i was going to title this post "senior rage syndrome takes another victim", but in reality i'm not raging anymore. it's like the hormones have settled and i'm okay even though in a week my show is opening.
the frames are coming, the glass thing is being dealt with and my foam core is cut (although i did cut my finger with the box cutter). the prints--i have 20, and even though some are not going to be used in the show, not many, which means not that much time left in that horrible darkroom. (it's so not fair to go in there when the weather is this nice. it's torture. i'd like an outdoors darkroom, but that would pretty much be pointless anyway.) the mat cutting isn't as bad as i thought it would be because i'm no longer going to 32nd of an inch, the smallest i'm getting is in eighths. plus, the horrible part of getting it cut into the 16x20 inch stuff is finished. the biggest thing i have to do is the matting actually, because the frame assembly has had many volunteers. and i'm pretty chipper about the mat thing.
it's scary how relaxed i am about this today. if i don't take my glass in until monday, and then call the other place, that's like wednesday i'm getting it. do i care? eh...whatever! i have stuff to do until then.
it's fantastic. it's like i've been drinking, without the after effects.
i know what you mean, i alternate between freaking out and being really calm about it. but then when i'm calm i start to worry that i'm forgetting something and being too calm. fun times.
