Why do i do this to myself ?😩

Im watching van builds and cruising motorhome videos.
Im so jealsous of some of these !

Mind you - some commerical motorhomes can be like $700 000....upto an obscene 3 million dollars - dafuq?!?!

On the build side - wow some people are creative and clever 😍

Still - its nice to watch and dream about such things 🥴

I just bought a van. It's a thrashed looking no frills '95 Astro.But it was pretty cheap.
And now it has new tires,new battery,oil and some eighty-dollar blue thing...a distributor?
So I'm well on the way to having a box on wheels to haul music gear and junk around.
But my little art brain has been ticking whilst Ryan has been wrenching on this beast in his yard-
and I'm like,yo. I need an upper deck to carry speaker boxes...oh,hey~why not wave more money at homeboy to test his welding skills and rip the roof off and add a whole 'nother level with that old acrylic skylight I got from Rick on the front and maybe stained glass accents with driftwood braces and shingles and and lazers and and incense braziers and make this hooptie a showpiece that says "the party is here!" when it shows up. Or just kind of keep it lowkey generic with the rosary on the rearview and bleeding Jesus stickers that don't exactly advertise that this thing is potentially loaded with expensive music stuff...? hmmm. Time to watch some gypsy van builds,methinks. Thanks for the heads-up,Oogie.

Plus I have many other tripped-out vehicle stories,trust me.

@dubkebab hahaha.
This is my brain at night 😂
I lay in bed and design shit till my brain gives up or gives in.

Altho these days my heads a bit more scatty (i think thats due to too much youtube and not enough books ...its tuning millennial on me), that i never even finish a project in my imagination, let alone in reality .

Mind you, sometimes those sorts of projects rarely end. Once youve done it, 3 months later you realize a better you should have done it

@OogieBoogie Words of wisdom. I went a bit far with coffee this eve.
But I will do some sort of art thing with this vehicle. Soon it will bring drums to the beach,at least.
