My mother used to grow and right when i started to smoking weed she stopped because she got a good job at the womans prison in hawaii. she used to give me 10 bucks a week to water the plants everyday, gawd she could grow some cript. i used to de-flower buds too, for ten bucks a time......

There is SO much wrong with that.

[Lady Maven]

Yeah.. there really is Owly.

I know you wouldn't want it, but I feel sorry for you anyway.

[owly]

i could see sympathy for or if it was crack or heroin, but it's just weed a soft drug but thanks tho. When i was going to school that was a long time ago, i went to Olamauna, kids that was in prison went there too we was schooled with them. Anyways there was ash trays built right into the desks, we could smoke pakalolo during breaks. i was in 5th grade and you could smoke cigs in class, that's sad........

edit/Don't blame my mom, she was raising 4 boys and two girls and she did her best to feed, keep a roof over r heads, and lights. i give her credit, She did what she had to so we never was in a position of wanting anything or being starved/starving to death. It's because of her that all my brothers and sisters are all doing well in life.......

edit2/well except for my brother Randy hard drugs is his er, it's a shame tho he has a beautiful mind......

[Lady Maven]

It isn't the pot. It is the message. It makes me sad as a mother is all.

I would have sold my body if I had had to to put food on the table, don't get me wrong, but I would not have had my son unwrap the condoms.

We all make our way the best way we know how, but it still makes me sad.

I collect music. Legally. I collect DVD's as well. Have about 3,000 cd's (give or take) and over 1,000 dvd's (not counting bootleg). It is kind of ridiculous that I pay for cable to be honest...but I love hockey and the indie and classic film channels, so it is worth it.

I used to do various forms of pottery. I can throw some decent pieces on a wheel, and know how to pour slip, set molds, clean greenware, glaze (would love to learn how to mix my own glazes and do aneal work with glass)...but man that is an expensive and expansive hobby, so I do not do it for now. If I had the bucks and the space, I could do it for a livng, but it is one of those cases where it truly takes money to make money. It would be a dream come true though!

So now I paint, mostly acrylic on paper. I have a 5' x 6' project I want to paint for a big empty wall in my bedroom and will have to pay for the canvas on frame to do it. I hope to one day learn to stretch/frame canvas for myself and then I wwant to attempt oils and watercolors. I draw well, and love to when I am inspired. I do calligraphy as it takes up little space, and have made some pretty cool things for friends and my Mom. I also make some beaded jewelry from time to time.

I know how to do screen printing too, but again, space is required, so not an option at present.

My favorite hobby of all, is sewing. As soon as I empty my storage and set up a studio in the garage (I used to have an extra bedroom dedicated to sewing and painting), I will go back to making art dolls. I used to make costumes (professionally) for the costume shop Maven and I used to work at. I also make some of my own clothes since I am so tall and it can be difficult to find clothes for tall women. It takes alot of room to sew though, so now I enjoy sewing in miniature for art dolls. Pretty cool hobby actually. I NEVER thought I would make dolls, but these are not the baby doll with curly hair types. My next one is a tattooed punk-er with thigh-high boots! Rawr! heehee

[Lady Maven]

LOL, yuppers, nothing baby doll about these at all. I usually am working out some issues with mine. Syl and I make the same sort of dolls, except mine tend to be gothic fairy types. They are pretty cool because you can use every other art form to make them from painting to sewing to collage, and whatever. My new ones have corsets I am making from papier mache.

[Lady Maven]

She's pretty hot too, Owly, so ya missed out.

I have a rule about new hobbies. They cannot cost me mre than 20 dollars to start. If I allowed myself to spend more my house would be full of way more crap than it is. I am addicted to find new art forms and crafts.

I table top RP twice a week with friends. its a nice social situation, the group has been together for many years now.

I video game also, which is mainly flirting with various mmo's, some xbox and usually i have host a multiplayer server of some sort ( currently its Minecraft! )

[Super_Sturm]

Outside of reading/watching the News, and soap box chatting with you all
I do play alot of CoD Black Ops, I find it amusing.

[Lady Maven]

I video game also, which is mainly flirting with various mmo's,

That is why I can't play those games any more. They seem like just an excuse for people to cheat ion their spouses. Is that fair? Hell no, loads of people don't play those games to cheat. Doesn't stop me from wanting to throw up every time I see one of those games advertised. But my medication is helping that. (no, I am not kidding, yes I really do have to take medication at this point for it)

I would not have even come back here again if I did not consider you all family.

[Teanos]

Well ok I lied, when I'm not working I actually play a couple games.

Just bought Battlefield Bad Company 2. Interesting game, I play with a coworker and his brother and we actually kick decent ass.

Oh, and I still occassionally play WoW still.
Lvl 82. I might hit 85 by end of the year. ;/

[Lady Maven]

Funny you should say level 80+ in WoW. Was a guy on our Reno CL offering to trade an 8gig iPhone for a level 80+ WoW character. I have NO idea if that is a good deal or not, since i spit on anything Apple AND WoW, lol.

[Teanos]

Iphone was the best thing I've bought in years.
there truely is an app for just about everything.
