Sometimes when I’m working on a bunch of projects and staying up really late to hit my deadlines, I, against what some people would call “better judgement,” set my work aside and do something (sort of) creative and (very) mindless for a bit.
One instance of that practice lead to what became lovingly called, “The Great Red and Blue Computer of 2003.”
So, back in the day, right in the middle of studying for finals and writing papers, I just stopped what I was doing and meticulously spray painted my computer red and blue. In my apartment. Because paint fumes were exactly the kind of pick me up I needed. (Just kidding about that, mom!) It turned out really pretty actually. It’s a shame that computer is long gone now, and since I don’t have a picture I can’t show you. What a totes bummer or whatever the youths say.
