About 2 years ago, I got a screenprinting set from someone on freecycle, because I'd wanted to try screen printing for a while now. I'd put it up on a shelf, then forgot about it, then I moved it to a closet and mostly-forgot about it, and recently it's ended up out of that closet and on my floor, where after tripping on it a few times, I've gotten some ideas of things I wanted to try printing. Also, now Rhys has seen it, and he has been bugging me to do it for a bit.
So this morning, I opened the box, which I was sure I'd done before, but I guess not. And it's got instructions, and inks, and all that, in good condition, but it's got no screens.
No. Screens.
And I've been holding on to this for two years now, kind of assuming in the back of my mind that if I ever got the hankering to do screenprinting that I could. But I can't. I've been holding on to something, counting on it, when actually when I bother to take 20 seconds to look, it's missing one of the core components I'd need for it to be any use at all.
I wonder how many other things in my life are like that.
