The Gross Out Award

I sell used furniture. There's no getting around that. I was on site today for my first sizable installation of workstations--there to go over the design plan with the installers, watch the offload process, learn and ...clean. By the time they get to the next customer, workstation components will have bumps and bruises and be in need of a cleaning--but at less than a third the cost of new (and green too!), that's ok. Boogers, however, are not ok. Someone sat at their desk for years (literally years), picked their nose and wiped it on the bottom of the pencil drawer. The flaky, crusty, smearing mess was spectacularly on display when the desk was staged on its end as it was being moved into it's new home. And yes, I had to scrub brush it off.

Why Torture Me?

I hate getting messages from long lost loves. If you're not going to drop everything, show up at my door and start making babies with me, then for heaven's sake go away and leave me alone! Sigh.

That's Reason Enough

Mom's coming home for the summer! She called a few days ago, "I just booked a flight, I'll be in on Friday, it's too hot here" (she's in ... Israel).

Back in the Saddle

I'm going to be painting again! I've got the studio space, I have the free weekends, I have the easel...I have no excuse. Setting up again got me thinking that I still have a number of Antibes-era paintings left unsold. This announces a last chance to get one at the 2003/4 prices (in euros no less)! Visit the Gallery, send me an email of what you'd like. Click on a picture to see details, sizes and its sold status. Stay tuned for updates from the easel.
