Flight 1557 to San Francisco leaves Without Lucky Penny


I spoke to my editor on Tuesday after sending some test shots, in preparation for the shoot this weekend. We have to take a different approach to the photography, and we couldn't book studio space, line up the models, etc., to make my trip out to San Francisco productive. So it's on hold. I now will finish all my designs before we do any photography, and hopefully I can get my work situation repaired before I go. If I had gone this weekend, the make up time at work would have been brutal. So the situation is not all bad. This is my little Gidget in 2001, before all hell broke loose in our lives. The expression on her face is about how I feel now. I got my hair cut tonight, and just wanted to fall asleep when I hung my head back in the sink for the shampoo and scalp massage.
Back to Gidget. I don't know if I have the words to describe how adorable and special she was. I did not get to spend her whole life with her--only a few years, but I should have always been her mommy. I keep her memory alive by keeping her on the Lucky Penny site.

Corey! I am so glad you don't have to kill yourself at work in order to take your trip this weekend. Hopefully, your interview will do the trick. I will have Bert and Felix send some of their 'kitty luck' your way.
