Such an optimist I was! I worked on my booth layout until 10:30 last night and when my eyelids wouldn't even stay open with toothpicks, I gave in and let myself succumb to sleep even though I didn't even have a piece list completed, much less anything else. I was so tired I slept right through my anxiety attack at 4:00 this morning. Well, I woke for a couple of minutes, but my subconscious just couldn't get my neurons awake enough to fire false adrenalin through my system and I fell right back to sleep.
I did manage to get stands ordered today--two sets of them, both will be here Friday. *sigh* I don't need two sets and can't afford two sets, and it's a long story that I won't go into now, but I found myself succumbing again--but this time not to sleep (or the blandishments of a fast-talking man... well, he was a fast-talking man, but he didn't talk to me about the things fast-talking men usually talk to me about... come to think of it, it's been a long time since any fast-talking man talked to me about those things... I must be getting old).
So the stands are ordered, and the booth layout and piece list are *almost* finished (I am determined not to sleep till they are completely done and I have a firing schedule to attack at 8:30 am tomorrow). To help me in my endeavor, I am keeping this post very short tonight and closing with pictures of happy brownies from yesterday's fieldtrip. Thanks to Dee, Todd and Judy without whom I never would have been able to pull it off.

If it helps at all, I'm still finalizing work for BMAC tonight as well. I crazily booked a show for this coming weekend, so I'm leaving Fri, then I'll be home for all of a day (Mon) before driving off to Philly. Somehow I think I should be more panicked than I actually am...
Happy Brownies! Isn't it cute?
