my insomnia has continued.
i have spent all evening moving boxes about and not watching Vanilla Sky.
Forgot to mention that my mom brought me home the most extraordinary necklace the other day. I think she bought it at a drugstore. It's a choker made with a leather strip and some polymer clay sliced-cane beads. I have never seen a fimo cane bead as detailed as these. They are Ukiyo-e-style Asian women in traditional dress, head and shoulders. Everything is done in outline and then "filled in" with another color; some areas have two or three colors perfectly set-in for shadows. There are some designs on some of the kimono necklines: one is striped, another has a small black starburst flower pattern. Made in China. I'm not sure whether it was done by hand or machine; it feels like hand work. I don't know that I could wear them - I'm sort of leery of it because of the subject matter - but they are quite interesting beads.
Back to my boxes, I think.
