day three.
3.5 hours, oil paint
Did some more painting at Eugenia & Hubert’s house before Thanksgiving dinner, just in case I needed help from art goddess, Eugenia Tai. Kimhak also needed me there early for portrait practice anyways. (Here’s what he sent me so far if you were wondering: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thehak/6407506369/in/photostream - look at the rest of his flickr if you have time) After getting paint everywhere I decided to ditch my original plan of driving to my boyfriend’s family dinner at a restaurant and went to my huge, huge, huge Thanksgiving dinner with all my family instead. The scrumptious turkey in the oven convinced me. But..
OH MY EFFING GOD.
I GOT FOOD POISONING FROM THANKSGIVING.
Who the hell gets food poisoning from Thanksgiving? Er.. more accurately the yam I ate the hour before Thanksgiving Dinner. I ended up ruining my parent’s mini roadtrip to Black Friday at Gilroy Outlets and spent the next 24 hours a miserable, weak, gigantic baby. I was at the lowest point this year - I had to have my daddy feed me because my muscles were too sore from the puking and diarrhea. The worst part? I did absolutely no shopping. NO. SHOPPING. Mack even came to my house at midnight - intending to go to Gilroy with us - and had to take care of me instead. He slept on the sofa next to me and made me porridge when he woke up (of course, he had to feed me too). And spent the whole day sleeping and doing nothing with my sickly self. So I’m thankful for the companionship. I’m thankful for dede too; he got me my garbage can and tissues.
Sigh, I reckon I will have to wait another year for a family Black Friday adventure.
Side note…Why are my art gifts better than my projects for my art classes?
