I Have Some Very Cute And Funny Neighbors.

Karma?

Had a few things to do tonight before heading off on a much needed escape, they are as follows.

1. Go with Allison to get a new swimsuit.

2. Drop off keys with our friend John so he can check in on our cat.

3. Pack my bags.

Seems simple enough right? Well this simple list of things for some reason came with a very annoying and swift kick in the ass. This is what happened while going through my list.

1. Allison gets swimsuit. Our car gets booted because I left the parking lot and got a drink from a place across the street.

2. Park, hop out of car, hand John my keys. Cop tickets me for being in a "no standing zone for less than a minute (The real kicker is if I hadn't gotten out of the car and given my friend a hug then the cop said he would have let it go).

3. I pack my bags and go to get our cooler out of the basement. Get locked out of the apartment, Allison is already sound asleep in bed.

I've always wanted to catch and cook my own food at some point in my life. I'm a bit of a wuss and would have trouble killing a rabbit or some other small animal but I don't think I'd have trouble with a fish.

Only problem with is that I suck at fishing.

Take a look at my new website purely for my prop/artsy stuff. Will hopefully keep me from constantly posting on my tumblr 😜 http://936props.wix.com/home

A warm day in Chicago is best spent on a frozen dog beach!

First Forge

Now that Christmas is officially over I can post my first attempt at forging! Every Christmas each member of my family has to make a gift from scratch for someone. This year I decided to be ambitious and make a knife for my dad. Here's some step by step photos. I'll upload the final ones soon :)

The world has changed. I see it in the water. I feel it in the Earth. I smell it in the air.
