alright

Well went to see Coraline 3D tonight VERY good and highly enjoyable. Just totally want to read the book now!

*On a positive note, I looked at my pile of dirty laundry and my roommate's fat cat sniffing it and sighed shooed him out and finally picked up all the laundry I could see and picked up a bunch of trash and threw it away lined up some shoes. My cat is now looking at the floor like 'What's this mommy?' And just generally feel much better about being able to see the floor again.
This is a great thing.

*Today was not the day for beadmaking. I finished one bead. I burned myself twice on the same popped shard. The glass rod exploded part of it hit my sleeve and burned a bit after saying ow I set my forearm down on the workstation and it came into contact with the same burning shard apparently (or perhaps a different one? I didn't see, but I prefer the pathetic irony that allows me to complain about it so it's gonna be the same one) whereby it immediately began to raise a small blister on my skin so I looked like I got bit by a firefly. It just looks like a bug bite now.

yipee.

And the latest charcoal portrait

This is my first charcoal portrait in almost a year. You may recall the last one was my roommate Matt. This one is of my two dear friends Kyle and Sarah Littlefield's infant daughter, Katy, from a picture they took on their blogsite here:

and since blogger seems to have an upload limit on photos to 8mb
here is the link to the picture I drew:

Let me know what you think.
If you want a portrait done (from a picture) let me know.

reminder to myself from the Ruach through Val

"He WILL empower you to speak for yourself in a way that is not manipulative, but that IS clear and powerful"

no title

a tear rolls down my cheek
thief liar cheat
beaten to the floor
I can't get up anymore

you know you are right
I suppose I'm all those things
and more

I'm no basket case no more a drama queen
for 3 whole weeks I made no scene
then I let you push my buttons hence
and now I suppose this makes more sense

thief liar cheat
even though grace is mine
i guess you're right about me all the time

The Best of Craigs List

If you haven't heard of the best of Craig's List I highly recommend for laughter value you check it out. I was curious and clicked on the link not knowing what it was....and ad after weird and hilarious ad came to my amused perusal.
But this one takes the cake. These are not categorized, some are graphic, some are just plain strange.
This one has to be the WEIRDEST ad I have EVER seen on Craig's List....possibly anywhere definitely beating the weirdness factor I posted earlier for posting Glass Frit and selling it with Haiku.
For you viewing pleasure

I do warn you this is a want ad for a specific enjoyment.
