Sup?

Well, hello.  I haven't updated in a while, so here are two new things to share in the life of me.
Thing #1: I got the chance to 3d print something that I modeled myself!  I've always wanted to do this (with that post-apocalyptic girl character that I modeled back in junior year), but I decided to go small(er) and simple(r) to begin with.  Hence, I modeled a small crock and decided to send the printed result to my mom for mother's day.  I ended up printing two versions of the crock: a low res version without support material and a medium res version with support material.  In hindsight, it would have been better to split the model in half and print each piece separately (since the printer had trouble with the mouth overhang), but psshhh.. it's not like I'm printing a gun with functional parts.  It's a crock, dude.

Thing #2: I was tired of not being able to see my watch under my coat sleeve / arm warmer when riding my bike to work, so I got this little ring-watch to quell the compulsion I have to check my watch every 10 seconds to see whether or not I'll be late to work.  Even though I'm not required to show up at a specific time... even though I'm too lazy to bike any faster, even when I can see that I'm running late.  I JUST WANT TO SEE THE TIME OKAY?!?!
As you can see, I am engaged to TIME ITSELF.
And that is all for now.
