A week of accomplishment

Will she ever post as regularly as used to?
Will she ever tell us anything of interest again?
Will she stop talking about herself in the 3rd person?
Sorry people, but I'm busy. Grad School is almost over, and I must stabilize a future for myself!

This week included a few tasty highlights worth noting.

1. Upon This My Dreams Are Depending closed this week. The chalkboards have been removed from the walls, save one near the bathroom, which owner Kate Dumbleton wanted to keep as a permanent installation. Over the 4 weeks the show was up, I was able to change the lists and document 8 rounds. I now have a large collection of images which I plan on transforming into an artist book. I am currently experimenting with printing materials, and looking into binding options. I would like to use Taurus, but their prices are somewhat high. If anyone has suggestions on where else to look, please be in touch. More on this project to follow on this.



2. The bed frame Max and I bought from bedroom Depot was finally returned. It has been a month of horrendous customer service, unpleasant phone conversations and downright aggravation. In the end we received an 80% refund on a product that was defective to begin with. I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, contacted the local television show ConsumerWatch and I'm writing a letter to Modus Furniture International about the shitty bed frames they make. Some may say I have gone overboard, but I cannot stand when something is unfair, and will take things to great lengths at times when I feel that fiery knot in my stomach start to turn.

3. There are certain blogs I return to frequently (Dooce, Stereogum, Superhero) and then there are new ones that pop up all the time. I have decided to add a Favorite Blog segment to my own, in order to share the fabulous talent online with those of you who read mine. You can find Blog Pick on the right hand menu under Top Picks.
