Does anyone Boston-area or DC-area have old, non-Jewish themed magazines they're not using? I will take them off your hands and REUSE them for a happier tomorrow. Though if you're DC area, I won't be able to take them off your hands until fall.

ETA: The following paragraph references the fact that I took an art therapy class this past week.

Also? I hate writing papers. Especially when I'm supposed to be packing at the same time (packing being an activity I hate more than writing papers) and especially when what I want to be doing is going through my notes and articles on art therapy and organizing what I learned this past week.

If you have the old magazines still lying around when I next visit DC, and the timing works out so that I can pick them up, that would be great.

(But that's a lot of ifs, so feel free to just recycle them instead! It would probably be loads easier for you.)

In any case, just to explain, I'm looking for old magazines so I can do collages with clients. I've just learned that collage is a particularly useful way to engage people in art therapy, because clients might do collage even if they're overwhelmingly worried about a perceived lack of artistic ability.

Try me again when you're here next. I'm feeling too guilty to recycle them (the susbscription was a gift). The art-therapy sounds interesting and, yes, I would do a collage where I too wouldn't touch pens or pencils! M.

Awesome, I will do so. That's exciting! I've never seen the magazine, but I imagine there's lots of pictures. *grins* AND I wouldn't have to censor it for the younger folk .

No, but you'll raise a whole generation that covets stainless steel fridges. *smile* The pictures are great. E-mail me when you're ready, magnetic-north at hotmail dot com. M.

Cool. I'll be in touch when I'm arriving to the area, and hope the timing works out! (Given the publicness of this post, should I delete the comment now that I have the e-mail address?)

[magnetic-pole.livejournal.com]

Nah, don't worry about it. Just e-mail when you need to. M.

*gasp* There are generations that don't covet stainless steel fridges? But . . . everything is better in stainless steel! Even my stainless steel skullcap . . .

Stainless steel chocolate...

...fondue fountain? That's what google seems to have. And the ones covered in chocolate look tasty enough to eat . . . thankfully it's hard to get your mouth around a 19" monitor, so I couldn't actually try and eat the pictures . . .
