It wasn't really that great a date. I don't know about this girl, she is goofy and pretty and tall though.
I worked on making bowls and things all day today. Made a small one out of juniper cedar- it smelled so so so so mmmmmmmmmmmm good when I was making it. I made a big one out of spalted oak, and a giant one out of.. plum. Yes, plum, I got the mother of all plum trees from a small orchard planted 110 years ago. It died a year ago, and the owner let me have it. 2 feet wide trunk at the base-- holy crap- that is one hell of a plum tree.
I tried well, I tried something stupid- is what really happened, and broke a tool on that bowl- the tool snapped, the metal part flew back hit my hand and made a big cut, bounced off my hand and hit me in the face- hooray face shield!-- the handle flew across the room. I have a nice big cut in the center of my hand now-- like Ive been crucified--
Watched yesterday's Daily Show (john stewart), he interviewed Ron Paul, whom I had never really heard speak on what he believed before. Ummm correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounded like he wants government to return to the way it was in 1820. With a weak federal bank, other banks being semi independent. That system resulted in all the banks printing their own currencies, sure, let's do that~
