Enid in the Scarf Coset, A-Z master list

I combined two creative challenges during April 2015. I composed my posts as journal entries in the voice of my fake persona, Enid, for International Fake Journal Month.  Enid was tasked with organizing scarves. The A-Z theme was for the A-Z Blogging Challenge. The first link below will tell you more about Enid.

Here are links to all the Enid A-Z posts. I've included the additional Sunday posts.

IFJM 2015 Wrap Up

I had so much fun this time. The A-Z Challenge gave a good framework for the daily posts. Narrowing it down to A-Z scarves made it simpler, in an odd way.

I really like being Enid. I like her spunk. (Will she become a regular on SpyGirl? Maybe just maybe). The catalog card idea worked well. That part I was able to prep in advance so that all I needed to concentrate on were Enid's thoughts and designs. (I did my journaling and posts in the morning before my 6am pre-commute routine). I now want to make catalog cards for my entire wardrobe. Every garment has a story to tell.

The A-Z thing brought to mind my internship at M. Knoedler Gallery in NYC, when I was a junior in high school. They had just bought a second brownstone next door to their 70th Street location and had moved their library of auction catalogues and artist monographs. One of my duties was alphabetizing it all! (I did not "liberate" any tomes). Enid acted as a portal into my young awkward teenage self.

Using the same character for a second year made the fake journaling process all the easier. I was able to slip into Enid's skin like a comfortable tee.  Keeping to the black ink was frustrating and liberating at the same time. I could focus on the silhouette of my designs and not get distracted by color and pattern. 

I'm already day-dreaming about how to approach next year. And I think Enid won't be side-lined until April 1, 2016. Her antics can be followed using this URL: http://spygirl-amb.blogspot.com/search/label/enid

Before I sink into a luxurious day of RELAXING I want to tell you about this tee.
SpyGirl is going to wax all nostalgic about it in her blog today
BUT
She stole it from me!
She's convinced that she got it in Mesa [AZ] in 2000. Yeah right.
She shopped my closet in 2014. Grrrrr.

Stop everything!
Miz Bagg had one of her fits and fired Jasmine. No!
Jasmine was our office mom!
She brought in morning treats and made the coffee. I mean, I don't really know what she "did" - except get the office supplies. Which Segways into my current problem. Color printer needs cyan ink. Who is going to get it?
Today's sketch is how Jasmine would wear the scarf.

Why am I sorting this one with Q and not S (shibori) or J (Japanese)
Ha! It is my evil plot to make Mizzz Bagg have to go on a Quest to locate it.
Job security.

Errrrrr. Guess who did manage to find a party last night and then ate too much Chinese food and now has a splitting headache?

TAXES! GAH!
I can't put it off any longer. The hard part is tallying up all those expenses from that road trip with SpyGirl last year.
A certain song comes to mind by the O'Jays:
"For the Love of Money"
