The next two days are going to have me cross eyed from photography and editing.

I do realize it's telling on myself, naming my favorite material colorway Power, but you can't tell me the name doesn't fit. 😍

13. Fusion is damn expensive, but it's worth it and I have hit a point where using it is starting to feel natural to take an idea and get it into 3D space - it only took a year and a half.

Ate cheese and was playing bass guitar (badly) on the bed, and then Prince Charming texted, so I then spent the evening eating cheese, playing guitar, and discussing ducks and cats.

Oh I forgot about these.

These aren't even the worst or weirdest.

HAHAH THANK YOU. And that's enough game in my book but I've gotten stuff like this and been forced to stop and reconsider dating:
