woo-hoo!

yesterday i accepted a job at hardin-simmons university as the adjunct instructor of ceramics. it came out of nowhere, and a week later after a couple interviews the job is mine. its so bizarre, but i am so excited. i'm starting in the fall semester teaching 3 seperate classes. i feel really old, not in the sense of being elderly, but adult-like. its hard to explain, getting married and landing a teaching job, i guess i'm all growed up.

i'm finishing up an "order" of 150 yunomi for our wedding on june 7th. i have about half of them made, its been slow going, i can only make about 10-12 in a sitting before my finger starts to hurt too much(its broken, the nailgun incident.) we're giving a cup to everyone that comes to our reception, so i guess i'd better get off the internet and get back to work.

Hey Brandon, Congrats on the teaching position. I can't wait to get the pots I bought in MN so I can send them your way. Good luck w. the cups. It's fun making that many of one item. Hope the finger is healing.
Later,
Ron
