Crafting carnage
Here's a handy dandy crafting tip for you:
Safety scissors are still dangerous when in the hands of the simple minded.
I just sliced like an inch out of the side of my thumb.
Anyone have B+ blood? I think I may need some if I don't stop bleeding soon...
I screwed up Mother's day and my wanting to be a good little step-child. I made Kim a very pretty picture frame and was like seconds from finishing it when it crumbled in my hands.
Made me cry. I also spent the rest of the night in a sour mood.
I planned to get up today (I've actually been doing that this week) and go to Michael's to get stuff to make her a new one, but apparently when I went to sleep last night I fell into a coma. I didn't hear mom call me this afternoon or hear my alarm go off at all.
I've decided now to make her a trivet like I'll make my mom since she cooks a lot (FYI if you need it, a trivet is like a soild hot pad you can put pans and thing on so you don't burn the counter).
I was in the process of breaking the purple tiles off of the pieces of picture frame so I could use them on her trivet and actually telling myself my use of the scissors was more than slightly stupid when I slipped and de-thumbed myself.
Yeah I'm a Jenius.
I'm gonna get those tiles back dammit.
My thumb hurts like a bitch... who knew an injury with a safety product would hurt so bad?
I have to take placement tests for school. Math and writing... sucks ass.
I get nervous about placement tests because while I think I can do fairly decent on them, I still have my usual nagging fear that I'll fail and be stuck taking classes I've already taken over again and thus will be stuck in college forever.
I don't need math to shink kids' minds.
I really don't need writing either.. as long as I can write "Needs more help than I can give..." and "Future inmate" I outta be alright aye?
Maybe I should look at pictures frames tomorrow too...
I feel like my area is still greatly imcomplete because I don't have all my pictures and stuff hung up yet.
I would at least like to have my hall way done this spring.
Frame's are expensive though... like crazy expensive.
So is college...
I have to pay 75 bucks to go to orientation. 75 bucks! For something I have to do to know what I'm doing when i start school. That's just stupid, as if it not's bad enough I have to pay em twice as much in tuition this year because I still qualify as an "out of state student".
Educated bastages.
I really need to go though, I'm still highly terrified of going to a big campus and I need help picking classes since this is my first time have an actual declared major.
Plus I want to make sure there's no way I can take music classes yet.
Wow, my thumb hurts.
Maybe I should just buy new tiles.... get these off later.
I don't want to waste em, cause they're a very pretty purple and supplies for this stuff are expensive with a capital "leave me broke", so just throwing them away doesn't appeal to me at all.
And yeah, I'm babbling...
I need to head to bed soon so I can get up at a decent time.
Maybe I can go to Michael's and actually get what I need and not spend all my mom's monies...
