OMG. I have connected with a glass person practically here in my own backyard! She responded to my post at WC! about looking for an assistant. We emailed a few times, she sent me her resume and stuff. Then we talked on the phone forever last night. She's coming to the house Friday, and we are BOTH so excited to meet!
You guys might have noticed that I'm not exactly a "color inside the lines" kind of glass grrl. I am always looking for a new twist... for a way to push the envelope. So is this person! It was like talking to ME on the phone! LOL!
I'm practically giddy here!
I don't want to jinx anything, but I think this could be the start of a glorious friendship! Personally, I think she is WAY too experienced to be my assistant. She insists otherwise. But at the VERY least, we both will now have someone to hang out with! And go to Glass Axis with! And MELT STUFF WITH! And she's into crucibles, and embedding cool stuff in glass, and trying things that people say you can't do, and she's dying to do electroforming, and she's BRAVE and UNAFRAID and, and, and.
Ok. I'll stop now. I can't wait until Friday!
