best thing that could've happened was my tv went out...
i was going to resign myself to another mindless night in front of the boob tube.
but it's defective. and i gave up trying to fix it.
instead, i got out my supplies, turned up the music, poured myself a glass of wine, and got to work.
i used my hands.
tearing paper,
creating rough edges.
creating something with my own two hands.
creating many things with just two hands.
glue on my fingers and a smile on my face i looked at the mess i've made...
the work was complete and i was completely elated.
then i pulled out my camera...
i just got to do two of my favorite things all because my tv went out.
and i enjoyed every minute of it.
i think i'll cancel my cable and maybe even my cell phone.
how much i could accomplish if all i was left to was my own devices!
