Oh my poor baby!

I meant my boyfriend, by the way. Hahaha. There isn't an infant in the house... although my cat is about the size of one. ^_^

Anyways work was yet again not busy. They kicked me outta there by 2:30 pm. I was given a choice to stay until 5 or to go home early and I opted early because I thought I can bring a burger home to my sick hunnybunny. I ran into Michaels to check out the sale on artist pads. I have enough sketching paper (which they had a lot of) but I am definitely running out of acrylic paper. Unfortunately, the one brand I want (Canson) wasn't on sale. What they did had no canvas-y texture to it. Another pad had half the amount of paper in the Canson pad and about twice the price (even with my coupon) so I said no way. I ended up heading towards the canvas racks and picked up 2-pack 11x14s. I usually get them at Big Lots for about $3 each but 40% of $8 for the 2-pack = $2.40 each. SCORE! Then I got myself an aluminum water-bottle for $1.50... It's sooo cute. I get free soda at work and I am hoping this water-bottle's gonna stop me from drinking soda.  I sorta made a promise to myself to go on a diet with one of my coworkers (he's staying away from carbs, I am staying away from soda ^_^) and I hope the water-bottle idea will inspire me.

After Michaels, I headed towards the library and picked up 11 books on art. I picked up books on Matisse, Pollock, Expressionism, Impressionism and Surrealism just to name a few. And DVDs too!

When I got home, my boyfriend had his burger and he tells me he has a homeowners meeting that he had forgotten to tell me *SIGH* While he ate, I read about and wrote down notes on Surrealism and its founders. Pretty neat stuff ^_^
