Lucy's Blog

It’s been a few weeks without a post.  So here’s what has been going on with me! (that I can remember)

• I started volunteering at Bluestockings, a completely volunteer run bookstore full of supar radical and queer books.
• my sleep schedule went fully out the window.
• dark prism made it’s Staten Island premiere.
• put violet in my hair to make it an actual rats nest.
• I spent way too much time listening to the microphones feeling feelings.
• My pottery teacher gave me a hand crocheted cape her partner found in the garbage, and it is my favorite thing in the whole world.
• I fell in love with The Epic of Gilgamesh.

While these are not even all the highlights of the last three weeks they are something and I feel compelled to post them incomplete or not just to bring things up to date.

Ending this post with my feelings towards cashews.

*This post is very late and I relate far less to the contents*

Some weeks i just relate to this terrible audio clip.

It looks like I’m going to use bullet points again to go over the highlights.

• Monday included doing math, going to poetry class and babysitting.
• On Tuesday two of my classes were canceled and I pretty much just went home and fell asleep after the remaining one was done.
• Wednesday: My belief in coordinating everything you own and also leopard print was reaffirmed when I met my friend’s tutor!
• Her home was filled with leopard print and she was wearing an almost completely blue outfit.  (Also her boyfriend spends his time putting glitter on various statues!!!)
• After that, I crashed a crafting day that my friend’s mom was having. I made prints and successfully knit lace!
• Knitting group took a non-knitting related field trip to the lower east side, which ended with all of us sitting in the park in chinatown watching the rats run all over.
•  Thursday: after the yearbook meeting my friend came over and we bought tons of vegetables and cooked an amazing meal.  We steamed kale with garlic and sautéed a whole bunch of other veggies. We also roasted a pumpkin which we made into a pie.

 

Trying to find a good way to structure these reflection posts.  (maybe just a list)

This week went by fast, so here are the highlights (and lowlights)

• (monday) saw Sofe’s cousin’s comedy show.  Had a pretty good time, ate a lot of other people’s food, while wearing a sweater that upset Sofe’s mother (it was v v ugly).  Overall I would’ve enjoyed the show more if I was a middle-aged straight woman(I was clearly not the target audience).

 

• (tuesday) walked over 40 blocks (mostly streets not avenues)

 

• (wednesday) I’m beginning to realize wednesday is a crafting day.  I have a ceramics and my knitting group.

 

• At the tail end of my knitting group Sara and I went down to see if we could watch Shia Labeouf marathon his movies.  Unfortunately there was a multiple block line and we didnt stay.  That night I had a very realistic dream that Shia took me aside and gave me very wise advice, but of course now I can’t remember what he said!

 

• (thursday) I’m not sure when, but sometime in the future I will post a bird video and the photo of me in the bird mask will make sense.

• also on thursday Sofe and I went to new jersey to investigate Arthur’s mysterious disappearance. His mom Linda explained everything and it was very bittersweet.

 

 

 

These probably should just be added to the previous post but I’m making a whole new post just to be dramatic.

I decided to make this lil cushion while I was brushing my teeth.^

Some feelings from Sunday^

 

Distort your pets.^

A sample of the pattern on the gown I altered.^

Not that much got done this week.  I guess that makes it a perfect week to ~blog~ about.

Here are some highlights:

• I had a terrible nightmare that every part of the world (including me) had turned into tubes.
• Started planning a spindle spinning class for children.
• Pet one of my favorite dogs.
• Made some pottery.
• Started knitting a new sweater (or vest).
• Made a lil art cushion.
• Altered a gown into a wearable dress.
• I did halloween party set up and clean up at different directions.
• Everything else is stuff that really isn’t worth mentioning.

Hopefully I’ll get better at ~blogging~ and actually write posts that aren’t lists. At least this is a start!
