At the same time I guess it doesn't entirely matter if it's I or II, it all sucks. At least that's how I view it. I think the professional's opinion comes into play a lot.
That art gallery sounds like it would be an awesome idea!!

Thanks!
I'm working on the first piece now.
The way it was described to me, I wasn't so out of touch with reality that I was proclaiming myself to be Jesus, so it was hypo. Even though I thought I had superpowers (albeit just thinking I could take on anyone that tried to harm me while I was walking alone at night and thinking I no longer had to sleep ever).
