern State. I have 8 days left of Eastern State. I have had my issues with them, but truth be told? I love it. This amazing group of individuals has become more of a family to me than I could have imagined possible in a period of 6 months, 6 months of mourning the loss of a much bigger family. Kudos, Eastern State.

So, aside from a severe case of time-loss, I have one pertinent thing to report!

Takashi Arai's opening! Flawless Lakes: Contemporary Daguerreotypes is opening at Project Basho this Thursday, November 12 from 7-9. I'll be there, and would love to see you.

Also, Amelia is visiting this weekend for her birthday! First graduated birthday! I've thought up some things to entertain her during her stay, and now that Septa is running again, the pressure is off Hans.
I know there has been a movement against using my only model, but what can I say?
He's a lot bigger now!

Tune in next time, for photos from Takashi's opening, and Amelia's birthday visit!
