pitchers of liquor and milk

so thanks to thos of you who came out saturday night to check out the opening. your comments and compliments, and even your mere presence were more than i could have asked for. truly a heartfelt experience for me. thanks for spending the time to take in the work, and thanks for really trying to unpack it. it means a lot to me.

the earth quake this morning also means a lot to me. a whoe days worth of work in fact. i went to pick up some stuff from the gallery today and found half of the work collapsed into a heap. things have been crushed, cables ripped from the ceiling, etc. i figure i can have everything repaired and re-hung if i can put in a decent day tomorrow. it should be suprising that this happened i guess. craftsmanship wasn't the issue, just an act of god brought this thing down. the way that i designed it and hung it allowed me to move the entire thing (once hung) about six inches with a mere touch of the finger. i can only imagine how far that thing must have been swinging once the earth started a rockin. we're talking something that size of a large room in your house swinging three or four feet side to side really fast and then falling four and a half feet straigh down. oh well, nothing i can do about it at this point. i;ll take some cool pictures of it hanging all retared and scragly, then i'll rehang it and hope for the best. if you haven't come to see it yet, drop by on tuesday, or any day now through july 4 and give it a peek.

i was going to write a story tonight on here, but it's pretty late and i am pretty tired. so i should probably just post the story another time. maybe i will take a short walk outside and see what happends...
