goddamn right, it's a beautiful day

well, i mean, it's all rainy here in northern indiana, but that's just the same as ireland and it's a beautiful day for other reasons, anyway.

like the fact that i'm eating pango slices. they're pineapple core with mango flavoring and a bunch of sugar. yum.

or the fact that i'm in the process of sorting my jewellery making supplies and making a beautiful jewellery-making tote out of an ugly eighties-colored caboodles case.

or the fact that i'm getting ready to set up my very own studio at home.

or the bajillions of beautiful scarves and fabrics i bought in ireland to make stuff with and cover my dorm room walls in when school starts again. or all the amazing glass bottles i'm going to paint for pretties.

or the papermaking i get to do in the fall for independent study.

or the sewing i have planned to do this summer. and the knitting, crochet, sculpture, cooking, and other amazing things.

not to mention the way my dreads are behaving today. they're at the obnoxious two-month-old stage, but they'll get better.

did i mention the pango slices?

oh, it's good to be a hippie artist.
