Tonight, I'm scheduled to close Kclingers. Then tomorrow I'm going to the Sandra Day O'Connor thing at St. John's, which means i have to be in Annapolis at 9 or earlier.

Do you suppose, then, that that was the end of Joey and Rachel? Cause if it was, that was an awful lot of buildup for nothing.

Johanna and I were talking about the getting up early thing. She started working for a temp agency, and had been used to thinking that getting up at 8 or 9 was early, and now she has to be at work at 8 or 9. I, however, am still doing the restaurant thing, and so I often get home at midnight or later, and so getting up at 10ish is early. I get up at 10 the days I have pottery, cause I don't have to look presentable, I just need to throw on clothes I don't particularly care about and go off to class, and become a respectable looking person when I get home before I go to work.

So, this morning I got up obscenely early and went out to breakfast with dee as a graduation thing. A late graduation thing. We were supposed to do lunch in May, but she was really sick. Breakfast was nice, even if it was far earlier than I normally get up.

Someone I work with was complaining about the new 20, thinking that it will look like Monopoly money. I think it will look like international money, so it's all fine with me. But I still think we should take Jackson off and put someone else on.

HACC is running trips to England, Italy and Greece for classes. The one to England is just about 2 weeks and about $2000, right after new year, with a few days in Paris.

Actually, the last cylinder I tried to throw was nearly right, but there I didn't do a sharp enough corner at the bottom, so there was extra clay there, and then there wasn't enough at the lip.

Today, I glazed. This took almost two hours, the whole deciding which glazes I wanted to use, mixing them up, and then cleaning up the bottom of my pots. So then I sat down and tried to do the cylinder assignment that we have, but I suck at cylinders.

And, since I got a CD last night for $10, I should let everyone know the Chris Duarte Group (or maybe it's just Chris Duarte) is very good.

I like that I can now blog without either opening a new window, or going somewhere else in the window I have open.

So, I was sitting here typing in URLs that I was going to, cause that tends to be how I do it, rather than going to bookmarks or whatever, and I typed in neilgaiman.com/bltadv and got all confused.

Tonight's blue's band at Kclingers was really quite good, and I got a copy of one of their CDs for $10 because I was working, and he signed it.

One of the hostesses I work with wants to set me up with a friend of her son. They (the son and the friend) came in on Friday, and so I sort of met him, and then Joann was talking him up to me, and was like "he's very straight, very religious..." and I was sitting there thinking, "oh, dear, and here's me who read Douglas Adams's essay on calling himself a 'radical atheist' and thinking of doing the same thing, for about the same reasons."

I wonder if at least part of why Dream's story in Endless Nights was set so far back was to allow it to be the story of at least sort of the same Dream as whose story was told throughout the 75 issues of Sandman but also to have it not be related to the "Lord of Dreams realizes he must change or die and does" theme that was the theme of the comics.

I think when I get a new fish, I will name it Borghal Rantipole. Or, at any rate, I will dig The Kindly Ones out of a box, and figure out what the name of Del's fish was.

So, my old school is trying to organize an alumni gathering/20th anniversary thing this coming Spring, which, since I'm home, they have roped me into helping with. So today I went to the first meeting about this, and wound up feeling very frustrated with things. Like, they want to do a book thing, of pictures from the school over the course of the history, and they also want a yearbook for this year, but they only have the budget for one, so they want to combine it. Eventually I talked them out of that, cause, you know, that's kind of stupid. And I was like "I will do the book thing. I will ask for help from certain people, and it will be pretty and nice." And they were like "No. You have to have help from certain people, you have to have current students. It has to be inclusive." I'm really frustrated. I don't know how to deal with this. It's like, ooo, art by committee, that's going to be great...
