…and all i’ve done is paint a base coat of yellow ochre on my canvas. if they made oil paint a scent, i would subscribe to it.

[in case you were wondering what color "yellow ochre" is. it reminds me of vermeer for some reason]
ive also been very arts&craftsy lately aka spinster-in-the-making.
for mother’s day, i knit flowers for the matriarch and the grand matriarch.
it was fun until i realized i was having an allergic reaction to one of the yarns and a mild rash/hives started breaking out.
then i moved on to japanese-wonder-store daiso and purchased for $1.50 purse clasp and $1.50 4 sheets of diff colored felts! and 5 hours later (spread over 24 hours), i made a pouch personalized to my own usage (hole for earphones). needlework is hard–i dont know how women did it back in the day let alone in third world countries.
and last but not least, GO SHARKS! (bandwagon)

end of updates.
cue and that’s miiiiiike’s super short show!
