Picture: a new Forge World Reaver Titan (this was NOT painted by BTP). I just love the look and feel of this model. I thought it was smaller than a Warhound, but evidently it is a lot larger. At $1100 it is really quite a large purchase. Well, a guy can dream!<\/p>\n

I am still running the Rummage Sale!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I was up at 3am this morning, wide awake, so I put on a few episodes of Star Trek: Enterprise, ate some blueberry yogurt, and cleared ye ole Inbox.<\/p>\n

I went back to sleep at around 5am, soundly. I had another “studio” dream, where I see BTP in a better place. In this one I was in my own studio\/home out in the Oregon deep forest, but the older me was asleep in the other room. I was looking at my own accomplishments in the form of living paintings. Then I got in my van and drove back down the long road back to town.<\/p>\n

The boys were fritzing around with their nerf guns this morning.<\/p>\n

I have an assistant now. Today was his first day. He’s Johnny on the Spot. It’s pretty awesome. It really lightens the load. Don’t get emotionally attached, though, I don’t know if it’s going to work out. For all I know he’ll implode in a week. Like I always say, “you can’t hold in crazy for more than 30 days.”<\/p>\n

Speaking of which, as a matter of trivia, my wife and I dated for 19 days before getting engaged. I wouldn’t recommend that for everyone, but it worked out for us. I remember sitting on the concrete stairs of her apartment complex (we couldn’t be inside alone together for the sake of propriety) and looking at her; in my mind’s eye it was as if a pillar of light came down to rest on her, that if I willed this would be a life match for me.<\/p>\n

For those that are courting, I recommend putting the physical relationship on hold while considering the weighty matters of marriage. If need be, have a chaperone at all times, and only be in public. That’s the only way we managed to keep our hands off each other!<\/p>\n

No other news really. There is ONE project (KODT) waiting in the digital photography booth. I’m expecting in a few more projects tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Right now I am booking projects for painting the very last week of May, and for Assembly the two weeks just before that. If anyone is interested.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
