Ah Ha! moment

Despite my very best efforts, I just can't get motivated to compose my Red Carpet recap... It'll be there soon I promise!
Instead, I'm having a little venting moment about the oversight I seemed to have had in not working for the man anymore. I never get to leave my work at the office. It consumes me day and night, when I'm on the phone, brushing my teeth, shopping, and most annoyingly when I'm sleeping!

Today was unfortunately less productive than I had hoped in terms of a few projects I'm currently focused on. One of those is the effort to create a hybrid bead show with a new name, new image and new focus. Initially it seemed like a dream to be able to have this sort of creative freedom. Instead, it's been my non-writer's writer's block.

Until about 10 minutes ago.
Understand that I have spent the last five straight hours staring at fonts (again) only to switch it up with stock photos and illustrations (again), and still come up with no inspiration.
Then the light bulb came on (no really... the idea was seriously that instant!) I had a concept for the style, simplicity, and look I've tried so hard to define this entire week. I now have about five mock up ideas to present to "the bosses" tomorrow.

Maybe this means a good night's sleep sans bizarre pregnancy, falling off a cliff, and the dreaded naked at school dreams.

To tide everyone over for one more day until the dress critiques come out (why I think anyone is on the edge of their seats about it, I'm not really sure)
I'll leave you once again with George :)
and my recollection yesterday that I made the goal last year to be one of those Oscar girls (the ones that give the award to the winners and then get to hug them). I hear they're heavy... statues, not the actors. I plan to do a lot of bicep curls to prep for next year's tryouts.
