FEELING CRAFTY TODAY

So yesterday my aunt turned to me and said, "You know, [name redacted], I've been thinking a lot about you lately." I said, quite eloquently, "Oh."

DOESN'T THAT SOUND ALARMING TO YOU, FLIST? I found it quite alarming. She is the gossipiest aunt ever, and I have the sneaking suspicion that when she says "thinking about you" she actually means "talking about you with my sister/mother/other relative." Of course all my other relatives are in Canada, and they already think I'm the weird girl who wears cartoon hats*, so I'm not really that bothered.

Speaking of dubious fashion choices! I made a leather bracelet thing today, it's awesome. And I know leather cuffs are at, like, entire toolbox levels of toolishness, BUT I JUST REALLY LOVE THEM. don't judge me ;___;



YOU ARE IMPRESSED, Y/Y/MFY? Once you look closely you realize the ~craftswomanship is at kindergarten level, because the leather strips are all fucked up because they were cut with scissors and I never learned how to cut straight. Alas.

*I didn't actually upload this pic, jsyk. But I totally own that hat.

That is the cutest hat ever!

I am definitely impressed! That is better than anything I would ever be able to make! I really can't cut in a straight line. It's impossible! So yes, you are awesome and it looks really good! :D

\o/ I loooove it, it's adorable. Sometimes when I wear it a few people look at me like ಠ_ಠ, but I can only assume they have no soul.

Why thank you! :D It's actually a little too big, haha. I probably should have measured it first. :D: But it was fun, so. :P

That hat is awesome. When people stare just say, 'Jealousy does not look good on you.'

What to say to dear old Aunty? Ah, yes. 'So that's why things have been going my way. You've been sending me positive thoughts! Oh, thank you so much Dear. *Old*. Aunty. (give a surprise hug at this point) I feel so much better. And just think, because of your wonderful positive thoughts about me, you will now have all this awesome good karma coming your way.'

Would she be buried under the sarcasm? Would she even get the sarcasm?

That leather band is cool.

omg, that is possibly the best response ever. YOU ARE A GENIUS. I'm going to be seeing her again soon and I'll totally keep that in mind for when she (inevitably) talks about how much she's been ~thinking of me. :D I am 99% sure the sarcasm would go wooosh over her head, lol.

ty, ty :D

I think the cuff bracelet looks awesome! And hey, if some of the strips are not exactly straight that just gives it personality~
