Since last thursday, I have not had a bed time earlier than 1am, or later than 5am. Regardless of what the clock reads when my brain finally decides that I'm allowed to rest, I wake up at 6am ... and every hour in between there, dead on the hour. There has got to be some reason for this, I'm convinced that there is. But the insomnia fairy has left no hard evidence.
I know that the reason I haven't been able to get any sleep, is because of this clothing line. You know that analogy that people use, "You know when a kid is going to disney world, and it's the night before, and they can't sleep because they're too excited. But their mom and dad say that they have to go to sleep, or they will be too tired to see Mickey when they get there?" I'm that kid. Definitely overly excited. Definitely not sleeping. And I don't care about Mickey, I just want to see my clothes on people, for crying out loud. This is all so incredibly mind blowing to me. Things are actually happening. There is a serious positive snowball effect going on over here. And I will do no complaining about it.
So, my partner has decided to make my dream come true, and have me design and hand make an outrageous high fashion dress for the line to sell. This is my incredible fantasy that I dream about on a daily basis. When I sketch things, I picture them on the people walking by. I'm sick, I know. The thing is, I'm feeling the pressure. Like, seriously feeling the pressure. I want it to be a dream dress come true. I want to make something that Balmain would be proud of. I want to make something that people will look at and say, wow, that's incredible, and not wow, who the heck would wear that? I sketch the best ideas when I'm not even thinking about it. But now I'm thinking SO hard, like, losing sleep over it hard, and now I have too many ideas. Help. I'm having design overload in this little brain of mine. I've expanded it beyond it's capacity. So, ladies, any ideas of what YOU would like to see, would be helpful. Please, help me sleep at night.
Things have been going really well. I'm really really busy, with no free days, ever, but I love it. I'm working on my dream, and that will never get old, boring or exhausting. I love every last second of it. And hey, what's an extra pot of coffee on a daily basis, right?
Toodles!
