to the right of the food is a 'embroider person. she programs her singer and it stiches names on assorted stuff. ok, that is lame. next to her a scrapbooking table. ahh, sheeple fodder. then a 'jeweler'/beader. not very interesting stuff a bit in front of me and another jeweler next to her. all irish. nice but lame. on the other side i am looking at 'gift bags' with candy and knick knacks inside. cheap. sigh. next to that, in my left vision-oh lovely. i shall call it disco bamboo. he basically was reselling pre-made crap. asia meets tacky. shaped bamboo. in aweful aweful pots and plexiglass. they are on top sparkly black fabric-did i mention it was 2 older poofdahs selling the stuff? (who says gays are paragons of taste?) and strewn over the fabric blinking mini lights. DISCO! more stuff behind me. an oil 'artist' behind me. not too bad, better than tom krapcaid. but rather banal. next to her on the right is another servable painter. less for sale. somebody selling ssewing shit. a potpoirri table. a so so photographer. a baked goods table-that one good as they had almond tarts! and some stuff in a higher area. used books and a watercolorist. ok lame. i wrote letters, read the paper, listened to WHAD ya know. had too many thoughts of keith. wishing i was with him. instead of trying to make money amonst poo.
i went in not expecting much, so that fact that i DID sell a matted landscap print for $10, i was happy. only few took any interest and most people who were there to sell.
heh, how was your saterday?
well, i suppose it coulda been worse.
