Global Reform.

Around Christmas time, we were given a globe.  I was excited because, like a lot of people, I like the idea of decorating with them.  This globe is nice and big, but the base leaves a little to be desired:

Have you ever seen a plastic globe before? 
Me neither. 

So you know what I did, right?  Yes, that's right.  I painted it.

Okay, not quite like that...

It's still a little too "modern" for my taste and I'm thinking that perhaps an "oil rubbed bronze" look might be better, but that will require a trip to Walmart and since I've already been once today, it's not happening right now.

Maybe tomorrow.  Global reform takes a lot of time, thoughtful introspection, and patience, don't you know...
