The worst part about making crappy work is the feeling that I’ve wasted materials.
All that watercolor paper used and nothing to show for it? That’s a really super feeling.

My intellectual/creative breakdown has come to a close and I have a plan. It’s in writing and everything. I might even give myself a deadline to get it done.
I have been spending a lot of time cutting and sewing simple things to sell on Etsy. So I haven’t been very artsy but I’ve been trying to be crafty.

Everything I made this year has been shit. So much so that I decided to spend two hours brainstorming while making attempt to draw something and making my brain hurt attempting to finish work I started earlier in the year.
Now,I think I have a plan.
I hope I have a plan.

“If Sarah Palin were black, her daughter’s out of wedlock, “baby daddy drama” would have been presented as an example of both pathological behavior and a dysfunctional family that is symbolic of the social problems in that community. If Sarah Palin were black, never would the poor decision making by the Palin family be marked off as challenges overcome, or deeds to be valorized. If Sarah Palin were black, her neo-secessionist husband would have been the death knell for her political career, because as we all know you can’t trust “those people.” If Sarah Palin were black, her lack of intellectual curiosity, willful and cultivated ignorance, and lack of grace both written and spoken, would not be taken as “folksy.” Instead, Palin would be viewed as unqualified for any public office. If Sarah Palin were black she would be tarred and feathered as an “affirmative action baby.”

Just goes to show how far Palin’s whiteness can take her. Zero intellect, two high school drop-outs, an unwed teen mother, a quitter of the one major job she had. Master of hateful coded language targeting opponents as not “real Americans”. Belongs to a church outside of the mainstream. Still a top GOP candidate.

Meanwhile, Michelle Obama, a Princeton and Harvard Law School graduate, lawyer, and university dean who made over $200K/year, gets called “ghetto” and a “welfare queen”.

I hope your mother/girlfriend/sister/friends/everyone asks what happened to your nose. I hope you have to explain that you thought it’d be funny to joke with your friend about raping the drunk girl across the street. I bet you didn’t think that the girl who was walking in front of you would turn around and punch you in the face. You’re a filthy piece of shit and I don’t regret this at all.
I LOVE THIS
yeah, get it grrrl!!!
#planning I’m good at setting up systems for productivity. I tend to never be as productive as I plan to be. I’ve got 8 “don’t break the chain” calendars to keep me productive during my break. Let’s see how this goes. I’ve got one for: art, craft, guitar practice, French, German, Spanish, reading, and the gym. How long are instagram things allowed to be? (Taken with Instagram)
