The Medusa


Okay so there was this piece of glass that I made a while ago when I was in an experimental phase in my glass blowing. I never really knew what to do with it. My dad tried hanging it in the window, but it looked awkward. Recently I noticed that it had an interesting shape. This weekend I went up to Bellingham with a drill and a diamond tipped bit. I bought a downspout and a bowl at the local head shop and drilled a hole in the side and then inserted the parts I bought. The result was a beautiful bong. We took it into Nathan's bathroom and smoked out of it. It got me higher than I had been in a while. Dante, Raven and I decided to take a hike up to the watchtower and take along my new baby. We got half way when we stopped for a smoke break. When we took the Medusa out and to our horror, some of the glass around the newly drilled hole had broken off in the backpack. The broken part is a single piece, so I think will a little epoxy and a little luck, it'll repair with just a crack to remind me to be gentler to my art. Here's a photo of the Medusa after the deflowering. Nathan came up with the name "Because it gets you stoned."

Also Dante and I decided to make this blog private so that we can post this kind of thing. If someone who isn't an author want's to follow, I'm pretty sure we can add other people.
