self portrait tuesday - #9

me - hands Originally uploaded by dressform.

nine nine nine - nine already? nine and time are pals.... only because they rhyme...

so... my hands. because often i don't know what to do with them... because i have too many choices of what to do with them.... because i talk with them.... because they are expressive in so many ways.... because they fit together nicely [remember here's a church, here's a steeple, look inside and see all the people?].... because because because.... want more spt? oh yes you do... [and october's theme is out.... go

started teaching yesterday. hope i didn't forget to say something. i talk fast. and often students don't ask questions the first day.... it's important to set the tone... what is my tone?? i shouldn't be typing this i should be finalizing my lecture for tomorrow! next on the agenda....

i'm a bit giddy. my phone has been ringing off the hook today. i don't normally verbalize so much [2 days in a row with the teaching. i forget how tiring the simple act of TALKING can be]. one phone call was incredibly exciting.... i can hardly spill the beans because it's too exciting and what if it doesn't happen????? it HAS to happen! it involves, me... my art work.... a museum [!] and all of us going in a plane to a place far far away.... keep your fingers crossed for me OK?
