Silkscreening

I’ve been looking on the internet for a decent guide to silkscreening for what seems like years now, and I found one via underachievers.com yesterday.

Yay! One more thing to put on my List of Things I Want to Do, But Never Get Around to Doing.

So there I am watching Michael Jackson last night… did anyone see this? My favorite part was when he was trying to feed his child, Blanket while shaking like a crackhead working the paint mixer at Wal-Mart.

The world may need love, Michael, but you need a psychiatrist!

Vincent: 4 : : Wal-Mart: 0

Mission successful.

I shouldn’t admit this part, but before I returned the camera I realised that there was nothing wrong with the camera itself. When I dropped it on the floor, it must have gotten thrown into macro mode by accident. The camera was focusing one inch from the lens, and not on the subjects I was trying to capture, so of course the pictures would be blurry. Then again, the little “macro” light was not lit, so I guess it broke in the fall. Regardless, I returned the camera and got a brand spanking new one in it’s place. I may just see how many times I can do this. Will I have bad exchange-karma? Like I’ll return a defective TV one day and they’ll be like, “I’m sorry sir, we show in our records that you returned a $40 digital camera 73 times from 2002 to 2004. That exceeds our lifetime returns limit.”

Be on the look out for some pictures of Lydia – who is finally making herself at home. I’ve actually seen her running around the house during the DAY; sunlight and and everything.

Between two jobs and school, I just want to go home and collapse after I get home from the Hospital, but I have to do homework or read or something so I can get out the door in time to make it to class. Whine whine whine.

R.I.P. Camera #3

Ok… should I return this one as well? It fell off the bed (only about two feet) and onto the floor. Now, all the pictures are super-blurry. I’m pretty confident that Wal-Mart will accept it, given their track record with this camera, but even I’d start to feel a bit ashamed of myself if I were to return it again. After the toilet incident, is there any turning back?

What do you think?

I Love Wal-Mart

Just in case you were wondering: It is possible to return a digial camera to Wal-Mart after you accidentally drop it into a Irish Pub toilet while in a drunken stupor. No questions were asked.
