Okay. So I'm not riding some high horse about my design and I think I should safely be allowed to say I enjoy my design without seeming like a pompous horse's ass. However, I recently received the average score of my first design and find that I apparently underwhelm quite a few people out there.

First Reaction:"Ah gee, that sure was a let down"
Second Reaction: "My design rocks! Who are they to give me a 1.83?"
Third Reaction:"Well, it is sorta my first design and...well, lots of the greats here on Threadless didn't get printed until their 20th or 30th sub... Flying Mouse was declined 100 times! (or so it appears according to his "I've been printed" vs "Submissions" lists.)
Final Reaction:"I guess I have some work to do and I really should get on that. Golly, I love art."

All in all, I need some sleep (spent the entire night in the emergency room due to a boyfriend's gastritis) and perhaps a bubble bath.
