1.NCIS and CRIMINAL MINDS..I love both shows..but really, HOW MANY times a day do they need to come on??
2. ARTIST MARKETING WEBSITES. If I want to learn more about marketing than I already know.... I will buy a book for God's sake. It's easy..if you make a product worthy of selling..it sells. If you don't ...all the marketing in the world's not going to help you.
3. FACEBOOK FAN PAGES. I love you all--but Fan pages on Facebook are an overused pain in the buttocks. I get over 100 a day, and ignore them all. I am on Facebook to play games. I follow your blogs, your Flickr, and your status' on Facebook. Enough is enough. I stopped using my fan page as soon as I figured out what a huge buttock pain they are to others.
4. RERUNS OF THE NANNY. Another show that is on about 20 times a day. Why did she dress like a tramp the whole time?? I wouldn't have let her raise my child.
5. WHINERS AT THE MARKET. Damn, if you don't like something..find somewhere else to go. Don't whine to me just because I listen.
6. ALWAYS HAVING TO BE NICE ON MY BLOG. Sometimes I just want to be MEAN.
7. PEOPLE WHINING ON THEIR BLOG ABOUT THINGS THEY DON'T LIKE...hahahaha.
Oh..there is so much more........Just ranting..back to the studio to work out my angst. Maybe I can do more than paint a canvas half blue and half green.......
Live Artfully, and if you can't--just go to the beach.

Well, Nature Boy and I have been quite busy--we did take time off last night to go see "Where the Wild Things Are", and I have to say that it was a dissapointment to say the least. I was looking for a happy, fun "escape" movie, and it was full of anger and angst, and made no sense to me, and the ending stunk...but, that's just my opinion, and since I am not a movie critic...you might like it. Let me know. I don't want to be the only one out there that hated it.

Yesterday, we were at a gas station, which was across the street from the Toyota dealership in our little town, and we saw a really big, black truck that Nature Boy wanted to look at. We have been eye-balling "vehicles" that are suited to do big art shows...and we ended up going to look at the big truck. We did a drive-by, and realized it was just a typical truck, and went to turn around. I drove around a bunch of cars, and as I was turning around, Nature Boy said.."that's what we need"...upon further inspection, I saw that it was a Toyota. I didn't even know that Toyota made a van..LOL..it really surprised me. I don't know why we got out of the car, why we looked at this van, why we even smiled at the salesman..we were not looking to actually BUY a van yet. We were going to wait 6 months, and just make do with what we had. So, I told the man that we were just "looking", and not buying, and that we didn't want to waste his time. He was super friendly...and asked that we think about it, and come back tomorrow...etc....Well, we got up today, and went down there to re-look at the van..and well..we BOUGHT it. It was a very pleasant, easy thing, and just felt "right". We didn't NEED it today--I mean we have two good, operable vehicles..we weren't in a hurry to buy one...but the guy was SO NICE about it all..and so we brought it home. Nature Boy spent two hours playing with all the gadgets and such..LOL. It's wonderfully nice, and completely electronic, and has a sound system in it that would make a teenager happy..hehehe..The volume goes to 60!!!OMG!! I can blast the wheels off of the thing. It's beautiful. I love it. It's a great pre-owned vehicle, and we got a great deal on it...which makes me even happier!!

We are all packed for the Chattanooga Market tomorrow...with a ton of room to spare. It's gonna be different actually not being smooshed and cramped in our Corolla. I haven't done much art this week. I think I did about 5 or 6 small paintings, and that is about it...I have been lazy..it suddenly turned cold this week, and you all know that I go into hibernate mood...so, until later..Live Artfully!
