martha stewart has nothing on me

Although, I may check out her DIY section far too frequently

This weekend has been grand. I needed the rest, although I will beat myself over the head for it this week. It's going to be another tough one. That's how it goes.

I've been so productive this weekend.

A couple of months ago, I bought this cute little desk from a thrift store. The only problem was it was covered in stickers and crayon.



It wouldn't have done so well in my room. So, I went to homedepot and picked up some oops paint.

I painted my desk and it looked beautiful

Then I also bought a shelf to go above my desk, and it fell onto my desk and kind of biffed it up a bit.

I've been bitter at those shelves for a couple of months now. Also bitter than I didn't understand how to find studs in a wall. But enough was enough. I had to overcome my fear of this darn shelf. Becca and I took a short walk to homedepot and bought me some studs. I drilled some holes and now there is a shelf with only a couple of scars later. Yes, i did bleed in the process and have a nice bump on my nose, don't ask.





there's some minor stuff that i'll originally get around to doing but it's what i've got.

I also did laundry and baked some rosemary bread. Yummy.

Also this week I made some rad guacamole. Maybe even better than Lor and Erica's El Chico skills.

Other highlights of the week. Sayhitoyourmom [teenagehood dream to see them] and I did not hear let's talk about spaceships and David Bazan of Pedro the Lion. Also another favorite. His voice is so smooth. Detroit was packed.

Abolition of Man will change your life. Read it. Someday I will do a blog on itself someday.

It was good to see an old friend. Really good actually.

Other happenings of this week, I have had the strangest feelings this week. I could write out a story and never expect it to happen. Then everything I wrote began to come true. By chapter 3
the story shifted. Ten chapters later loose ends are connecting again. But those last ten chapters were only outlined notes to see where the characters could possibly reach to. Now, it's time to start writing again, will this happen too?
