Now I remember

Don't be too surprised if the blog goes blank. It just hasn't been striking me as necessary any more...maybe Facebook (with the simple 144-character status updates) is fulfilling my need to announce my existence to the world.

Meanwhile, here is this week's useless entry.

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I'd been stringing beads like mad. I have made a couple of Christmas presents, but mostly I'm not satisfied enough with my skills to give away what I'm making. And with this gruesome scar on my throat right now, I'm not wearing necklaces. (Actually I'm pleased with the scar, but not enough to draw attention to it.)

Yesterday I made a bracelet: turquoise, coral, and silver, with what I thought was the best bracelet clasp ever, a rare earth magnet. I finished it up about a half an hour before the hockey game, my mom admired my work on the Metro downtown, and when I went to bed last night, I realized it was gone.

The beads I used were fairly inexpensive. The clasp was probably the most expensive component, and apparently the magnet wasn't as good as I thought. It isn't like I spent hours and hours sweating over the design, but I'm still a little bummed.

It just struck me, as I made my fifth futile search of the house hoping it would reappear, that this is why I don't wear jewelry...it doesn't stay attached to me.

I hope whoever finds it likes it, anyway.
