Glass vials and life debris.

i did this a while ago, but i just put it up again. i carried one vial a day for 102 days of my life and put some of the debris i encounterd in it, and cataloged it. if anybody is interested (but why would you be), i can list what is in each day's vial.

seems kinda oc, but that's under control now....kinda.

update!!
i found the list. i noticed that some of the vials are out of sequence in the photo (thanks to a couple idiot friends of my wife who thought it would be funny to rearrange some...i didn't have the list then to correct it). i altered the list to fit the photo. when i have the piece up again, i will put them in the proper order.

I'm rather interested in what's in the ones with liquid with them! A little gross or a little interesting?
