Duuuuude!

I have a colouring book that you can make origami animals out of. The fox and the cat are really neat.

oh, that sounds pretty cool!

*nod nod!* Some of the patterns in it are pretty complex... at least compared to the kid designs that I know by heart. LOL

! Oops! I kinda lied! <x'D Forgot I knew how to make the fortuneteller thing too! :]

[trystan830]

totally agree about some of the patterns being complex!

i also used to know how to fold a note so it had a tab to pull that would open the whole thing up.

[trystan830]

[Tam I am]

Oh wow. Is that complex, Den?

Oh that's cool. And I remember now, I used to know how to make a throwing star, too. And throw it.

Not as complex as a crane, tbph.

[Tam I am]

Neat. I don't think I've seen that one. Or if I did, menopause has lost the file.

This is a good tutorial for the lotus, and here is a tutorial for the leaves.

this is super cool. i've never actually sit down and learned origami.

recently i saw an origami bird in Frozen 2. it looked very real even though it was animated.

I feel like my period not only snuck up on me, but bashed me in the head with Reinhardt's hammer.

Foooood, blankie! Um. I better not have the tea though. Thanks, guys. The worst of that mess is over for now, but now I'm facing a big hole in my memory of Saturday. I remember going to the fish shop at the farmers' market, and placing my order, then talking to the person behind the counter. Today, I have no fish, and no memory of anything at the fish shop after what I just mentioned.
