Day 90: 3 Months Down

Today marks three months of Making very day. To commemorate this important occasion, I've made some crappy paper things while drinking Blime and watching Tropic Thunder.

Pencil box:



Fry box:



Little sliding box thing:

Day 89: Return of Doodle

I hadn't done one of these in a while, so here's one with three lumpy and misshapen raindrops.



Or they can be teardrops if you're emo.

Day 88: Back to the Real World

Today I spent pretty much the whole day doing an assignment for grad school. Well, all day until I had to go to work. And now that I'm home from work, I'd like to go to bed so I'm not a zombie tomorrow, so my Make for today is the database I created (books on my bookshelf) and paper I wrote about it.

Here's a picture of a few database records:



And here's a picture of the beginning of the paper:



It's not fun or even remotely interesting, but it's what I made today. Besides, I'm not a clown here to entertain you.

Day 87: Even Less Photogenic Than Usual

I'll be glad when my laptop gets back from the hospital, because I'll be able to make things in Photoshop again. For now, I have to resort to iPhone apps. You can probably figure out the name of the app if you look carefully for the subtle watermark.

Day 83: Happy Birthday to Me

Today I spent my birthday shopping for goodies and filling my apartment with them. And eating. And drinking.

Here's my newly framed Happy Bunny art from Mat.



Close-up of the little devil duckie-candle thing going on there:



Here's my super awesome Dread Pirate Roberts sword (also from Mat).

And my coat rack, plus fancy Kuromi key.



Shower caddy, named Franck Junior.



Storage over the toilet. Don't tug too hard on the cupboard door, or you might end up with storage all over you. Many I'll need to anchor it to the wall.



Oh, and there was a slight accident in my bathroom...



And then my mommy made me a birthday cake out of brownies. Yum!



And then more unpacking, with assistance from my housewarming gift from Andrea.



Delicious in my potato head glasses.



Thank you to my family and friends for making this a wonderful birthday. =)

Day 81: My Oven Works

Today I cranked up the oven and made my first dinner in my new apartment.



It's a chicken pot pie. And it was delicious.

Day 80: Moderately Lame Obligatory Make

After a weekend of packing and moving and assembling and unpacking and a day of working two jobs and commuting over 100 miles, I have come to the conclusion that this is all I can make today.



It's a little favor box printed off a website. It's not much, but it's better than sharing the humongous grocery list I've been making.

Here are more pics, so it seems like this is more interesting than it is.

Day 79: Moving Day

Today I made many trips up and down stairs, up and down elevators, across town in a U-Haul truck, and to the dumpster. In addition, I made my bed.



The picture's in bad lighting, and I need new bedding and a whole lot of decorating, but it's better than sleeping on the floor in a sleeping bag. Home!

Day 78: A Belated Key Day Homage to Keys

Here's what I made for yesterday and tried to post was was denied because of my innate ability to destroy laptops merely by touching them. So Happy Belated Key Day to me!

Once again, all images are rudely stolen from all over the place. 

Day 77: Emergency Key Day Replacement Post

I have something made for Key Day, but my loaner laptop is now doing a great impersonation of my real laptop, so here's the backup plan.
