HOLY MACKEREL!
i just sold the masterpiece hat for
$499!!
http://www.anacam.com/hats/forsale/masterpiecehat.jpg
it is the best hat i have ever made
and i hate to part with it but for 500 bucks i sure will!
wow! i am SO HAPPY!!! this means i have significantly less stress on me this
month money-wise!
yesssss!
the universe takes care of me!
thank you universe!
i think this is a sign from the universe that indeed there is a market for
my very expensive and very elaborate avant garde hats and that if i just stick
to my guns and follow my heart and make the hats that make me the happiest
to make and not the ones that are the most commercial (although i'm sure i'll
make a few more of those, too), then...that is the direction i should go in!
and i knew it was, but now, i feel even more concrete in that and it really
feels good!!!
i almost feel like crying or something
:)

horoscope
how funny that this should be my horoscope this week:
ARIES (March 21-April 19):
On February 1, six big-name entertainers took control of the Super Bowl halftime
show. The result was a histrionically boring spectacle of robotic sexuality
and fake emotion. If there was any saving grace amidst the monumental emptiness,
it was Janet Jackson's climactic unveiling. In a New York Times article, Alessandra
Stanley wrote, "The one moment of honesty in that coldly choreographed
tableau was when the cup came off and out tumbled a normal middle-aged woman's
breast instead of an idealized Playboy bunny implant." Your assignment
in the coming week, Aries, is to be inspired by that moment of honesty. Strip
away pretension and phoniness everywhere you find them, thereby exposing the
raw humanity that lies beneath. One caveat: Do this ethically, and without
breaking the law.

commercials i hate
i hate the one, i think it is for Total or cornflakes, where a woman is wrapped
in a towel and she is weighing herself and she sees a guy and yells "no!
don't look!" and she looks all horrified and ashamed. and the person
says something to the effect of "but you're not naked!" and she
replies, "no! don't look at the scale!"
and this woman isn't even REMOTELY overweight.

and another one where, (i think it is selma hayek) it is a coke commercial (i think) and she is in the kitchen of a busy restaurant and scarfing down food right and left (very "unladylike") and then she leaves the kitchen and goes to her dinner table where her friends are waiting and they don't know she has been in the kitchen and her food arrives which is a plate with some food on it of the tiniest proportions and she waves it away saying , "oh no, none for me, i'm watching my figure".
have you seen this one?
as if women have to hide the fact that we eat like it is a shameful thing.
and to show her in the kitchen almost in a way that suggests she is "out
of control" and then we see her show the facade of perfect control and
discipline to her friends as if that is an admirable thing to do.
grrr!
and there is another commercial that has bugged me more than average lately, too, but now it has slipped my mind but if i think of it, i will add it to this entry.
