The yawns are getting me!

I have my 10-year high school reunion tonight, and I'm all sleepy and unmotivated. I have to shower, and brush my hair and be all social and stuff.

I want a big t-shirt that says 'YES, I am still a fantasy art geek' so that no one has to ask.

Melody will be there, at least, so we can cling to each other and confess that we don't know who anyone is and we don't have anything in common with any of them. And Jake will be there, too. I get to show off my movie-star-handsome, engineer husband. :P

Did some more Wish3 work today, trimming and packing volumes and calculating/planning/plotting the individual issue release. During which I printed great big Ursula prints in anticipation of a July Con and packed up Laura's big prints.

Have applied for the froogle merchant powerseller feed information and am looking it over. I think it could be a good thing, and it's not that difficult. I'll test it with some of my better selling pieces and see what happens.

*yawns* Ack! One of them got me!

Dots. Money. Bank. Truck. Debt. Art..

Please work, they beg me.

We need your help, they say, and I feel bad, because I feel sorry for their plight and the load on my equally frazzled co-workers. And even half my attention is a help to them. And they are so good to me when I need the time. I'm taking 9 weeks off this year, plus my various half-days off. It probably equals out to working the parttime hours I am supposed to be.

I think I'm trying to justify something to myself.

Like going in to work tomorrow. It's not like it would have been a wind-down day... I'd planned on working on the house.

The reunion was fine and kinda fun. I hardly recognized most of those people, and had few memories to share with them, but they were good, cheerful, friendly people who honestly did their best to see that everyone was having a good time. I have that tired after-social feeling.

My eyes are tired, and I'm feeling like I need some time to give a good think to the direction of EMG. Two or three people this week, completely separate from the reunion, asked if I was close to quitting my day job and doing business fulltime. I talked to my dad tonight about what I've been doing lately, business wise, and how business has been in general. ISBNS. Books. Art. Prints. Portrait Adoption. The Custom Calendars. Wayward EMG responsibilities that I really, really want to get caught up on. New projects. Maybe even my own art.
