Nice! I went as a sexy viking once. I had a braided, crocheted beard, a helmet and corset.
Tony Stark created likeability with a box of scraps in a cave!
I think you mean round child.
He's a joke, he's a ham, his last name's Amsterdam, that's a Morey.
It's a feature, not a bug.
Cake by the Ocean - I don't know what I thought that line was, but I never realized he mentioned Diddy, and I have no idea who Naomi is.
Mine too.
I'm I'm the middle of a 30 day challenge to eat a fermented food every day. Doing pretty good so far.
Good for you on the soda! It's really one of the worst things you can consume, even the sugar free. I was blessed with a distaste for carbonation from birth, but I have plenty of other vices.
If there's two things I know about white people, it's that they love Rachel Ray, and they're terrified of curses.
Ink on paper.
Inspired by Kevin Wilson's novel, Now Is Not the Time to Panic. About two teens in the 90s who are into art and poetry, that create a poster with a cryptic phrase on it. They post copies of it around town anonymously as an artistic statement, and it becomes viral, but some people see it as a menacing statement by Satan worshippers and things get out of hand. In lieu of posting around town, I posted it on my wall. And I am not an edgy teen, so I forewent the splash of my own blood on the poster.
I'm getting very behind on these thanks to Inktober. I've got another 3 books to do.
Is incentivates a word? I better check my dictionotomy.
My mom was just saying 2 days ago as we walked down our street, she doesn't understand why so many people come home in the evening and just sit in their cars. Like, you're home. Go in your home. We could come up with plenty of scenarios for people to do it once in a while, but for so many it's like a ritual.

Inspired by David Brin's novel The Postman.
Solidly middle-of-the-road post-apocalyptic story. Better than the movie.
I picked this up at ART Burger Sushi Bar at Myrtle Beach. Linda Weatherspoon has tons of paintings available there at really reasonable prices. Also the food was reasonably priced and delicious and the service was great.
Acryllic and ink on paper.
Inspired by Fiona Davis' novel The Masterpiece.
The book follows two timelines:
1929 A woman teaches art at a time when women aren't respected, and Picasso is taking America by storm.
1975 Another woman is dealing with shame and trauma involving a divorce and surprise mastectomy. She finds comfort and inspiration in a painting that turns out to be by the first woman.
So obviously I did this in a Picasso style. After making the sketch, it felt like filling in a coloring book, which some people find meditative, but I just find tedious. I spent way too much time filling in a patterned background but it made the image too noisy, so I covered it with semi-transparent paint. I kind of like the result. I didn't want to outline in paint, so I cheated and used pen.
Acryllic on Canvas.
My brother's birthday gift, based on Bambi Thug's Eurovision performance of Doomsday Blue.
Made for the 52weeksofbaking Regional Favorites challenge.
Acryllic on paper. Inspired by Sonia Purnell's A Woman of No Importance. I normally only paint based on fiction, but after reading about Virginia Hall, real World War II spy, I wanted to do her portrait.
I tried to do it in the style of this video. I don't know if they thinned out their paint or just have transparent paint, but I immediately covered over my sketch with paint too dark and gave up following along. I still like the way it came out.
Acryllic on paper. Inspired by Scott Smith's The Ruins. I tried doing this abstract botanical style but it didn't work out for me. I used so much paint on this stupid thing.
And didn't even like the book. I think it's been too highly praised online. If you go into it expecting a B movie of a book instead of a literary masterpiece, you'll have a better time.
Mixed media on paper.
This was inspired by SJ Watson's novel Before I Go to Sleep.
In brief: Christine suffered a head injury 20-ish years ago and she's had amnesia ever since. Every day she wakes up remembering nothing from her adult life. Recently, she's begun journaling to help herself build a life, and has discovered multiple mysteries. I enjoyed it, found it suspenseful even when I predicted the ending.
I will, thank you.
