I've got the sky

I just want to know what a rigadoo is!

And I've done an astonishingly small amount of sewing-y stuff done lately. I've thought about projects a lot, but haven't done anything more than cut out my painting smock. Yes. Terribly exciting. It's all my inner nine-year-old's fault. I have felt very ungrownup recently...what is grown up anyway? I dunno. This winter has just been barreling on by and I've been merrily swishing along with it thinking an awful lot about the future but not doing a whole lot about it. Seriously, my imagination has been in over-drive recently, and I keep mixing my metaphors.

And you know what?! I just remembered I haven't taken a single picture of my 1920 dress! I swear I did finish it...I'll try to get pictures tonight. Maybe I'll write me a note on my arm.

on screen colors ARE real

Quark hates me.

The printer hates me.

This project will kill me.

All I want is a true color! Oh, technology gods, is the color I see on screen too much to ask for in real life?! Why are browns printing as greys while pink is still pink and the blues are even brighter than they ought to be! And different boxes of the same shade of brown are TOTALLY different when printed. *growls* I want my design and illustration to look the way I have them on screen. It looks so crappy printed out. And I actually like how I did this project. I can't wait to get to photoshop next week though...vectored programs suck.
