i still can't get over the fact that i was a part of making this.

i'm so proud of my team and myself and everything. the longest wall on this thing is 28 feet long and it reaches over 10 feet tall. it's enormous and the fact that we built this in a matter of weeks is astounding.

this literally changed how i think about art, how i think about myself, and reassured me that i am, in fact, doing what i love. it was so hard, and coming home at 4am every night is utterly miserable, but it was totally worth every second, just to see how happy it made people, and to watch people be interested in it.

i fucking love art.

going home this october will be the first time that there have been no dogs in my house. in my memory, at least. there was a period between my birth and before i turned about two when the regler household was dogless, but that was short lived.

i miss you terribly, pups. you were such a huge part of my life.

this photo is such terrible quality and i had to change it to black and white so the coloring wouldn't be as awful but it's still one of my favorite of them.

so sophie's essentially given up the will to live without lacey, is what i've gotten from this.

i don't know if i'm going to be able to see my dog ever again.

i'm glad i prolong the goodbyes every time i leave for new york at least so i know that it was a good one.

it just sucks that i may not be able to be there for both of their final moments. like lacey was more "my" dog but STILL it fucking sucks.

it's like the end of an era. i'm not ready for it. coming home is going to suck.
