I am really, really pleased


with this photo series I'm working on.

I am doing a whole series of souvenirs, memento mori, ricordi. They're cards. And emotionally a little tough.

Oh, my God. I need to start practicing.

I'm really premiering the burlesque act live December 4! In public! Oh, yes!

Oh, no!
I have to figure out what music I'm using!
I have to commit to a costume! And I have to be able to get out of it, while using the walker.
I have to practice daily!

It's a case of "be careful what you ask for; you might get it"!
