Insomnia + The Golden Girls

.

I have a little insomnia thing happening this week.
No point in trying to fight it anymore..

I'm getting hooked on late night reruns of The Golden Girls.


.

Also this week....

-Woke up crazy early and worked worked worked until late.
So much left to do...tomorrow through Friday are going to be 16 hour days.
.

-I bought M Ward's new Hold Time today.



I love it.
.

-Last February I started reading

The Thing About Life Is That One Day You'll Be Dead
by David Shields

and when I reached the chapter Adulthood and Middle Age: Decline and Fall (iii) I read a few paragraphs and I had to stop and just put it away. It just wasn't the best time for me to be reading it I suppose.

I just got it back out yesterday and I'm almost done.
It's just so good..
That David Shields is kinda brilliant.
.

The estimated quote to have one of my Charley Harper prints framed was $200 to $300, which is absolutely impossible and kind of ridiculous.

I went to two online stores, where I know to go to buy supplies to custom frame, and punched in my measurements and loaded the cart full of everything I would need:

-custom cut archival matting (4 ply), archival backing, UV protecting scratch resistant acrylite, archival linen tape, custom frame etc...

-store #1 the total was $130
-store #2 the total was $90

I went with the $90 option to see how it works out.
I am really hoping it works out just perfectly.
