This Wednesday, February 17th, 2010 from 9pm until 12-ish or so, at Akbar, it’s CRAFTNIGHT!!!
Project: Medals
$2 Processing Fee, Please
$4 Cosmo Drink Special
ALERT: Want to know what crafts are coming in the weeks ahead? I just updated the Main CraftNight Website! CRAFTHEAD.COM Check it out and see what’s on our itinerary!
Now then… it has come to pass that the 2010 Winter Olympic Games are happening, and to get into the spirit of things, we’re going to make our very own medals at CraftNight! Though everyone has their ups and downs once in awhile, and you may feel strange or like there are too many things to do and not enough time, or too much time and nothing to do, what’s totally true is that YOU ARE A CHAMPION. I’m not lying. Just standing there and slurping your coffee, or staring off into space, or spilling burrito juice on your shirt, you are AMAZING.
Pat yourself on the back for having had the common sense to come into being and arrive into the world not knowing a SINGLE THING, only to have grown and prospered to the point of being able to sit here and read this bulletin like it ain’t no big deal. Well, it is a big deal, and you get to make yourself a MEDAL. It doesn’t have to be a special occasion (although I’m not going to rule that out, of course), you can use it for FUN, or use it for identification, heck, put your favorite quote in there or a photo of the town you grew up in, it’s YOUR 2.5″ plastic circle, do what strikes your fancy!
Sadly, I wasn’t able to acquire actual GOLD metals for CraftNight, but I know you’re clever and can rock the paper and plastic like a champ! Once you have your sassy self-made metal around your neck (ribbon included) I hope you gain a sense of belonging, as you are part of the really neat-o human race of champions!
Also, in case you’re worried about missing any exciting Olympic moments, we’ll be broadcasting the Olympics (on mute, while music plays) during CraftNight. This means that as you craft, you can gaze up at the screen, if you like, and observe someone in very brightly-colored technologically advanced gear performing highly specialized perfected activities that could only be possible after a lifetime of insanely dedicated training.
See you at the Craft Table!
