New Studio : The View From Up Here

Toronto sky line

I’ve finally moved into my new studio! I'm so happy to be here. I already feel so much more productive, and while this place is slowly getting organized, I’m managing start work on some new designs. It’s a bit too soon to show you around the space, but in the meantime, I took some rooftop photos to show you the view from my building.

This photo nearly cost me my life!!! Not really. I ended up getting locked on the roof. This is so typical! Of course, it's also the tallest building in China town on a cold, windy day with no chance of my voice being heard way down on the street. I brought my phone along, so there was still hope, but while I froze my butt off awaiting my rescue I started thinking of that Danny Boyle movie, 127 hours, and of people in dire, impossible situations (which mine was not, but my brain works this way). That movie is bonkers; you should watch it.

For fun, I figured out what my escape plan might have been, had I not had a phone. It would have involved a clumsy, probably painful jump to the fire escape> I would have been willing to sprain my ankle, but I would have made it. Next time I'll know what to do.
