Friday night, I was vending at the Holiday Baar Bazaar when I ran into Heather Fagan of Bettula, one of my crafty art friends. I met Heather at last year’s Holiday Baar Bazaar & we have been cool ever since.
Anyway, Heather makes very unique & very hot jewelry made from birch bark, which you cannot help but to love.
So last night we were talking about the recession etc when I spotted a birch cuff on her table that spoke to me. I told Heather how much I loved it. I put it on immediately & it was too much like right. It looked so good on me & she was feeling it also.
Before I knew it, she said take it as a gift.
I was like what???
I am not surprised that she offered it to me as a gift because she has a very giving personality & generous spirit. I just was like wow, for real, me, no ,yes, no, ok yes???
What a gift, a beautiful gift, a gift that was in time to put a positive spin on a week that had so many low points.
I teased & said that when I wear the cuff, I will turn into Wonder Man & fight off evil and repel bullets. We both laughed.
Later that evening, Claireta, another crafty art friend mind stopped by my table to kick it & to get a few bars of soap. After a rather funny conversation, I bagged up her soap & handed it to her. When she handed me her cash for the soap, I told her that her money was no good tonight & to enjoy the gift.
She thanked me with a giant warm hug.
For the rest of the night I wore my Wonder Man cuff, which attracted a lot of attention, which I directed to Heather. It was so cool having people dig it & my sexy wearing it.
After the night was over & I had a pocket full of Quench cash, I walked over to Heather, with my Wonder Man cuff. I thanked her again then handed her a 16oz body mousse & bar of soap. She was like, you do not have to & I was like yes I do, because I want you to be moist boo.
On another note, I found an original Orko (from He Man) figure at the Holiday Bar Bazaar from this cat that had had a bunch of cool 80′s toys. Orko was always my boy!
On another, another note, I tried “molecular gastronomy” at a party tonight. Very tasty & interesting cuisine option.
On another, another, another note, I went to see “The Day The World Stood Still“on iMax the other night. It was good, action was great but it was not a world rocker & certainly not worth the energy of me doing a full post on it. in short; Jaden Smith got on my last nerves, Keanu Reeves was just OK, Gort was the SHIT & favorite character in the movie.

You know – you’re so cool. When I grow up I want to be just like you.

Good for you for paying it forward. It’s that kind of niceness that makes the world a better place despite all the ridiculousness taking place these days.

Cool on all the artsy stuff and paying it forward. It’s hard to resist paying it forward once you get caught up in the vapors.
I haven’t seen the movie yet (and I think I’ll allow my image of it to remain untarnished by letting the book be enough for me), but that little Jaden Smith is getting a little too big for his britches. I’m totally not hating, especially because I used to love them all–Jada, Will, etc., but over the past few years the whole family (via their individual personalities) has been making me want to puke.
