I get irrationally angry at the weather. Weather in the south, specifically. And I know it's because I have such a fierce love for cold weather and snow. Having lived in North Carolina my entire life, one eventually grows tired of the 75 degree "winter" days. Once in a while we'll get a decent winter, maintaining temperatures in the 30's- lower 50's, and maybe even some snow if we're lucky. But it never sticks around for long. These seemingly endless hot, sticky summers and lackluster winters are beginning to drive me crazy.
That being said, I'm ready to move on. Literally. We've been looking at some places up north, specifically Massachusetts and Virginia, but nothing is for sure yet. Somewhere. Anywhere with biting cold and where impromptu sledding is entirely possible. Where I can wear my bubble jacket everyday and not get funny looks because it's 80 degrees. Where it's not a guessing game of how to dress from day to day and where snow falls by the feet. Jaded southerner? Me? Nah.
But before all that moving business I'm looking to enroll in school. I actually found one near here that is specifically geared toward my field of interest, so if all goes accordingly, I will be fully certified six months from when I start. Open house is next month, so I'm crossing my fingers that it's everything I hope it will be.
Most importantly, Ember just found out that she and Way got their table for Artist Alley. She's going to be working on new pieces every week up until the con, so if you're going to be at AZ this year, do us a favour and BUY HER ARTS. You know you want to. I'll be helping to man the table most of the weekend, so do drop by and say 'hi' if you see us. We don't bite. Hard.
