i like the rips in my pantyhose.

they just look really nice tonight.
one leg is ripped all over and if you look at it up close there are really nice lines where one set of runs meets another or one thread catches another. and the other leg is ripped to a lesser degree but all over the knee there is this scattering of round holes without the vertical runs.

it's just one of those things that makes you feel cool even though nobody else would notice the finer details of it. to most people they're just ripped tights.

in high school i remember being afraid of wearing ripped tights because they had a certain i'm-so-hardcore attitude that came with them and i was more the shy smart kid type even though i dressed strangely. ripped tights were the line i wouldn't cross.

i just read a bunch of this blog about things that are really awesome. like the little things that make your day. i think i should take more notice of these things because i was reading the list and being like "yeah, that totally is awesome but i never realized!"

for sculpture class our final project was to make a piece of furniture to put in the fine arts building lounge-area. i made the corner part of a couch-like arrangement of chairs and it has a curtain on it so if you want to get away from people for a minute you can close it and be alone for a while. a couple of people have told me that they like my chair and want to sit in it but there is always someone else sitting there. that was another nice thing.

knowing how to weld is probably not a good thing for when i go to furnish our apartment. the i-could-make-that attitude is okay when it comes to clothes and things, but some things? not so much!

but i do really want this tree bed, and i could make it for much less than $6000. anthropologie has such pretty pretty expensive things!

no, stop thinking these things! you cannot make everything!
