long weekend

So the other day, Eva gets stung by two honets at a friend's house. One on her neck, the other on her arm. She screamed for literally 20 minutes, while I put ice on it, baking soda, and some kind of cream.... I seriously thought she was over-reacting, blowing a hornet's sting out of proportion.

Well yesterday, I ate my words when I had one crawl up my pant leg while hanging out laundry and sting me three times in approximately the same spot. I screamed for longer than 20 minutes and cried and cried like I haven't since I was a baby. The hornet's sting was by faaaaaar one of the most painful things I've ever felt in my life. I fear them now, it's official. Yesterday was life changing for me.

the show Saturday night was fantabulous with an amazing turnout. Aside from the fact that I am the ringmaster of any and all events at IR Gallery, it was just a great party. I don’t think it was possible to come by on Saturday evening and not have a good time. Cathey is a superb artist and super cool to be around.

also, just had to post these pics. Andrea and I were toni and guy models for a friend of ours who is ‘testing out’ to get on the ‘art team’. I haven’t done much modeling before, which is a blessing, considering I’m 5’10”. I could never make this a career choice, although it is fun occasionally. Andrea and I are girls that take like 10 minutes getting ready. It took 5 hours to get us ready for our walk. With a team of people. Unreal. But it was fun.
