Never say neverland.



OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!

I start my first animation job in 8 years. Tomorrow.

My Pete keeps telling me it's like riding a bike...that it will all come back and such...

Never the less...I am still a little freaked...

WTH? Where'd these mouse ears come from?

Watch me remember at 3 a.m.



I was having lunch and a chat with my mom; I wanted to tell her something, but got so distracted within the conversation that I forgot what it was.

3 hours later and I still can't remember.

God, how I hate that!

Knotty Girl



Can you believe I actually spent a good portion of my afternoon learning to tie knots? ( I can now tie 5!) Now I am able to actually teach the Cubs in the pack to tie 'em.

Thank You animatedknots.com.

When the rescue ship comes, I'll Sink the ship...

...and declare the island as it's own nation. Now you really can be The Queen (or King) of your own country.

Keep the flys out of your eyes!

I finally finished the "airship" goggles, I have been threatening/challenged to make. And, they are actually wearable. It's amazing what you can do with toilet rolls, isn't it?

If you want to make your own, go to Brassgoggles.

Have fun!

Day After The Family Easter Party


... is one of the few times that my son gets to stay up past his bedtime. He is totally in his element and plays on his cousin's computer. All day.

By the way, he really does look like this the morning after.

Torchwood Haiku

O.k. This isn't a movie, but it was the last thing I watched. It deserves a haiku.

Cardiff has a rift

Captain Jack, Ianto, Gwen

Torchwood is ready

Wow. Twentyfive cents.


I actually made 25 cents drawing this "Rhino" for something on Mechanical Turks. I'll admit it was kind of fun.

I'll have to be careful or I'm going to get addicted to this.

So, far I've only had 2 rejections for mis- tagging something. How was I suppose to know that "how mechanics can do things to your car engine so it won't pass the environmental" wasn't under "environmental".
Sheesh.

Snow again?! I think I'll just draw...



...these flowers.
Well, here are some daffodils that I've sketched ( while drinking a coffee, of course ) so I can be in a more spring-like mood.

Pretty.

Spring?! Not yet!



Yesterday was a perfect spring-like day. Warm, sunny, a good day to do many outdoor activities.

Today, however, it's snowing/raining. It's cold and damp. Blechh.

Mother Nature, what is wrong with you? Is this your idea of an April fools joke? 6 days late?

Stuck in an elevator with "The Doctor"


"The Doctor"
Well, at least I'd know he would find a way to get out of there. And, he is kind of nice looking...then, of course, I would have to agree to be his companion and travel the universe, saving it from nasties like Daleks and Cybermen...fun!!

Happy World Autism Day!



I'm not going to use my blog to blather on about Autism (I'll leave that to the Talk show hosts and Celebs), but instead thank all the people who help those kids and adults who have this neurological disorder (notice I did not call it a "disease".) .

If you want or need more information, I will post a link to the Geneva Centre for Autism in Toronto and Autism Ontario.
Good folks with good info.

April Fool for you...



Sounds like a shojo manga, doesn't it?
Well, what can you expect from someone who spent the day laying on the couch while hopped up on Advils trying to get rid of a particularily nasty migraine.

And, yes, I was reading Shojo Beat magazine, if you must know.
