One word. SYNCRONICITY. For the last week I can't get over how so many seemingly random events have been aligning themselves. I wonder, are these things always like this and I just refuse to notice it, or is it in the stars and I should pay closer attention to my horoscope.
Still there is always that moment when you are about to give up hope, when you're questioning your worth and motivation meter is in the black, then you glimpse that teeny little ray of hope. I can always appreciate a reminder of my worth and in any form it may be I'll find it!
First of all it was nice surprise to be featured in The Storque mag picks of the week on Etsy. I haven't figured out how Etsy can actually make me any money, so I could definitely use the free advertising.
Even better though is that I met some totally legit Miss Cake fans. That means I didn't know them but they knew me...and that's how I like it! These two women came into Trocadero, the boutique where I work, and were just looking around. When they got to the counter, one picked up my postcard and said "hey it's Miss Cake! Do you recognize this?" and her friend said "yeah that's been hanging on your fridge". Then they started talking about wanting to go see "her" show in Lincoln and this and that. I have to admit it's pretty funny to hear yourself talked about as if you're not there. Oh, the crazy things you'd hear... So anyways, I figured I'd better introduce myself or face the consequences of what they had to say next. They seemed to know a lot about my work and it made me totally happEEY. Our neighbor who was sitting outside told me they walked out and were talking about how they got to meet "Miss Cake". My plan is in action Jackson. Everybody wants their 15 min of fame and I try not to take mine too seriously. Still I'm hoping that's just the first notch in the celebrity belt. :)
