Best Laid Plans

Good Morning, Kittens.
 
Last night, I was totally going to get a post ready of pics of my most recently glazed pottery (you may remember them as the mugs which gave me the Horrible -yet totes cute- Finger Burn).  However, that didn't quite happen. 
 
And, when I've tried to post actual pics from flickr using the blogger Post by Email function, they haven't quite worked.
 
So here's a link to the first mug: http://www.flickr.com/photos/enviroboi/5058639656/
 
You can click through to see the other four.  The three blue ones are the ones that had drippy glaze issues.  Three are handbuilt.  The other two I made on the wheel.
 
Today is my Friday.  Hallelujah.
 
Once the workday is finished, I'm stopping by the likker store to restock my supplies.  And, then, I'm spending the evening on the sofa watching DVDs and drinking myself into an incomprehensible stupor.
 
Joy.
 
Have a great day!

    I love the double twisty handle. That is so cool. And that shade of blue is gorgeous. Hope your burn is better and enjoy your super long weekend.

    Wow, have fun tonight. As I've got two more days of work after this one, drink yourself into some of the stupor for me, please? :)

    HUGS...

    Excellent mugs! I like the blue glazes, but would have preferred you got them without the burns.

    I hope those dvds included old episodes of Wonder Woman.

    Love them! The double-twisty handle is amazing, and the glaze around the bottom of that last brown one is beautiful. Such a great shape, too.

    I finally picked up my bowl from the studio yesterday and put a few pics up on my blog tonight. I loves it. I hope I can find a good studio in St. Paul.

I'm Back (from Vacation)

 I'm back. I will be posting about my vacation soon.  Well, soonish ... maybe this weekend.  I dunno. Also, I came back to a big pile of stress at work.  Good times. Can I go on vacation again?  (Why, yes. Yes, I can.  I'll be flying to Atlanta for Pesach.  Just the weekend.  Not the whole dang thing.  My body needs gluten. And, then, a quick trip to NC in early May to see the 'rents.) ANYWAY.  Israel and Latvia posts coming up. Stay tuned. Or just look at the pix on my IG. *hugz*

If We Took a Holiday ...

 Happy Presidents' Day! Since I last posted, so much has happened ... I think.   I was going to bake my parents heart-shaped biscuits, because -when we were wee lads- my mom used to bake my brother and I heart-shaped biscuits on Valentine's morning.  They were not as good as the biscuits I make now. However, after I grated the frozen butter in my food processor, I tipped it out into the flour and the handle on the food processor broke.  The bowl fell into the flour.  I dug out a few pieces of plastic and a spring, and I threw it all in the trash.  I called the manufacturer.  They are sending me a new bowl ... in 2-3 weeks.  UGH.  HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE BISCUITS NOW?!?!? The SigNoth caught a cold, so Valentine's Day was even more of a bust.  Not that I really buy into the whole pseudo-holiday thing anyway. Saturday, I did my taxes. Refund, yay!  And, I ordered some nice stationery.  I thought it would be fun to use my fa...

Too Early But Not Early Enough

 6:00AM. With the new normal, I should be on a bus to the metro station, where I board a train and then another train to arrive at my office bright and early and chipper as a newborn squirrel. Today is special, though.  It's Pottery Class Registration Day.  Which is surprisingly competitive.  The DMV has too many Type A Soccer Moms (and Dads). In order to register for class, I have to log on at 6:30AM and hope the Pottery Gods are kind to me in the registration queue.  We shall see ... so exciting. After I register, I will then board a bus and a train ... and another train to get to my office.  Depending on what time I arrive, I will either work late (ugh) or take some leave (also, ugh).  Being totally honest, I will more than likely take leave because I hate being at work late.   This would be a perfect day to telework.  If we were allowed to telework.  Too bad Danger Yam (as one of my mutuals calls He Who Must Not Be Named) thinks...
