February 25th

I made a decoration for my car! I found this clear cd packaged with a bunch of recordable/rewriteable cds I bought. I’m not sure why they felt compelled to include a clear cd, but I decided I might as well do something creative with it. I used sharpies, elastic wire, stickers, and a quote from On the Road< by Jack Kerouac.

Dangling against my wall.

So you can see it better, against paper.

“…because the only people that interest me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yearn or say a commonplace thing… but burn, burn, burn like roman candles across the night.” - Jack Kerouac

OH BAD PUN FOR THE WIN. But look! I’m on time, I’m on time, I’m on time! NO. NOT YOUR FANCY EASTERN-STANDARD TIME I USED TO LIVE IN. MY OWN CENTRAL TIME. HOW ABOUT THAT. (Your mother was a hamstring and your father smelt of elderberries :p)

But anyway, how exciting is that?! I like being not-late. I’m too anal to be late, that being said, the last two days have bothered me. Anyway, ramble ramble here’s day 7’s thing. I have decided to make my converse sneakers spiffy and fabulous! Wohoo, sharpies! This didn’t take me much time at all, and the designs I chose were completely at whim, but I really like how they came out and mesh together in a strange way. They are very ME, if you know me, haha. And considering I can’t really draw, I’m content.
