A bit of my weekend. (In pictures!)

My boyfriend and I were picking up some money to make some purchases for the afternoon when we ran into our friends near the 7-11. (My main store in life, just a cigarette's walk away.) They were going to Maumee Bay State Park to film some stuff. So we told them to wait, smoked at our house and then we were on our way! Maumee Bay State Park isn't that far away, but of course we got lost and ended up driving all the way to Port Clinton with the intention of riding the ferry to Put-In-Bay, but it was iced in so we stayed on the mainland. We didn't leave the car much except to take a few pictures. It being January, you could imagine just how exciting the landscape was:


It was extremely cold and windy. On the way back we found Maumee Bay State Park, after many hours of driving:

Yet, again...it was a pretty exciting trip. We came home and then later on played some sort of drinking version of Trivial Pursuit at a friends house.

Yesterday, Ryan had to work all day. Being unemployed and broke
(I did have a job interview on Friday, though!), I have to find activities to keep myself occupied. (Besides cleaning, and I clean the whole house on a daily basis.) So I did what anyone would do, I broke out the crafts. I have no patience nor the motivation to paint real things because that would take too long...so I made doodle-like things. Here are my experiments with watercolors:


Later on my roommate and her friend came over to get ready for a White Trash Party. Since I was feeling artsy, I gave them some pretty nice tattoos, complete with a tramp stamp (that says, "Black Hole Sun," I don't know why, she requested it, Haha.) Here are their outfits and the tattoo's I made:


Later on we went to Bowling Green to hang out with some friends. Yes, exciting weekend, I know, but activities are limited when it's so cold. And I'm broke. Haha.

Hope you all had a good weekend!

  1. also, you really remind me a lot of me at 22. it's nice to know that things don't really change much and people are still having fun doing what i did to have fun at that time in my life.

    not that i'm super old, but the past 10 years have just flown past, and even though i don't feel like much has changed, it has.

    time is crazy stuff.

  4. You are an arteest! Wow a nurse too, very smart. And here in Canada so sought after and well paid! I am sure that you will find something soon.

    What a wonderful way to volunteer! I would love to see some "real painting" if this is what just doodling is!
