There is this person who has long, curly, grey hair put into a ponytail. This person wears glasses to read the many knowledgeable books in this person’s library and uses them to hide their eyes from the rest of the world. Has a little bit of facial hair, and random spots of acne cover the face. This person is old and their tattoo has seen a lot of bar fights, stand up comedians, and church services. They’re super skinny, has pierced ears, and has lipstick on their lips. Every day this person screams something like “OH BOY!” and means it. This person has a place for everything, yet always forgets to set an alarm clock.

 

 

There exists this person who sports a lengthy, wound up, ponytail that looks like a stormy cloud. People call the poor soul Four Eyes and Zit Face, so this person wears glasses to read the many knowledgeable books in this person’s library and uses them to hide their eyes from the rest of the world. Has a little bit of facial hair, and random spots of acne cover the face. This person is old and their tattoo has seen a lot of bar fights, stand up comedians, and church services. They’re super skinny, has pierced ears, and has lipstick on their lips. Every day this person screams something like “OH BOY!” and means it. This person has a place for everything, yet always forgets to set an alarm clock.

Play-Doh.
the stuff of legends for a three year old. The matter of pure creation. You could make anything you wanted. you could make it into a ball. or a snake. But you would have to put it back into the box after you played with it because if left out it would turn into hard play-doh. it would dry up and it wouldn't be any fun any more. and it tastes bad. it isn't cookie dough. edible play-doh would be revolutionary. i can't imagine the repercussions. This is so easy to write about than the baby shoe one. a good thing to note to the world is that it's NON-TOXIC! that's a plus+. and water can be added to restore softness. That's good to know. if i had some water now, i would pour it onto the play-doh i have here and play with it. I would literally stop writing what Im writing and move on to greater and better things. Play-doh could be that greater andbetter thing. This play-doh is pink. and it's got things that look like crystalized stuff growing.

Things in my possession.
clothes that i wore to bed las night. I didn't have enough time to change because of the snow. I just put clothes over them. snow boots because it snowed. today. keys. wallet. cell phone. telephone. backpack. by listing offthe things that are in my possession at this very second, I am also listing off all the things that are not in my possession. I do have my car in the parking  lot.
The long forgotten black plastic baby slipper. it had no sister. just one. alone. It's surprisingly clean like it was never worn. It kind of makes you think about the story behind the baby shoe. It reminds me of a story in an english class. a short story. the shortest story ever written.

It goes like this...

Baby shoes.

For sale.

Never worn.

There are so many possibilities to the story. and it kind of makes me sad. because here is a perfectly shaped baby shoe in all it's black sunday baby shoeness.

Graphic Design

Graphic design. do I want to do it from here on out.? I dont know. I got into it in high school by accident. really enjoyed it in newspaper. the best class I ever had. it was fun. It's creative. I try to make things look cool. and that is all it is. I'm not bad at it. I can come up with stuff. I designed a shirt design for work and everyone's got giggle s about it. but I can't draw the best. I mean, give me enough time to erase quite a bit and eventually I can draw what I wanted. But all of it is in front of a commputer all day. and I don't think life is all about that. I think I could do something that requires real work work work work work workwork. graphic design just seems like workwork that i could do for free. but it takes hours for me to make something to look the way I envision it. Could graphic design take to the places that I want to go? Can it allow me to do the things that I want to do? or is it a dead end kind of thing and is screaming don't waste your time. The mind map today looks kind of cool. It is kindof like outer space. It has different kinds of words in different shapes and sizes. graphics. And i don't really want to illustrate hardcore. I'm not good.
