Because my idiotic brother can't tear himself away from "Halo 3" or "Call of Duty 4" the other night, and I was sick of waiting around to use the modem. Yes, I would like to murder Xbox Live, because when he plays those stupid games, he not only monopolizes the TV, but the internet connection as well. And he can easily burn through 4 or 5 hours playing that. What a waste of time! I mean, I am a huge proponent of the concept of a little laziness and time-wasting in order to be healthy. But there's NOTHING to show for that.
I love watching movies, my mother thinks it's a waste of time. But any artist is never truly wasting time if he or she is taking in imagery, interactions, relationships, etc. All of that stuff collects in your mind and finds a way into something you create, if it really sticks and leaves an impression. So I feel like I could be doing pretty much anything and it wouldn't really be a waste of time. Not to mention, I often work on crochet projects while I watch TV or movies. But there is something to be said for hanging around on a crappy day (such as this one) and playing video games or watching movies. Everyone needs to slow down and veg occasionally.
I have about 7 hats now, and a few scarves, plus tons of jewelry. So I hope this weekend's craft show will be much better than the last one. I have tons of new ideas, but I don't think I could get enough of each thing made by Friday, and I hate having just one or two of an item in my shop or my booth.
I plan to try to post a list of my top 10 or so favorite albums or artists or something list-oriented tomorrow. I love lists! :)
