I've decided I don't want this lovely thing anymore, not for lack of liking it, but because I can't help but associate it with the person who gave it to me. That would be my ex-monster, the red-headed thing. Though we had said we'd be friends, we haven't spoken in years, he will never visit me, and if![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
number42 doesn't take it for himself or his girlfriend, then he will also never know because I can't see him suddenly coming for a visit (though I could see him visiting ol' 42, and if he did get offended, I would chuckle).
So it just sits and stares all blank eyed at me, reminding me that I don't have his friendship anymore, the one thing about him I ever valued. So, I think it's high time someone with no bad associations gets to enjoy this hand-made leather painted mask, by a well known artist whose name I've forgotten since it's been years since I got to go to the Seattle Folk Life Festival, which is where I always saw the pretty pretty masks and wanted one. I secretly never liked it as much as others they had, with feathers and stuff, so I will simply buy another one from the same artist someday when I can afford to trek all the way out to Seattle again, and buy a very expensive mask... I just don't feel like I have to hold onto this one in the mean time, since my first impulse is to put it back in its box.
I will make the comments screened in case you want to make me an offer ;) Depending on who you are, it might just be a random birthday present, so feel free to speak up. Also, if you are from WA and know the artist's name, I would appreciate you speaking up so I could credit them. Searching yielded nothing I could concretely say was the right person, but y'all have likely seen the booth to which I refer.
