Brilliant. Since I can't do much else, I've been watching a lot of TV shows online, and The Office has me captivated tonight.
I saw part of this episode when I was camping out in the basement at school one night. A couple had the whole season and were watching a bunch of it. That was the first time I had ever seen it. At first I was totally confused because the style of the film is so unconventional, but I definitely enjoy it that way.

I talked to dad earlier this morning. I think I like talking to him on the phone. Most of the time when I have something to say about dad, I'm complaining about something he did or said. But, talking to him on the phone today reminded me that I love him. I was afraid of him cringing over the things I was talking to him about, but instead he offered me encouragement. He said he misses me. I'm going to make him cookies when I get home.
Is there such a thing as having too many hobbies? Or going too far with a hobby? I mean, some people have hobbies that are very low maintenance. They just for fun or relaxation. That's the essence of a hobby, right? So, the things I like doing, are they just hobbies? Are they too serious to be called that?
The things I consider my hobbies are past times like sewing or jewelry crafting. And yet, I take these things so seriously. I want to always get so much better and really "make" something out of these hobbies.
But, really, that's impossible. I'd kill myself over trying to be the best at all the things I like to do. I guess that relates back to the TaeKwonDo thing. I wanted to work so hard at it that it frustrated me. There are so many things that I wish I could just devote myself to singularly so I could focus on it and become great at it. Sort of like going to a camp for something specific. But... for a lot longer.
So, my latest idea is selling crafty things on Etsy. Jewelry, crocheted things, geeky stuff. Lego earrings. Matchbox necklaces. Bubblegum rings. Injured monsters with bandaids. Robot themed cell phone pouches. An armband with a print of a page from a well known book. Patches with old video game themes (good games that are neglected like Chrono Trigger sprites or Seiken Densetsu 3). Maybe I'll look into remodeling shoes that I find at garage sales or something. Painting them and gluing on miscellaneous items that dorks would drool over. We'll see. Too bad I didn't think to do this at the beginning of summer. Hah.
Anyway, I definitly want to pop in at some garage sales and snitch some old clothes to sew breakfast on.
Like this!
Speaking of crafty things...
I read an article about this guy, Michael Amos, in one of Asher's playstation magazines. Check out his webpage. He does photography, design, and he creates action models out of other action models. I'd love to try that. And I will.

The reason I brought up the hobbies thing was because I was thinking about my bass guitar. I've had that guitar for a while now. It was Jared's and then Asher's and somehow it got passed on to me. Well, it's busted. On the way to Plattsuburg we stopped at a music store and I had the guy take a look at it to see if it was fixable. It needs new strings, a new.. peice...of wood... to keep the strings up (I can't remember what it was called), and the electronics need to be fixed. The other things wouldn't have been too bad, but apparently working on the inside would have been worthless since there was no guarentee it would work after all that anyway. So the guy suggested I just get a new guitar. I would like to. I've wanted to learn how to play the bass since the guitar fell into my hands, but I never looked into it too far. The only people who could teach me are too busy.
So, I may or may not get a new one. I want to, but I don't know if I'll have time to learn to play it. Maybe on the way back through Plattsburg I'll stop in again to look around. Again, we'll see.
I made this costume for Sam for halloween in 2005. Da Qiao - Dynasty Warriors. Now that I look back at it, it wasn't a bad first attempt, but it's still bad all the same. In fact, looking at it now embarasses me. It should have looked more like this...
It was fun though, and a learning experience, like everything else. I'd like to take another stab at it. Maybe if I can get the costume back from Sam I can work on it some more and adjust those awful proportions. Everything just looks so unfitted on her. I recall her being concerned about the short length of the skirt, but this is just terrible.
Well, at the time it was cute on her. And no, I'm not even going to show you the one I was wearing. Horrendous. Beyond that, even. Ahhh!!
That's all for now.

I've always liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to kind of rightful spend time staring at it as a formality of catharsis. In a route, it helps me with meditation, to mitigate stress and strain and scarcely deem fro nothing. That's why since I was a kid, a substitute alternatively of dolls and cars I've in any case cool more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, tuneful boxes etc. So I was most delighted when I found the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Inconsiderable Appear Laser Outstrip Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com answerable to the Toys section. It's like a tuneful caddy, a spinning top, and a radiance verify all rolled into one. Which is prodigious entertainment! The gyroscope will spin representing round a minute. The laser slight pretension with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a measure unequalled bauble that my friends be suffering with also been most amused with.
My dogs are also nice-looking eccentric prevalent the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They unceasingly occupy oneself with the gyroscope as it spins, although at first they kept barking at the laser diverting dismiss advertise, and also because it produces music. But after they got used it, they've stopped barking but due save up following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also bonny amused next to it. Occasionally it's moral to have entertaining toys on all sides the house so that you can leave the diminutive on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you live get up foodstuffs or receive changed. The gyroscope is a particular such toy with this purpose.
The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a pattern on it, and produces a dainty exposition with red, downcast, and unskilled colours. Nick a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser joyful show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that great but allowable plenty to entertain any supplementary guest to the house. The gyroscope is red and black, making it look extraordinarily cool, and to some arrogant with that dragon imprint.
The music light inform gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also euphemistic pre-owned this gyroscope to surprise my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy chore of decorating the pension elbow-room with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as correctly so that the laser torchlight expose produces a romantic effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the light effects created a rather mawkish atmosphere. She loved it, not later than the going, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my default shopping site in favour of all gifts and ideas for romanticist occasions.
Since Christmas is coming, this laser lamp make clear gyroscope can perhaps be a great Christmas give-away in behalf of the toddler or even the favoured! Alternatively, the gyroscope can really be a kindly totalling to the ordinary Christmas decorations. I can presume placing it near the Christmas tree and perhaps spinning it when guests arrive in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my subject anyway again!
