On drugs again


Edited to add links to the vases: printerror on Etsy. You can find some of the same designs for cheaper elsewhere around etsy, but they’re smaller and lower quality. This guy has a really good printer, so it’s worth the extra bucks.

Spent the weekend at a resort with two of my oldest friends. Tried to convince their toddler that using a pool floatie was super fun; stuck my head in it, fell off the stairs, and got all the water in the pool up my nose. The pool bacteria was really excited about this. Woke up with a sinus infection. Tried to make an appointment with my doctor, who could see me in 2 weeks, so I ended up at the CVS minute clinic AGAIN. Why do we have primary care doctors even? 

Now I am in bed with a bottle of giant antibiotic pills, but I am happy because:

a) had a great weekend with friends
b) my decapitated head vase arrived today


I also got a planter made of legs. 



These are INVESTMENTS, okay? They are still life props. I have decided to take atelier classes online to learn how to paint like the olde Flemish masters, and it turns out Flemish painters took anywhere from 3 weeks to 2 YEARS to finish a painting because they need to dry the damn things for about a week between each step. So that is a lot of time to shop for 3D printed vases.

I actually did get decent pictures of myself this weekend, but I took them in Instagram and saved them as a draft, and then the program crashed and took them with it. Oh well.

  1. Bad luck with the sinus infection but a pleasant way to catch it.
    I love the legs - such pretty feet.
    Is that a little heron? Whatever, it is beautiful.

  2. Lady, you are not meant to go on vacation. Or even just away. I do admire your persistence in trying, though.

  3. leg vase rules! I looked for one online but only found one that looked more like blob legs than well defined ones. The flemish had more time on their hands than we do and no choice, really, but to wait for a year to dry the oils. What else was there going on? certainly not this sped up version of life on the planet!
