'Round and 'round

What comes around goes around. Mother's day. Sounds like a good day to show a little extra respect for your mother and the greeting card companies. So, I said "Screw it. I'll paint a card." It actually looked better than many commercially made four-dollar cards. And I'd rather pay an art supply company and put some time into it than sell-out and take two minutes looking for the perfect card (read as: "I fight to keep at least some of my family values alive in an age of 'I don't have time.'" -OR- "I'm pissed because I'm not the one making easy money on lazy consumers.") Perhaps it even had more meaning to its recipient. Who's to say?

Maybe my mom will paint me a card for Son's day. Well, maybe I'll just have to wait for a new Hallmark-holiday.
