I was invited to an art night at The Other Barn last night. You bring whatever art you do, and you sit and work on it for a couple of hours and chat with everyone. How fun is that?
I brought my crochet to work on. Others were doing cross stitch, fabric painting, collage, japanese braiding, disco trophy making, and soapstone molds.
Being the new girl, and not quite yet having the hang of stitching while carrying on a conversation, I was amused to listen to the various discussions. Topics included Ireland, colleges, drugs (cocaine, heroin, and laudenum, specifically, all of which used to be legal, and one of which Bayer used to manufacture before they moved on to aspirin), spray paint and how not to use it indoors, food, archeological digs, collecting, grave robbing, and phobias (clowns and people in bird costumes, specifically).
I got quite a few rounds added on to my earthy colored blanket, and it was a great way to spend a Thursday evening.

Hey Cate! Just came upon your post. It was great to have you there at Art Night. It's so funny to hear your recollection of the topics of discussion. Glad you had a good time and looking forward to "arting" with you again.
Oh yeah, here's the art night website if anyone wants more info - http://omartnight.socializr.com. Cate you'll note that I wrote some buzz about the art night that you attended, including a bit about you.
