Lazy Day
Today was a pretty laze day all around. But I have a good excuse. It was my birthday and I just felt like being lazy. Ok, I wasn't totally lazy. I went to the studio and unloaded the clay I brought up from Sacramento on Wednesday. I got some more cone 6 porcelain and a cone 6 stoneware to try out. I also got a cone 04 white. Yeah, Eric at IMCO screwed up his eyes and said not to put it in with the cone 6. Duh! I didn't give him a bad time for it. I actually had met him in 2000 in Penryn at a wood fire at Rodney Mott's. He told me there is another wood firing coming up in a couple of weeks. It is a tempting thought but I probably need to stay focused on what I need to get done here in June. You see, I will be gone for a month at Fresno Summer Arts. Oh Yeah! Two days ago I found out that I got a full scholarship for the program. Yippie! Alright, I could keep going with other minor things I got done today but this is starting to sound like a blah, blah, blah, post.

Hey congratulations on the scholarship!! That sounds like you will really love the program. Great news.
wow, a full scholarship that's great news, have fun. What clays did you get? I am having withdrawal on the Navajo Wheel; if only there was a way for me to get some that wasn't so costly for shipping.
Thanks Ann. Linda, I love Navajo Wheel. I'm lucky to be just two hours from the manufacturer. I got Cone 6 Porcelain and Stoneware 1-C, also cone 6, both from IMCO. I'm still trying to decide if I like this porcelain. I used to buy clay by the ton. Getting it by the bag is much more expensive. Oh well.

Hi Kelly, most times I just get bags too because I like fresh clay and I would be afraid it would dry out if I got a bunch at one time. I am switching to all East Coast clays so a whole new learning curve. Ugh. I didn't know what I was in for.
