I’m over-thinking it. Everything. I got my first check a few months ago, and after the excitement of seeing “FOC Studio” on the check passed, I wanted to tear it to shreds because I was sure the customer actually hated my prints and regretted hiring me. I came to this conclusion when her email did not include enough exclamation points. She “loved” the prints, which is not the same as “OMG SQUEEE LOVED!!!!” the prints.
All of these junior high school emotional theatrics is exhausting and highly annoying, especially to Dan who has to talk me down from a ledge over other day. A very small ledge though, maybe only about yea-high, but a ledge nonetheless.
For now I’ll cut myself some slack since this is all brand-new to me, and soon enough I’ll be able to navigate my way through it. I know I will. Although there are many unseen roadblocks coming, nothing was ever a bigger roadblock than not knowing my true passion in life. So really, I’m already a million steps ahead than where I was. It feels SO. GOOD.
Anyway. Here are some photos I took today of Veebs as I was waiting for lunch to heat up. Veebs was hanging out on the butcher block table (hate it when he does this but what can you do, cats always get their way), I bent down to scratch my ankle and when I looked up, the sun was in my eyes. I slowly stood up until Veeb’s head blocked the light, and his ears became pointy little silhouettes, outlined in gold. And then I knew what time it was. It was lens flare time!
I call this “VanBuren Cat, Superstar”
This one is “Sunrise Over Ayers Rock”
If God were a cat, this is what we would see if we tried to look Him in the face (apologies for the sacrilege).
Now my eyes really hurt.
