BUT, on the off-chance that there is a new reader out there, I shall tell you anyway!
1. I sleep...a lot...too much.
2. I watch movies online. Illegally. Television shows too. Although, less illegally.
3. I cook! (Something I rarely do in the States)
4. I read books and write in my scrapbook and do things that involve reading and/or writing. (Like this blog, for instance!)
5. I help my loving, darling man with his work--as he is swamped and nearing the end of his MFA degree. I think I deserve "best woman evah" award for this, but I settle for him buying me cider.
So, #5 leads me to how I spent the day today! Mark is currently exploring new ways to dispense his poetry to the masses. He currently has two blogs on which he posts his poetry and also some fun videos (like the one in my last post). He also is exploring ways non-interweb to get his work out there. This is where I come in. I am assisting in creating tools for mass communication!!! (Going on my resume? Probably.)
Today I made posters for Mark's upcoming busking adventures. Here they are:
AND
And yes, I'm aware I'm killer at block-lettering.
I also created stencils so that when Mark and I graffiti (if anyone asks, you know nothing) in bathroom stalls and elsewhere, he can have a logo of sorts. I feel pretty awesome about how this turned out, considering it's the first stencil I've ever made.

Proof:
I started making more stencils but quickly realized I need a better Exact-O knife (or, more accurately, AN Exact-O knife since Mark's Swiss Army knife isn't the best tool for the job).
I'm happy that I've started doing something creative and productive and I hope that this stenciling business will lead to more intricate designs, and perhaps a more serious career in "public" art.
Again, your lips better be sealed.
