Full out SQUEE!

While life is insanely busy and getting busier by the day, there are pockets of joy that keep popping up. Currently in Slean mode:

1. Warner has bought two of my photos of Sarah Slean for use on her upcoming album! I have no idea if they'll make the final edit, but as the album is out in less than a month I don't have too long to be curious about it :)

2. The new live (and Bside) Sarah Slean album, Orphan Music, is coming out on Hallowe'en. I love Hallowe'en and last years' got to be a Slean holiday (in NYC no less!) and apparently so does this year!) No complaints here :)

3. I have tickets to this show in the spring: http://littleslean.blogspot.com/2006/10/slean-tickets-on-sale-toronto-art-of.html To anyone who is going to order tickets. Harbourfront is apparently saying that row 7 is the best available. That's not so. They have this deal with Ticketmaster which in the long run I think hurts the Harbourfront box office, but that's just my opinion. Anyways, Ticketmaster has the rights to sell those first few rows of tickets when sales go online. However if you talk nicely to the box office people and let them know that you're fairly sure that there are better seats available then you should be able to swing a better seat. If anyone remembers reading my drama with getting tickets from this venue last winter it's exactly the same thing. I really did love the theatre but their ticket sale policy is definitely not my favourite.

But back to the good, add to this crazy fun that it's a lovely holiday weekend. I had a great homecooked meal and got a massage for my strained neck, and I plan to sleep in like woah tomorrow. It's all good :)

lol well as I said in the comment above there are pictures that were submitted that were far better quality, I didn't even have a digital at the time lol, so I'm not counting on seeing them in the album. But I'll be thrilled if they're there :)

thrilled to be nominated

But aren't we all terrible judges of our own work? Anyway, it's still an honor just to get that close. I still get a thrill just to get a hand written rejection letter from an editor, because that means you at least rose above most of the other stuff on the slush pile.

lol in this case they really weren't great shots, just different than most live photos which is what I think got them through :) But yes to have them being considered is plenty honour enough for me :)
