Hey, everyone. New post! And I'm terribly in love with my colored paper... I don't think I'll ever draw on white paper again. Well, maybe, but only when I have to. It just looks so naked compared to my 'fawn'-colored paper ( Read more... )

Hello stranger. I'm not sure if I'm the only one who still reads this, but I keep writing it because I start to forget what I'm doing when my head is too full of things ( Read more... )

Life sort of fell into place today. Again, I meant to take a nap but never got around to it. Instead, after art class I made strides towards finishing a shirt I've been working on and did a little more embellishment on my latest dress. Both things are close, close, close to being done, which I think is what I need about now, psychologically ( Read more... )

I feel depressed on Sunday nights still even though it's summer. What the hell is with that? I like... didn't do shit this weekend. I hung out with people, but that was about it. None of my little projects are getting done. It's agonizing. I finally got some flower books from the library today... Went shopping too... bought some more stuff to hand- ( Read more... )

My latest dress is now functional, I guess you'd say... That is, it has all of its fasteners in place and could be worn. I still need to hem it, though, and I'm thinking of going to the library tomorrow and getting some flower books so I can trace more flowers to stitch onto it. And then I'll paint the flowers in. And it'll be hot. I think I'm ( Read more... )

Today in art class I drew a naked man. I liked him a little better than last summer's Naked Man, if only because he didn't look like he was going to die any minute. We also watched slides of some of the teacher's former students' paintings... they were gorgeous and I felt a little inadequite. One day I'll learn ( Read more... )

My fingers are sore from needlework, but it's a good sort of sore. My neck was sore yesterday because of some non-mumps swelling-type affliction, but I've been self-medicating and am in recovery. It freaked me out for a minute there, though. It's not everyday you get a mysterious lump in your neck ( Read more... )

Happy 4th of July, everyone! The day we celebrate our home-grown insurgents' victory over the mother nation. Our Patriot guerrila fighters and skilled propagandists banded together and built us a nation. History is a fascinating thing. I went and saw the fireworks and Civic Stadium tonight even though it's only the 3rd. I can't watch fireworks ( Read more... )

If I hadn't spent all of my evenings this week doing 20Below work, I would feel a little less mad. It's no surprise that they're having trouble getting new applicants... I mean, shit, I get paid the same amount for about a third of the time and a third of the work for running the sound system at church. I'm just tired of being ripped off is all... ( Read more... )
