It's around 9pm on the first Saturday in June. I've been in Greenville since last night, and I've done nothing but relax. Went out and spent a few hours at Mr. K's this morning (by myself). There was some great stuff to be found! I bought a set of radio drama CDs from the Golden Era of radio. Can't wait to listen to them.

I'm returning at 2:00AM after dinner and a movie. We rented Black Swan. That was not what I expected at all. Granted, I only wanted to borrow the movie because there was so much hype surrounding it for a while. Had absolutely no idea what it was about beyond the synopsis on the back of the DVD case. It was a really good movie, but it left a lot of things up for interpretation.
I've decided to take all the frustration I'm feeling with myself and channel it into something that might be kind if useful. Maybe I really just need a new hobby to think about. I know by doing multiple things at once, I can never perfect anything, but maybe that's ok. The only constant is my desire to get better in Adobe Creative Suite. Yet, slugging through tutorials seems rather unappealing.
I have to re-cycle through a series of things or else I get bored. There are a variety of things that will never seriously fall back into the cycle, but maybe I will revisit them from time to time. Or...maybe I just need to revisit the things I did when I was younger, more creative, and ambitious.
Either way, I've decided to take up sewing again. So, I got my very own sewing machine today. I've used my mom's all my life, then I moved and discovered that having a sewing machine around is actually very handy. I've recently had to do all my alterations and quick fixes by hand. A machine will at least make fixing the hem on my pants easier and cleaner. Plus, this is my sewing machine. It's similar to my mom's but with a few new features that I'm really excited about exploring them. Time to put that scrap material sitting in my drawer to use.
Bought a new pattern on a whim. It'll be fun!
