Freelance

It has been a hectic week, full of visiting friends and family, packing, driving, and unpacking again. The last two days taking the brunt of it. On Thursday, my peeps at PGAV and elsewhere got together to give me one last hurrah. On the way, I managed to snag a highly dangerous but completely worth it shot of a rainbow. (It's in the lower, center portion of the picture.)



And since the delinquency gave me a rush, I went ahead and took a couple snapshots on the way to Manhattan.

First, the beautiful sky:



Then, the beautiful rolling hills:



Then, of course, a panorama!



I'm sad to have left St. Louis so soon after getting back, but I'm excited for the upcoming semester. There's so much that I want to do, I'm debating on whether to keep my job at P-Sub this year. I've been commissioned to make three chairs for Architecture's plot club, in the style of a previous design of mine:



I would be given the steel frames and tasked with sewing the leather seat and back. They would be connected via zipper, as in the picture above. The perk? I'd get PAID! My first freelance gig! And if I actually get the pay that I'm asking for, it would equal about two months' worth of P-Sub paychecks. All for about a week or two's worth of work. And I would like that very much. If I could manage that for the entire year, I would have no problem saying goodbye to P-Sub. But I'm pretty sure this is a one-time opportunity. Unless the Interior Architecture Plot Club gets all jealous and wants some too.
