No one was buying me anything from my wishlist, so I did. Also, I cleaned up my paltry dA print shop to hide anything I wasn't willing to buy myself. Yea me.

Most of the prints I bought are small. I'm hoping to group them on my bedroom walls once I've finished painting. Thanks to everyone I bought from for offering their artwork in smaller sizes.

If only all wishes were so easily fulfilled...

I don't believe it... I've had a growing hoarding habit that I've been trying to break. I have been doing much better on not bringing more into my home, but I haven't been doing much to use up what I have.

Well, I flunked the "cleanliness" portion of an annual township home inspection because I had stuff strewn all over my floors. Granted, it was just papers, craft supplies, and boxes, but that didn't matter... as there wasn't a clear path to walk on and some of the piles were a bit too close to the now active baseboard heaters.

Today was the "redo"... and I did fantastic. The inspectors couldn't believe the difference. Of course, they didn't look in the closets (neat, but packed).

And now I have a wide open desk, a large dancing space in my living room, a nice study space in the back room, and, most importantly, I know where my art & crafts supplies are!

I'm just enjoying the space now... but I feel so relieved to have space to play and create and be messy in (without destroying my home). I feel so much more relaxed... I'll just soak this in for a while.

It's a overcast, misting kind of day. I keep hearing distant rumbles, but no strong storms are passing my way. They just seem to skirt all around my area...

So, I'm finally ready to do more with my stash. Soon as I find my camera...

My vacation time is becoming rather nerve raking. Two days in the shop and my car is still in pieces. That 3K for fun, a new wardrobe, and other sundry things? Yeah, that would be going to make sure I can spring my car out once its healthy. Oh, and skipping payments on a few bills to make rent tomorrow... now that's a thrill they don't have in the regional rollercoaster parks.



I don't mind being home, except when I'm trapped. I'm bloody sick of walking, esp. in this heat/humidity, though its still faster than the bus. (yes, an hour and a half walk to the mall is still faster than the local bus service. This would be why my car is being well fed with my money.)

So, I'm playing with my older money... you know, the money I spent on piles upon piles of fabric and other "art-sy" things. Joy. not.

I soooooo want my car back... but that might not happen until Saturday.

And, I sooooo don't want to do my planned outing tomorrow night. I planned it months ago with a friend who's schedule is really booked. Sadly, I'm hoping she'll forget or won't be able to make it (despite me calling this afternoon to leave a reminder message). I'm just fried with all the money/walking pains... I'm really not up for large crowds in the city, even if art is involved.

I went back to idling.

Like before, I find idling to be a quick way to find a wide range of deviants. I saw the "120 Stupidest things" on ~Solared26's and thought I'd give it a go.

I've done 90 from the list.

Oh, did you expect me to say which ones I did? I'm not --that=- stupid.



Edit: I stopped idling... after I saw some bigoted and hateful behavior displayed by the people behind the bot/room, I opted to take my time elsewhere. Looks like they lied anyway and another idle regime is gone suddenly. Good riddance! (add my time there to the "stupid" list)
