I need a tripod
Preferably a portable, collapsible, affordable one. I’m keeping my eyes peeled.

It adds character, but when I skip through to the hi res it looks kind of irresponsible. I’ll rescan some of these one of these days.

I went through old stuff looking for postcards...
I found collages in at least 6 journals so, yea, I’ll be scanning those for a while. Tomorrow it’s supply run time so I can finish and start projects. I want so many adhesives (I need rubber cement!). And some blank cards and some jewelry stuff. Also, there will be baking with my bestie. It sounds like the commute would be killer through downtown so I’m happy to have the day...

I should be creating something.
I feel like I’m wasting the free time that I don’t have enough of. Brit and I are baking and creating on Monday, but I can hardly waste tonight and tomorrow after spending today cleaning and tidying the dressing room/kitchen. I should be drinking more or less. I miss smoking inside. Why aren’t I creating right now?

I've spend $80 on postage in the last week.
I have three blank postcards addressed in my book that need to be decorated so I’m carrying around stickers. I don’t have any pens with me though, so this project will likely wait until this evening. Sending mail is more rewarding than just about anything. Getting mail is even better. Once I start making/packing/mailing holiday baking, it’s going to get really expensive. I just...

I lost the lens cap for my Diana F+ on Halloween...
Not only am I worried about my lens (I don’t have a camera bag, just a bag for my cameras), but it’s the hella adorable lens with the apple on the cover. I have a discount coupon and some piggies at Lomography website that I should maybe use. I’d really like to have cases for both of my lomo cameras. Or I could not raid the money I have stashed away to pay half the rent in...

I made 11 earrings tonight.
Life conspired to keep me from making a supply run though so I’m short on adhesives and jewelry parts. It’s almost 5 a.m., I’m meeting a friend at 10 and I’m not in the right head space for sleep. I bought film on sale tonight and I know I asked for 120 but I got 35 mm and didn’t even notice until I got home. It’s all 400 colour negative so I’ll...

I'm so fucking tired.
I swear, the shit never piles up like it piles up on a Thursday. I’ve got plans to go to the craft supply store on Saturday. I’m setting a budget and only buying adhesives and holiday present supplies. I’m so fucking tired. I think I’m going to go get a high fat, medium caffeine drink from somewhere and wander around the poster sale on campus.

I'm purging the collages I have so that I'll have...
I’ve barely created one since I moved out on my own over 18 months ago. I used to let the roomie issues (and before than, teenage angst) come out through my paper work when I was afraid or unwilling to write explicit thoughts in my journal. Now I tend to try to get closer to happy, but I feel really unfulfilled not making more “art”. I’m really pissed that my scanner is so...
