heather, if you are reading, let me just say this: a man who will come over to your sister in law's apartment at 1 am to help her dispose of a dead baby mouse is one thing--a keeper.
(and here they are, dumping the contents of the zapper:)
of course, last night as i settled in for a relaxing evening at home (this was pre-kill), i thought i would give my email one last check. this appeared in my inbox:
Hi, Noelle,
I know this is rather last minute, and we've never worked together, but I ran into your website when I was searching for a makeup artist.
I have a test shoot tomorrow night (January 26) from 5:30-9ish, with Tara from DNA Models. My regular makeup artist had to decline due to a job, and I've exhausted my other resources.
Please let me know if you're interested."
i looked at his website and it is killer, just the kind of stuff i need for my book.
alas, i was too late. in the two hours between him sending me his email and my reply, he had already found someone for the job.
ah well, atleast i made a new contact, i suppose. one who already has a regular makeup artist. (argh.)
