Well my metal project (2 pairs of piercings) was a bust. Spent three hours working on them last night (even accidentally cut my finger with a saw Thursday night), yet when critique time rolled around I, again, was one of the few that didn’t get any beans (what each person uses to show whose project they liked the best). I don’t get it … I work just as hard as everyone else, but then have nothing to show for it in the end *sigh* Maybe the last project (a ring) will be different.

Read The Breeze today and saw all these cool places advertised around Harrisonburg and neighboring towns that I’d love to go to, except can’t, because doing certain things alone isn’t any fun. Like hiking on Skyline Drive and taking pictures of the fall foliage or pumpkin/apple picking at a family farm that also has a corn maze, hay rides, etc. Brian should come here for once next weekend.
