Stop me oh, oh stop me. Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before.

Wow, it's been a while since I've updated this thing.

January has been an exciting month for many reasons, but work hasn't been one of them.

December was a great month, full of holiday cheer (booze), parties (booze), and the usual festivities (booze). In light of this, I decided that January would be a detox month, on the way to drinking less during the work-week. That was my new year's resolution.

This has gone pretty well on the days that I've not been stressed out at work. The boo on this is that I seem to be constantly stressed out at work, or have been more so this month. I've had a few irate customers, a few idiot ones, and a co-worker that makes me want to cut myself so far. It seems that the last..8 or 9 days at work have made me want a vodka tonic more than air.

In other news, I'm working on a sweet art project involving embroidery and bleach! Maybe pictures soon (If I can get it in gear!). TheCraftateria has also been doing better this month. I think and hope we're getting more traffic than we did when we first "opened shop". We've got more plans up our sleeves, so stay tuned for that!

Every post seems to start out about the same, so I've decided to start out this and possibly future posts with something a little different. Probably a little random because it tends to be my style. First, random: Remember Marriedtothesea ? It's been a couple years since I followed this webcomic, but today we reunited, however briefly. Their comics along with the original Toothpastefordinner , range from probably-too-smart-for-me to omg-hilarious. In any case, here's a recent gem: I am still unsure of how to properly give credit to authors of sites and images without "hotlinking". So I have not linked this image. However, I hope it's pretty evident if you've read anything above: this ain't mine, it's Marriedtothesea.com's. Now on with the update.. Another "art scarf" made while I was on vacation.. Yes, it's a little wonky, no judging. That's a geometric interior pocket you're seeing. Finally onto the most recent addition:

I’m not what you think I am I’m the king of Siam

Well well, we meet again. I don't have much of an update tonight because I'm moving tomorrow A.M. and almost everything I want to play with is packed. I'm actually quite anxious about this move, though I'm sure it will go fairly smoothly. Utilities are all turned on (new house), the house I'm leaving is in relatively good shape (though I'm sure the panic will set in when I wake up tomorrow..), and I totally fixed the hole I tore in the paint in my bedroom. Still, despite everyone that's helping me and the excitement to move to the new house, I still kind of feel like I'm doing this on my own. Oh, and I haven't heard back from the future landlord yet regarding when I can pick up the key, which scares me a lot little. Think happy thoughts.. In any case, not much crafting or sewing going on right now, I've resigned to playing DS and trying to imagine how much I can fit in that box over there. Have I mentioned how much this moving has consumed me? I&

Tonight the neon answers flare, Occasionally we stop and stare past tiny paintings, painted where the clouds were wrong,

With killer stares and sideways frowns, In keeping with, the universe all upside down, twice (twice, twice) And broken legs and arms in slings, You cry secretly, you won't wear my diamond rings why (why, why)? A billion cares, a thousand stings we lie frequently, Choose the chapter where he starts Fight (fight, fight) Two millionaires have bought this town and changed everything. I found you in a lost and found, Why why why! -Architecture in Helsinki, "Tiny Paintings" Random update! I've obviously been out of blogging for a while. Since July, I've gotten a full-time job at Christie Cookies here in Nashville. I get to do their graphic design in addition to their regular business, so I've kept myself pretty busy for the past several months. Here's one thing that I did complete out of no where the other day. A good friend of mine inspired me with a beautiful painting of 64 doors so I thought I'd give it a try. But naturally with robots.
