Woah, brought my terrible day around 180. Work was awful, and all I wanted to do was go to my room and hide under my blanket with a flashlight and crayons and shroud myself from the world. Lo and behold, a package from my Arbitrary Day gifter was waiting for me, camouflaged in the pile of unopened mail and packing supplies I desperately need to organize.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is a Da Vinci Cosmotop watercolor brush-- a mix of some sable here, some synthetic hair there; oh, and these range from $25 upwards to $80 for a single brush. As solely a hobbyist in watercolor, you can't imagine how happy I am to receive this. I broke it in this afternoon with this painting of beta fish!

Much love to my anonymous gifter!
