Foam drifting...proceed with caution

Hmmm... which to post first, the project that has a six figure budget and has nothing to do with school and everything to do with real world opportunities in the workplace, or the pictures of my homemade earrings and other seemingly random and comparatively insignificant items from around my room that I took pictures of because I didn't want to sketch or crack eggs anymore? A little thing that is important to me like the ring that Megan bartered for me at the flea market and a big thing like tons of people counting on you to come through and build them a perfectly magnificent stage set, are vying for first here. I will relent and say that the fact that other people's time being on the line makes the big project somewhat more significant, but please don't
forget about the little antique costume ring that made my whole day cause it's really cool and Megan got the lady down to $5 from $$! That's my handy dandy Meg!



Ok, so these pictures show our first day sculpting foam! We're making Bethlehem right now and the large foam wall is going to be a gate that cars can drive through and several camels I'm told(do you even know how expensive it is rent a camel in D.C.? Do you even know?!). The foam is drifting, I wonder what it would be like to ski in... Hmmm.. corn snow?

Now for the peanut gallery that is my life. The eggs are for an art project that is due Tuesday next, more on that later, all I'll say is that I have to drain 100 eggs and right now I have 76 to go. The ring is so cool, you can flip the center stone so that it's either black or white, so I figure I can take advantage of this handy dandy ring and indicate without having to explain whether it's a good day or a bad day. Black means bad day, don't give me homework, give me ice cream, white means good day it's almost the weekend and we're going to the city soon so lets go have some ice cream. And that is just how simple life can be.
