First time ever - I mixed my fixer wrong.
Do you know what you get when you develop your film in not enough fixer? Milky negatives. Negatives that look like they have been dipped in milk. Weird. As I've said, I've not yet experienced this before. I know, I know. You are asking why didn't I simply read the instructions on my fixer bottle's inner label? Well, my vision is challenged and I cannot read (nor can many other "unchallenged" visionaries) the tiny print on those stickers. I looked up how much fix to put together but got on some weird website that told the wrong measurements and, well, here was my result. My images were not completely LOST from this one roll, however. I was able to save one that was pretty alright. I'll post the negative with the bleeding the lack of fix left on each negative and then also the cropped, processed image. I think this is an interesting look. Ultimately, I might try to do a series with a less-that-totally-fixed film aspect -- could be interesting. Mixing new fix. :-)

Well, you try to work uniquely and try to do something new. I think it is necessary to try something new in your life and you are doing in the right direction. The good thing is that you learn so many things from this new experience.
