I am awesome because I made myself call a total stranger to whom I was referred last week. I met a friend of hers, who saw some of the horse-related art I make and said, "You really need to call this lady."
He did let her know to expect a call from me, so it wasn't as awkward as it might have been, but this sort of thing literally makes my heart pound and my chest tighten, I am SO not wired for it, so the fact that I did it anyway (and that it went well) makes me awesome today. I may end up getting some horse-portrait work out of it, which would be wonderful.
I'm also awesome because I agreed to go back to another 7:00 a.m. meeting of the same group of people from which I got this referral. That's tomorrow morning. Guys, I am SO nocturnal. I Do Not Do Mornings, but I'm doing it because I need to survive, and I'm proud of myself for that.
And I'm getting my big commission canvas underway today, so that's another awesome thing.
What do you mean by "a whole course about serials"? Serial ... what? I'm presuming it's rather dull if your awesome achievement was to remain conscious throughout. :-)
Also, Jades, you are awesome for continuing these posts. They're really helpful, more than you might think.
