So, the BFF and I love to go to antique stores. For many years now, we've had this fun thing, a slight competition where one attempts to find the ugliest and/or creepiest item in the store. Alas, I won today. What the heck even is this monstrosity? Those teeth, good god. Nightmare fuel.

not being Lego brand, it had some tiny issues. But overall, I'm really pleased. It had a color scheme from my favorite painting. I need a diff holder, but that will come later. Something rustic and stoneware, I think.

finally started that D&D pattern from Etsy. Not too hard, I think it'll be cute. Might back it with felt or make it into a dice tray.

I have a small blog where I review purchases and generally update my life, super simple. It's on a Mastodon-style thing, though, and it hasn't been working right for several weeks. Anyone know of a simple site to use with an easy editor? Free required. I just upload pics and write. I'll go back […]

horn progress - added beads to this side, drilled a hole through the other tip for a jump ring, deciding what to hang from it. Will be attaching flowers around the base of each. Really loving the personalization so far. #dnd #cosplay #tieflings gonna work on the tail today w/EVA foam. wish me luck.

If you park in a no parking zone so close to a car in a disabled spot that they can't get in to go home, you're definitely an asshole.

tis only a 1st coat (I also need to buy some burnt umber to do some shading) and there will eventually be some gold chain and dangles, but I've discovered the versatility of paintable foam clay. :) #d&D #dnd #tieflings

Next section is almost done. I oopsed on the 3rd line up, but just stretched it all the way across for consistency. I love how these patterns can do that. #embroidery #blackwork

SUPER CUTE! Tiefling horns that attach to your headset with velcro strips. I love them! ("gray silk" color on mine) Made by BeamTeam3D.com, they're also on Etsy. They'll be loads of fun for gaming sessions via discord/Roll20. #dnd #d&D #rpg #tieflings

Pink Pony Soft Serve in Albuquerque is da BOMB. woman-owned, makes their own ice cream with local dairy milk, real whipped cream, even the cherries are clearly not cheap maraschino ones. This was a total delight and an amazing rich treat. #icecream #albuquerque
