bullet points
- my best friend really really really wants me to read Twilight. sigh. I probably should read it just so I'll have a point of conversation with my younger cousins, who aren't readers but have apparently all finished the series.
- she also spent some time discussing the ways that she thought my characterization of Draco Malfoy in Far Away as Moonshine echoed that of Michael Corleone in The Godfather series.
- and we spent our lunch talking racebending and white-washing in film, something she's been aware of and talking about for longer than I.
- good times, despite the sparkly vampire complication.
- Friday evening I actually went out. Yes, really. Had dinner and then drinks with friends. I visited a new bar I'd never been to, and had some lovely Scotch.
- The lightning on Friday was apocalyptic. Made me wish I had a camera with instant shutter speed, to capture it.
- Saturday morning at the gas station, a lady saw my "I'm blogging this" t-shirt and said, "Hey, can I ask you about blogging?" So we ended up having a conversation about social media while my tank filled. Bizarre.
- Spent Saturday evening at my aunt's house. We had dinner and conversation and played two rounds of Scrabble. Fun times.
- Today Mom and I made a HUGE dent in my cleaning. We moved the sewing cabinet, and put away almost all the books, although actually really they're all thrown willy-nilly onto shelves, not actually organized. It'll take me weeks to get them organized.
- I hung two more pictures on the walls, too.
- Baking soda really is a miracle cleaner.
- I have two more bigbang arts to do, and then a fest to illustrate before Snupin Santa hits.
- I'm working on a concept for a series of fairy tale illustrations in Prismacolor and ink, for my Advanced Visual Arts studio class this semester.
