Little Iggy after his first toenail cutting

Dear Diary: I am still at the hospital but have seen the doctor and have a treatment plan that I am to follow. Along with very strong anti-OCHA-OCD medication taken 6 times a day, the doctor has me involved in a number of activities and he says the treatment of mental illness often includes activities such as arts and crafts. I have been encouraged to paint, write, and do other forms of personal self-expression, however, I'm not so sure that my doing any of this actually helped.

The Complete OCHA "Birthing" Kit
1 - Orange Foam Sheet
1 - Blue Foam Sheet
1 - White paper with Cone cutout template
1 - Scissors
Scotch tape
Stapler
-Not pictured-
Cup of Coffee
Dust Rag, preferably clean(er)
As you can see from the picture above, I built a prototype using the paper cutout to determine sizes and angles.

Using DVD Case, scribe half circle onto Orange Foam
Ready to perform my sugery, I tackle the orange foam.

I Used the Paper Cutout to determine how much of half circle is needed to create cone of the desired angle. In this case, about 2/3d of it.
With or without religious ceremony, cut tip off top of cone.

Fold Blue Foam into a square and cut away excess
Re-do paper cutout model and cut it in order to create reflective stripe. Pull over little conehead's ..umm... head.
Mail out birth announcements.

Wow... I'm impressed. They named their band after you LadyStyx!
I hope your ILuvMe jacket has one of the band's album covers on it.
:)
P.s., start to finish this thing only took about 10 minutes. It took longer to upload the pictures and write the blog. LOL
Someone bored at work again?
*nods*
...that and I can't help myself...
Of course...was there any doubt?
You're allowed to have scissors?
*Send a congratulations card to Harold and Delores* Sure is a cute lil bugger.
Oh wait...punkn's right...they allowed you pointy scissors? I would have expected them to only allow you the blunted kind....
Hey, I wasn't walking or running anywhere when I was using them, and I had adult supervision. :)
*shhhhh!* I swiped them so I can make my escape!
