Polymer Clay came to me

 We celebrated last night, the so-called "Noche Buena." We were playing the white elephant game. Pick one gift from a pile of the 26 mystery boxes we had, according to your lucky number. My number was 10. When it was my turn, I chose a small box that contained, coincidentally, the only art materials out of that pile. That was very significant for me, like a sign from above. No one challenged my pick, so I kept a box of 48 tiny polymer clay sticks. Now, that reminded me that I have a bunch of clay-sculpture materials in my garage, so after receiving this set, the best I can do with this gift is use it for something interesting. I'm not letting this go to waste. I still don't know exactly what I want to do with it, but it could be some incense burners, fake plants in tiny pots, or even some animation. For starters, if I really do animation, it could be something relatively simple, probably two-dimensional, or if I get truly engaged, I might do something more complex, like wire-animated puppets. I'll do voiceovers for the characters if I'm in the mood. We'll see. The critical point here is to keep me completely busy and not have time to get anxious or depressed.
