Blog Everyday April (BEDA) #1

I ought start with an introductory blog...
but I shan't.

I have 24 minutes to get this posted before I've already missed a day in Blog Everyday April.

In short, today was unsuccessful. My puppet's painted head looked like what would happen if Doctor Manhattan and a Goblin were to have fruitful intercourse. I painted his eyes white and as it was drying, a droplet of white paint ran down his cheekbone and Father Time is now permanently crying.

I had an awful stomach-ache for a large portion of the day because I thoughtlessly ingested raw Spaghetti-O's (courtesy of Chris) on a nearly empty stomach.

My dad and I spent four hours on giving Father Time an hourglass for a body, with actual sand. But the sand had to be dried and refined, and because we were working with 2-liter plastic coke bottles and we neglected to account for sand's propensity for static cling, the entire effect ended up being obscured by the sand being stuck to the sides of the hourglass, making it worthless.
I still need to make sleeves, hands, and controls for my puppet, and I need to fill the massive opening in its head.

Also by puppet's clock wheels fell-off, and I did not do my math homework (which I fail to comprehend).

That is all, hopefully further entries will be less whiny, though from the looks of what must be done within the next few weeks, it's not likely.
