Hi friends! I remembered I had some photos on my iPhone machine so I have, as they say, more content for you! Best! Day!

I bet when you see this you are like “oh it’s like fall all over again” except actually those yellow bits are FLOWERS, tree flowers, I don’t know what kind but I do know it means SPRING IS COMING! Yesssssssssssssss!

Oh by the way, Maine is secret into cars and I am not secret into Volvos. Every time I see a car I like, it is either a Volvo or a Mercedes that looks like a Volvo. I submit the following evidence:

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

One day when I am moderately not in all the debt I will buy a sweet Volvo and paint it either pink or purple or maybe green and the inside will be zebra style and I shall call it the Tamsmobile.

This is if me and Maine were cakes.

By the way, one day two weeks ago I went for brunch with Val and Sean and we were served by a girl I used to really really despise. It was only somewhat awkward. I don’t even care now, but man. It was funny because we were waiting for a table for like forever, and I noticed her and thought “oh that looks like that girl” but then I’m like, no, she can’t be working here? So then I went on with my life and we finally got seated and she comes over to ask what we want and I look up and she goes “Oh, hi, by the way” and I’m like HOLY WHAT THE??? on the inside. But yeah overall it was not that big a deal, just weird. I had the tofu scramble. I hope it had 0% spit in it. This only means something to a small percentage of you reading this.

By the way I made a thing out of tourist nuts from Hawaii and some wax. I also said some awkward things about BS that I did not entirely mean. But those of you who have done the art school thing will probably know what I am talking about… where sometimes you do the whole conceptual dance and make up shit when really you actually just made a thing and feel the need to justify it with DEEPER! MEANING! but really sometimes a thing is just a thing.

Anyway I just want to clarify that I do like art and I do like the conceptual parts but sometimes I think it also goes over the top like that scene in Ghost World with the tampon in the tea cup. Or Mirror Father Mirror. (By the way, I have been compared to Enid on more than one occasion. I guess Tremaine is my Seymour, except I am not going to be hella rude and leave him by getting on a bus to nowhere one day. Also he does not have psoriasis.)

A robot in America made this for me. It is pretty delightful.

We are rug weaving now. These are my samples. They are also delightful.

The food at the cafeteria? She is not delightful.

Actually, I wish. I drank that the other night. After weaving class. I think I deserved it. Weaving is hard work, actually. We are making rug samples. I want to buy an old timey doll house and turn it into Tams’ Dream House and make tiny rugs for it. I even found a good one on craigslist but it is in Surrey and I think I am too lazy for Surrey. We’ll see. I should probably learn how to drive one of these days. It would make living the dream a heck of a lot easier.

I watched this the other day. It was super interesting. We are learning about the Inca people in school right now, which is not the same thing, but is similarish enough that I sort of felt like I was being responsible by watching this instead of doing homework.

By the way, I saw a gigantic billboard the other day that says Jesus is coming in May and it annoyed the crap out of me and made me wish I had enough money to buy a billboard that said “YOU PEOPLE ARE ALL CRAZY”. I am offensive. Jesus is not coming back, and if he is, I think we have a lot more to worry about, like how to survive a zombie apocalypse. Luckily I have taken the Facebook test and it says I will definitely survive so you probably want to join up with me. Just sayin.

I am now going to have anxiety for 25 minutes before I have to leave for work. Have a good day! Please do not call me to yell about bandwidth limits. xoxox

Can we talk for a moment about how rad this guy is? I discovered his quilts a while ago and I am super thrilled about this little etsy video. Love love love.
