Alright, I finished the bracelet and I don't completely dislike how it turned out.
But really, what the hell was I thinking?
Oh yeah, I remember now....
"It would be fun to make this nifty bracelet by hand-setting 225 tiny mosaic tiles, not once but twice (because I messed up the first time through) on a leather strap?"
Unfortunately, I don't seem to have an internal critic to talk me out of these things until I've already started a project.
Then the usual conversation goes something like this:
IC: What are you doing?
MMI: I'm making this lovely bracelet for a friend! Isn't it going to be great?
IC: You're kidding right? When did you come up with this insane idea? Are you nuts? Never mind, I already know the answer to that one...
MMI: What? What's wrong with my idea? You never like anything I want to do!
IC: That's because you do insane things and pretend that they are fun, you nut-case!
MMI: F_ off!
IC: You're only getting mad because you know I'm right...
MMI: ...yes, but...
IC: But what?
MMI: But do you have to be such an ass about it?

My internal critic never likes anything I want to do, either. And she finishes every sentence with "fatso".
Wow, G-
Your internal critic sure is a bitch.
Mine is just an ass!
I still can't believe that you don't know how beautiful you are - not even sometimes?? Not ever?? Not even on your best hair, make-up and attire for the symphony type of day?
And I don't drop the B word for just anyone you know.
