I'm starting a "homemade paper prop" week and it took me a while to figure out how to mix it in with a few of today's themes so I hope it counts. I did try to do the whole "stuff on lips" for TRP with coffee grounds but it looked like I was wearing bad lipstick and I ended up with coffee up my nose (how's that for a buzz?)
Today's Random Fact: If you're a fan of the TV show friends (like me!) you may remember an episode where they each make a list of celebritiy "freebies" that they can sleep with. A few months after Scott and I made our lists I met one on mine...bet you'll never guess who it was....

Um...yeah....I think I'm obsessed with this cardboard E.T. After I finished painting him, I stood him up and laughed for a good 10 minutes...... he does have little feet but I kind of cropped them out because they didn't turn out too good in th shot.
So I think for my paper props, I might just take a photo on Sunday with all of them and if you want one you can claim it, I'm not sure if E.T. will be included or not...I think I love him just a bit too much to let him go....
Today's Random Fact: I used to be really scared of E.T., it was the first movie I remember being really scared of, and going to Universal Studios and being forced to go on the ride certainly didn't help, but..as you can see, we're cool now.

For TRP: What would my last seconds be before the Apocolypse? Well like any true Flickr addict, I'd be trying to take a picture of course!!
So this is the end of paper-prop week and holy jeepers was it fun and challenging all at once. I think I'll be finding little pieces of cardboard all over the house for months to come. I'm glad that you enjoyed the props so much,that............you can have them.
Yup, If you want it...just post a note or leave a comment and I will gladly mail it your way! Now, the E.T. and Wall-E are a bit too big to mail so I made up some smaller (equally cool) renditions that I can send you instead. There are couple rules though:
1. One per person
2. You gotta use the prop in one of your shots!
Also, I just wanted to say a big big thank you to all of the amazing copy-cat shots that you guys did yesterday, I was totally suprised and honored and flattered beyond belief. It really means a lot to me that you all appreciate my stuff and enjoy it so much :)
Random Fact: I secretly want to do another paper prop week....but not yet.....

Just trying to enjoy a little glimpse of my dream sunday before having to go back to work. I would love to just sit and read all day but sadly life always comes around and knocks down the tower.
TRF: I slept for almost 12 hours last night. I was so tired that I just fell into bed at 8:30 and woke up at 7:00.....crazy!

Thanks so much for all your encouraging and supportive words yesterday, I didn't really realize that I starting to get into a funk and then all of a sudden it just sort of hit.
This week people at work starting getting lay-off notices which has brought morale down quite substantially. My contract expires at the end of June and I have nothing lined up as of right now which is starting to nag at the back of my head but I'm trying to stay as positive as possible that things will work out.
Today's Random Fact: I'm off to make some Ginger-Carrot soup for tomorrow's staff luncheon :)
