Thought.Of.Moment

I have been wanting to dip my toes back into the more artsy side of life. But I don't have a clue about content. Maybe I will ease into it with some color blocking. Need Canvas. Need Paint. Damnit.

Love these!!! I didn't have tube beads so I used seed beads. I wanted 'Real' DNA so I used 4 colors to represent ATCG.

Anyone watch the Magic School Bus when they were little? These remind me of Mrs. Frizzle. Hehe.

Jeff took Jeremiah, Alan, and I to The Geek Group this day. It's a hacker space in Grand Rapids. It was really cool. The president showed us a tesla coil. Loud as hell. But hella cool to see. It has the largest voltage in the world, I think he said? The building used to be an old YMCA. I feel that the YMCA closed down because they lost all of the children. Why, you ask? It is like a Maze in there. A huge one. Totally BA though.

Then, we went to a place called Arnie's. We ate Scandinavian Shuffles. AKA Turkey Wrap. But they did give us free cupcakes. Which totally rocked.

Then we went to Mr.E-Liquid. A vapor ciggy store. They have vapor ciggys that are basically traveling hookas.

Learned Skype.

Hmm.

Sorry. I forget that you are here. And when I remember I have no idea what to say. Last February, eh? About a year ago. There really is no excuse for that.

Books this past year? Yeah, I've read a few. Several by Haruki Murakami. A Wild Sheep Chase, Dance Dance Dance, and A Wind Up Bird Chronicle. Zodiac by Neil Stephenson, which is an Eco-thriller. The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian by Sherman Alexie. Also, of course, Anthro books for school. I think I would like to try to write a book one day. Nothing serious, or epic. Short stories maybe?

Crafting? Yeah, a lot. I really need to start putting them here.

Games? Some. I am not a huge video gamer. However, I did play Professor Layton and The Spector, as well as The Walking Dead for PS3.  Table top games I have played more of. Skip Bo, Elder Signs, Forbidden Island, The Grey's Anatomy board game, and Zombie Dice are some of them.

Hmm.

Today we made perogies. It is a friend's family tradition. They're Polish. It was a lot of fun. Took approx. 3.5 hours to do. Crazy tasty though.

Okay. Well. Good Night.

So, I work as a fill-in custodian at a college. Being that all the students are gone, so is the trash... 8 hours and I managed 1/2 a bag of trash. Awesome.

I diddled in the world of plarn yesterday. ... I love the concept and the whole recycle and reuse thing, however... I was not so loving of the way it behaves. Acrylic crochet hooks are a no no because there is so much plastic friction happening.

Made perogies with Jeremiah and his family. I had a wonderful time. The filling was Sausage and sauerkraut. Very Yummy. I don't have any Polish lineage in my family so I was happy to experience the tradition with them.

I wont lie... I am very tired. Gotta love the night shift.

PS. I think I am in love with Google Chrome.
