Just some news:
My wonderful friends Mark and Marcia are the proud parents of a healthy baby boy, Joseph Dennis Villemagne Miller.
I had the greatest intentions of visiting them this weekend in the hospital, until some dumb flu bug hit me in the face like a sack of bricks and sent me into a feverish 102 delirium for 3 days. On the plus side, I had some pretty cool dreams; 1, that I got to go trick-or-treating with the aunts from that show Sabrina the Teenage Witch and 2, that Japanther and Double Dagger were doing a free secret show at Dundalk High School. What the hey?
So after a few days of tossing and turning and whining, I am flu-free, though not quite feeling 100%. The throat still aches and I feel dizzy after too much physical activity, but I’m gettin there. I’ll be ready to put on my License2KimJongIl Halloween costume in no time.
and finally, in other exciting news, I’m so pleased to announce that I’ll be hosting the Combat Paper Project here in Baltimore! They’ll be coming to town for about a week in mid-February, and we are working on finishing details right now. I’m looking at an exhibition and lecture at the Hexagon, and a demo/visit at a local studio. SO excited. I’m not sure how many papermakers + possible therapy dog I’ll be able to fit in my tiny apartment that week, but I’m sure it’ll all work out.
so other than that sleep delirium, life is pretty great. I had a tasty sushi lunch on my day off last week, followed by a surprise visit from the same person on his way home from work: nothing ends the week better than stoop wine. What I thought would amount to almost a thousand $ in repairs to my car was far less than half that amount when I took it to my dad’s mechanic for a second opinion. my family is great, I hope to do some traveling in the near future with my brothers, my mom just returned from a long visit to Vietnam, and I’m going to Austin in a couple weeks!
now back to fluids and gargling with salt water. attractive.
