Me @ a professor this week: I can’t believe I’m saying this but I think I enjoy agricultural histories??
Them: I know! It’s embarrassing but they’re so interesting!

Anyone who works in *show biz* like theatre or film… what’s a good gift for a lighting director who mostly works at a ballet?

@CurlworksKigus I like to use mine to warm up or keep my hand skills sharp so I’ll do like a whole page of circles or lines for practice.
Other things I’ll do is practice new ideas or challenge myself to only draw in sharpie or pen to work on creative problem solving and confidence.

@Shontl2 Thank you I’m so excited!

[SAJ @ Grad School @FauxYellow]

Treated myself to a pen I’ve wanted for a while in celebration of being accepted to grad school and I’m enjoying it immensely.

@Shontl2 I’m doing my MA in history! Focusing on tattooing and embroidery as objects of personal narrative. And moving to Arkansas to be closer to my partner! Thank you!!
