It's that time of year again -- time for me to trek over to Montpelier for my MFA residency at VCFA. (That's Vermont College of Fine Arts -- or, as I discovered to my great glee last winter when I sent a box that way and ran out of room on the mailing label: Vermont College of F.Arts. I'm still laughing about that.)
I have one last semester left of my program and it's going to be a doozie. Over the course of the next six months, I'll write a lecture AND finish my creative thesis. This residency is kind of the gateway to all that, though, and a chance to spend nearly two weeks with a bunch of great people. Also, I get three squares a day without having to wash a single dish.
I don't know how much time I'll have to blog while I'm away at school -- but I'll try to stop in more than a few times. See you then!

11:45 p.m. update: Packed (mostly) and watching my kiddos sleep. I hate this part -- the part where it hits me that I'm voluntarily leaving my children for nearly two weeks. Sucks.
ReplyDelete11:53 p.m. update: Had to wake Jay to find the battery charger for the camera. Bad wife.
ReplyDelete4:16 a.m. update: Didn't have a chance to get sappy before leaving this morning. Shuttle came five minutes early. I was still throwing stuff in my suitcase and pulling clothes out the dryer. A quick kiss to my sleeping boys and husband and off I flew. In the shuttle to MSP now -- wifi on the go. Hot damn.
ReplyDelete4:45 a.m. update: The man sitting in front of me is looking at boobs on his laptop. And not just any boobs, but detailed cross-section illustrations.
ReplyDeleteYou're so funny!! Have a great time. I think I'd be most excited about 3 meals a day with no clean up :)
ReplyDelete9:05 a.m. update: Delayed in Detroit. But that's better than the race I'd anticipated across three terminals. Another bonus: No one around me is scrolling through pages of boobs.
