Can I Buy A Vowel?

No I couldn't.

The "A" and "E" were no longer available at that little souvenir shop in Bali, where I was on vacation with my parents when I was 15 years old. So I had to get creative with a "V" and "3".

This is a closet door in my old room at my parents' place. The letters are hand carved and made of wood. "Uh-huh-huh...huh-huh-huh, you said wood!" A little Beavis & Butthead reference there (doesn't matter if you don't get it).

The closet doors have lots more stuff that was drawn, stickered or glued on it throughout my childhood and teens. So they could be the object of more blips in the future, I imagine.
