Stuff to be excited about

Today is Friday of week five, which means, five more weeks to go.  

I still have a lot to do, but I have been sticking pretty well to the lists and goals I am setting myself, and am making, if not headway, at least...stay-stillway:  

I have the first two spreads/four pages of the book I'm re-illustrating finished.  

I submitted a design I did to the latest AIGA contest, "Context". 

I have a very exciting informational interview planned with awesome Pittsburgh illustrator Rhonda Libbey for this coming Monday, and have been invited to drop by the Pittsburgh Society of Illustrators meetings -- which I sadly won't be able to do this month, but hopefully in March or April.  

And I am even mostly keeping up with my schoolwork -- a fact that amazes me.  

All the same, regardless of how much work I get done (unless I utterly flail for the next five weeks) I'm going to be happy when the end of March rolls around.  

I think I want to go to The Melting Pot to celebrate my success.  Dipping stuff in other stuff that is melted sounds like a good way to do so.
