I think I'll go to Boston...

...spring break is here & with that I am heading east to Boston. Boston U bookstore, Cheers, 2 games at Fenway, running on the Charles, Quincy Market, Tavern on the Water, my favorite family-The Peters...does it get any better. Yep. the boy is coming with. In a car for 11 hours with him...so psyched! 

pictures to come!

grand re-opening...

...after months of nothing on here I am giving it a second try. Like one of those stores that closes the doors & then re-opens hoping to lure the unsuspecting customer into their greedy coercing grip. No, not really. Actually if we're being honest I like to hear myself talk...I think I am funny, so I am pretty sure I will like to see what I write, because again, I will be funny on here too. Admit it... you know you reread your old blogs just to laugh at yourself and be swept up into your own charm. Today I recognized this fact when my 20+ high school students were staring at me with very, well it was actually a lack of expression on their faces. It was great, I just kept on going...knowing that there were going to be a handful who were enjoying listening to my lecture on tasteful design. At the very least, I was enjoying it.  

note to self: thank you drew pierce and 'dad' for being my blog engine restarters...I appreeesh.

ok really bethany, focus on the update since 2008. Yes, I bought a house in Sylvania. Yes, I have named it g a l l e r y o n e s i x. Yes, you have to put the spaces in there. Yes, I am going to buy a neon sign that says g a l l e r y o n e s i x. Yes, I took the picture above. No, I don't live there as of right now. No, I don't have a boyfriend right now. No, (mother) I will not apply for the bachelor &  aitch eee double hockey sticks NO, I will not try online dating. so let the streaming thoughts continue I guess... I am hoping to be in my new house in the next few weeks. It is really stressful trying to do all the painting and sanding and bug killing by myself. It's a tricky balance between independence and feminism and all that crap...and just fricking wanting a boy to do it for me. I love picking everything out that I want, being selfish about it, etc...but seriously...prince charming needs to get off his lazy butt and get on that white horse. maybe by next winter for shoveling duties...ya think.  OK. that is more than enough. I am not in a feisty enough mood to really lay into a topic. Just trying to be like stella & get my groove back...but not in the trampy way. over&out

misSCOOP debut...

...never have I blogged before. I don't have any clue what this space will turn into, but as I look for design ideas for my soon to be first house, I have found wicked cool blogs. I guess if I take from those, as an artist, I should give back. This picture above is one of the projects I recently did with my 9th&10th grade art foundations students. We are going green & getting all earthy crunchy granola in my classroom. good times.
