Went to the Highland Square Fest this weekend and while it rained most of the time, it was still good to get out and about for a while. I kept my wallet, keys, and phone in a plastic bag in my pocket and I figured the rest of me would dry out eventually.
Got some popcorn, wandered around and saw the art vendors and street performers, and hung out with friends – listening to the music and eating so-so pizza.
The acapella group from UA was there for a while and they did a good job – though like the steel drum band a lot of that goes a long way for me. They were very… earnest, though.

When I got home I cleaned up a bit in case it worked out for people to come over. I cleaned the bathroom and did the dishes – then got out the vacuum to finish off the living room.
I did the floor, then turned the dial to use the attachments and get the curtains where Thunder likes to brush against. It wasn’t doing a very good job and I checked the dial to see that it was in the right spot.
It wasn’t. I had been on attachement mode while cleaning the floor and floor mode when I worked on the curtains. Had to the entire living room again because, apparently, I can’t read.

Years ago, I made an origami crane out of a coke can – just to see if I could do it. The end result was only “close” to a crane – but I was still pretty proud of it. Got cut up a bit though – and neglected to get a picture of it.
As part of my unofficial “fold-anything” project, I decided to try this again with a 7 Up can and document it.
I’ve added this to my tumblr account here:
Not the best crane I’ve ever done – but recognizable.
