So...

More magnets

I really like those magnets. I may have to make another set for myself. Not that I have room for to keep more magnets.

He wrote back. (refer to earlier posts from today) He remembered. I couldn't help but smile. I don't know why I always think I'm so forgettable. There was one time, but it was one time. *sigh* I need to get a higher opinion of myself.

Thanks for the comments, before. :)

Gulp

So I did it. I'm not expecting anything. I'm a realist. I needed to do this, for me. Which may be selfish. But if I didn't, I'd always wonder.

Connectivity

I just found a guy I went to elementary school with on Facebook. I'm a mess, now. We lost touch when he left the continent with his family. There was a lot more surrounding that, too. I guess I could just send him a message. But I don't want to be stalker-ish. I was just thinking about him yesterday because of a thread posted in Etsy forums. So maybe...oh, I don't know. I'm probably over-complicating this. I do that.

September

So we're two days into one of my favorite months of the year. I'm not sure exactly why. My birthday's not in this month and Christmas is in December. (Last I checked at least.) Maybe it's because I still associate it with going back to school and I liked school. Summer really was a bit overrated after the first few weeks. (I'm the kid who played school, strictly, at home. )



I listed these today. I know, I never list on Sundays. But I sold my PIF so I figured I'd list something else. Yeah, blew through that $.20 like nothing. Ha!
*is cracking herself up*

I'm almost done spackling my room. Redoing my bedroom is becoming the second longest project of my life, next to finishing writing a book. I'm not really sure why there's been so much work stoppage. I'd really like to at least get the walls painted this month. One of my aunts is coming next month. She's never been to the house, and if you could see my room, you'd understand why I really should work on it.

I made so super-scrumptious lemon bars for myself. And my brother. We're the only ones who like them. Did I do that on purpose? Maybe. I finally got a texture I'm pleased with. Soy creamer...that's all I'm saying.

Okay, I'm going to pretending to be productive. I got to raid mom's corduroy stash so I should make some new wristlets. Now that I changed my shop name, though, the labels I have aren't right. Maybe I'll just use them anyway. Ha. I have a cool idea using a metal stamp, but that would involve a custom stamp, (I'm uber glad I didn't order one with my old name), and cutting tiny pieces of metal, and rivets. I don't want to get into all that now.

Plus I have magnet ideas. I drew the cutest squirrel. Okay, no, this is the cutest squirrel. (That word 'squirrel' is a link. Click it!)

FYI: Ha is my new word. Sort of my 'booyah'. :P And lately parathetical phrases rock. (see what I mean)

*throws confetti for those who made it to the end of this long post*

Thanks to Etsy

This started as a forum thread today. Then magnoliastreet put it on her blog. I figured I will too. *is copying, oh no :P*

Thanks to Etsy:

-I've discovered how much I really need to be creative.
-I've found out that I really love photography, whether I'm good at it remains to be determined.
-I look at everything wonder how they made it. How could I make it?
-I've 'met' a ton of super-cool talented people, artists of all kinds.
-I've decided that I want designing and making things, my interests are too vast too narrow down, to be a part of my life forever, what I do when I grow up. :P
-I've loaded up my room with more bits of paper, string, beads, and fabric.
-My family asks about my Etsy friends regularly. I still live at home. It's funny.
-My family asks if I can use things for packaging or reconstruction before they throw them away. I love FREE!
-I don't get much done sometimes. The ETC sections of the forums is addicting.
-I've found lots of other cool sites: Flickr, Blogger, Deviantart...to name a few. I was pretty sheltered.
-I desperately want to try about a dozen new techniques, that I knew nothing about prior to Etsy.


Etsy has seriously opened up so much to me. It's made this time when I don't have a job easier. (Though honestly, I quit my job with a lot of happiness. It's just the regular money that I miss.) I don't get to buy as much as I like...I like a lot.

That's it.

You can answer, now. :)
