To Appease My Readers.... Er, Reader.....

Ya know, dear reader, Although it is truly a burden to take time out of my busy life of taking cat-naps and watching This Is Spinal Tap to update you on the fantasticalness that is Ailis; I have decided that I will do it because I care and because I appreciate your loyalty... And your ability to read!

Inspired by this bloggity-blog, I headed, all gung-ho, with my four dollars, to my local Salvation army... Or was it GoodWill? (Links included just in case you're feeling thrifty... Or donatingly generous!) to purchase a couple of XL men's t-shirts.

It only took me a week and a half and a lil bit of crafting pressure to go pick the t-shirts up off of my bedroom floor, pull out my self-healing mat, my rotary cutter and get to work...
Please ignore my creeper face in that shot but I really like the necklace's outcome! Wonder if I could get my Mom and Margie to sell some in their store? I'd wear them, wonder if other people would... The next one I make is going to have some cool wooden beads or something on it but I'll have to venture back to the thrift store another time to purchase more t-shirts because I refuse to cut up the blue shirt that I bought (I'm wearing it right now!) I've become quite fond of the little "Plaque Buster" tooth logo and the "If you got 'em floss 'em" quote that was obviously thought up by some witty dentist while repeatedly watching The Producers... Or maybe during an all night, brain-storming Orthodontist Association meeting.

So, yesterday I found out that my demo reel has been playing on the TVs at school. This usually is to be expected because every quarter the previous graduating student's reels are displayed. But since there were only five animation students that graduated last quarter, the school decided to create a new "Best of AI Demo Reels... Reel!" And mine is on there! (The only graduating student from last quarter to make the cut!!!) So they think mine is great! Which I think is great! ...Great!

Aaaand with that little introduction, in case you haven't seen it before, here it is!

Now I only need to get someone to hire me!
