I am off to Atlanta tomorrow to meet with clients for potential products and to see what is out there as well as hang with my peeps! It is so hard to be in this world which is secluded from people that it's nice to go to a place where everyone knows each other and can relate to what I do.
I remember in high school I felt like such the outsider eventhough I played basketball and had many friends, I just felt that no one got me that is until college! It was there that I felt at home with other creative people and lived in a world where I was the norm, not the ladder. This remained that way up until I moved back home in 97' since then it feels like a little of the old days with a couple of exceptions.
There are 2 peeps here who do what I do that I talk to allot, one is my old roomate from college who lives funny enough a town away. The other is the very talented Carol who lives in the North Shore! We are actually going on the plane ride to Atlanta together! So it's fun all the way down.
Carol has been doing this thing we call Licensing for quite a long time and knows everything and everyone, but don't expect to have her shell out all of her info, you do not get far in this business by giving it all away!!
I have been fortunate enough to have gotten amazing advice from her which I do not take lightly. She is an amazing friend with allot of personality to boot! Lots of fun to be around! So here we are off on another adventure to get some more business and hang with our peeps for some dish and laughter! I will try and take some photos but cannot guarantee it, since I might be soo tired and forget!
Have a great weekend all... talk to you soon..
See you in the morning Carol!!
