stained glass

I finished my first stained glass project on Wednesday night. It's mirror with an inch and a half of glass around it. My cuts are straight and the solder doesn't look half-bad. Now I need to come up with some other designs. The first project was assigned to us but for everything else, we're on our own.

I left class early this week because I was done and didn't have any ideas for the next time. The instructor didn't know why I would be in a rush to leave so I lied and said that I was meeting a friend for dinner. He then announced to the class, "It sounds like someone's going home to get some nookie." To set the stage just right, only three of us showed up for class this week - two other men and me. The instructor, Don, is well into his retirement, well over 6 feet tall, and well over 300 lbs. To his "nookie" comment, I just smiled and probably turned red. As I was packing up, I overheard someone tell Don, "You know, that's what they have drugs for these days." To which he replied, "Yeah, but Viagra doesn't work either." I was going to make a sarcastic comment about TMI but then realized that we're still in Lent, and I'm still trying to give up sarcasm. I just left the room as fast as possible.
