august isn't the only one who can do card tricks

Here are some things that I need to start doing:

• going into work on some kind of regular schedule: this coming and going when I please is nice and flexible but also stressful for me to make sure I get enough hours every week
• drink more water
• eat all my meals: somehow dinner keeps slipping past, uneaten... also sometimes breakfast
• sleeping in my bed instead of on the couches in my living room like a hobo
• changing my clothes every day instead of sleeping in them and wearing them again the next day (ok, so I only did that once, but it really should not have happened: I am not homeless, I shouldn't smell like I am.)
• morning scripture study: I think it'll be better than my sometimes-at-night "schedule" I've got going on right now
• making books because I like to, not because I'm being forced to by The Man

In other news, I made this little baby for my friend Jared's birthday at the beginning of the month. I was inspired by this kid August in our branch who does all kinds of crazy card tricks (he's also the one who hypnotized those girls last weekend: a man of many skills). This card is a flag book, just like the one yesterday, but larger. Also, for a birthday. So, you know, different in every way.

The front...

The crazy, punny inside!

Tomorrow: Flippity floppity birthday goodness.
