22:20:00 <anotherirc3r> wow! you're making me tired just reading that
22:23:00 <^bozojim> lol
22:26:00 <anotherirc3r> Jim, have you seen the movie Awakenings?
22:32:00 <anotherirc3r> fiiiine
22:35:00 <^bozojim> no i have not
22:35:00 <^bozojim> I cannot see miovies
22:35:00 <anotherirc3r> oh, of course.. i'm sorry
22:35:00 <^bozojim> no problem
22:35:00 <^bozojim> the guys at the shed forget I am blind all the time
22:35:00 <anotherirc3r> it was a sad movie :/
22:35:00 <^bozojim> oh
22:36:00 <anotherirc3r> it was about catatonic patients in a hospital getting an experimental drug to help them function 'normally'
22:37:00 <^bozojim> sheesh
22:37:00 <anotherirc3r> they did get better but then the chemical reaction from the drug stopped
22:37:00 <anotherirc3r> and they got worse again :/
22:37:00 <^bozojim> that would be filled with ethical issues
22:38:00 <anotherirc3r> what was sad was that apparently their higher faculties like thinking and feeling were working but their physical bodies just.. didn't
22:38:00 <^bozojim> oi
22:38:00 <^bozojim> ok
22:38:00 <^bozojim> type right Jim
22:39:00 <anotherirc3r> i think it would be truly awful to be in that way
22:39:00 <^bozojim> yes it would be
22:39:00 <anotherirc3r> if i couldn't do things for myself and i was aware of it.. i think i'd rather be euthanised
22:39:00 <^bozojim> true
22:40:00 <anotherirc3r> you know when some things just really get to you?
22:40:00 <anotherirc3r> that movie did for me
22:40:00 <^bozojim> yes i do
22:40:00 <^bozojim> hugs
22:40:00 <anotherirc3r> hey, thanks *hugs*
22:41:00 <anotherirc3r> sorry to be a downer
22:41:00 <^bozojim> not at all
22:41:00 <^bozojim> I hav a pic of the clown face I glazed this afternoon almost complete before I did the final touches
22:41:00 <^bozojim> and put it back in the kiln to refire
22:42:00 <anotherirc3r> ohh, can i see please?!
22:42:00 <^bozojim> yes how would you like to
22:42:00 <anotherirc3r> can you either put it on imgur or message me on FB?
22:43:00 <^bozojim> can fb it
22:44:00 <anotherirc3r> great, thank you!
22:45:00 <^bozojim> done
22:46:00 <anotherirc3r> wow! cool!
22:48:00 <^bozojim> it came out of bisque firing this morning I glazed and put back in tonight
22:48:00 <anotherirc3r> i'm not sure what bisque firing is
22:49:00 <^bozojim> and I get out wednesday to put the soft body on and make a set of clothes for
22:49:00 <^bozojim> it is the first firing of clay to seal it so it is porous not sealed
22:49:00 <^bozojim> it goes to just under a thousand degrees
22:49:00 <^bozojim> and a glaze seals it and glaze at 1200
22:50:00 <anotherirc3r> oh, right. so you're going to dress the clown too!?
22:50:00 <^bozojim> yes
22:51:00 <^bozojim> I like the skin tone I used
22:52:00 <^bozojim> the forearms, lower legs are in that same colour
22:52:00 <anotherirc3r> that's so awesome that you actually made it
22:52:00 <^bozojim> the shoes are black with red balls on the tips and has white shoe lace holes
22:52:00 <anotherirc3r> i'm definitely not creative
22:52:00 <^bozojim> and the clown has white and yellow striped socks
22:52:00 <^bozojim> it is all my own design
22:53:00 <^bozojim> and I made it by hand
22:53:00 <anotherirc3r> you should be proud!
22:55:00 <^bozojim> I am
