{Darryl Carter & his German Short-haired pointer... well, sadly not he pointer, but hopefully Darryl}
I'm going to a book signing!! (And embarrassed to show him my slightly destroyed copy of the book which has a torn & messed up dust jacket... It looks like I don't care about it but it's really the opposite--- I've read it too much and messed it up!! Dust jackets just aren't made for people like me. ;)

I could go on & on posting pictures but I'm not going to because I know you've probably already seen & drooled over most of them before. (In case you haven't, check out his website here.)
I have the tendency to creep people out when I'm a fan of theirs & I first meet them so I'm really going to try to reign it in at the book signing. (It's @ the tabletop Trade Show in Vienna!) I get a little excited (no, seriously, crazily, giddy, blabbery... ) because I feel like I know them. I've had conversations about them, I've read their books, I've devoured their portfolios and philosophies... I wonder "what would Darryl do?" haha yes, see? first name basis.
SO, I'm not sure if my plan to chill out will work or not because I am
SO. FREAKING. EXCITED!!!!!!!!
Will let you know how it goes & hopefully I can get a picture.
ps- Grandmother, if you're wondering who he is, he's the guy you showed me in the Washington Post waaaaay back when I was just getting interested in decorating & designing. You thought I should try giving him a call to see if he needed any help so I could learn from him. :) I love you.
