One of the things I love about Bud is that he’s a fan of simple pleasures. He doesn’t yearn for much, simply because he’s happy with what he has. The guy will have his own apartment pretty soon. I’m already planning on taking on an alter ego super hero form – the decorating fairy – sneaking in while he’s sleeping and hanging a picture one night, laying a rug the next, replacing his single plastic plate and bowl with a set of cheap dishes that will at least match. He’ll never figure it out.

Have I mentioned that outside of his tuition and room & board, he spends about $12/month?

But, one thing he CANNOT live without is having something to keep his hands busy. Thankfully, this is a very cheap hobby.

Whenever we Skype, it’s evident his hands are always moving. On one of our recent calls, I asked him to show me what he had around him. And, being the consistently evil person I am, I snapped pictures without his knowledge.

A blue rubber worm, paperclip necklace, deck of cards, class ring, and toy truck. What more does a guy need?

Tte decorating fairy is already devising a plan for sneaking the rubber worm and the paperclip necklace into the garbage can.

I shall replace them with a decorative air freshener and a potted plant.

I shall be a ninja stealth decorating fairy.  Bud will never know.
