Who wants her own pottery wheel? I do, that's who. I love the ceramics studio I joined but it's a good 30-45 mins away and I just can't get out of the house that often. I want to be working on things several times a week and that's not something I can do at Mudfire. After Christmas I'm gonna buy myself a wheel and set it up in the garage. I figure I'll need about $1800 for a decent set up (nice wheel, shelving, the timming cheater thingie and other odds and ends). It'll make trimming my stuff easier too because I won't have to worry about things being too wet or dry over my weekend trips. Then I can use Mudfire for firing, glazing and lessons on new things.

I was throwing together a playlist of "Christian music that I used to listen to that doesn't suck so much" on Spotify, just songs that I still occasionally like to listen to and upon looking up The Choir noticed that they had a short bio typed up that in part said "Atmospheric alternative rock bands like Cocteau Twins and My Bloody Valentine influenced this alternative-Christian rock group."

What? Their musical inspiration didn't spring straight from God?! Shocking. Of course I'd never heard OF either of these bands when I got into The Choir much less listened to them because no, we needed our art recycled and made 'safe'. Heaven forbid we get any dangerous thoughts or ideas.

Wonder if Spotify has any D.A. hrm....
