had lamb for the first time today. i have to say, it was pretty tasty.

i want to plan some mini trips to MA, weekend trips, drive up on a friday night, leave on a sunday night. i'd like to just spend more time with family up there. my grandparents think it's a great idea.

not really anything interesting to say so i'm off to bed. and that's all.

hugs and grandparents

mimi and johnny (my grandparents) are visiting this weekend. i love them soooooo much! all my best hugs are reserved for them. and i can always count on a bright red lipstick kiss on my cheek from mimi, and dry, sarcastic, intelligent conversation with johnny. they really are my favorites. really and truly. tomorrow johnny will probably take shelbs, morgan, nik and i out somewhere, either shopping or for lunch or something. maybe we'll get a game of monopoly in or (which would be most fun) a good game of rummy in with mimi. saturday is morgan's pinning ceremony for nursing, which will be nice. overall, i'm looking forward to a nice relaxing weekend with the people i love the most.. MY FAMILY!!

this weekend is the absolute best ending to my week. couldn't think of anything better. not even a million dollars.. well, maybe a million dollars, as long as my grandparents are there too! :-)

erotic coloring books. any thoughts?




(the idea had morgan and i laughing for a good hour at least)

yeah, sometimes life's like that

not experienced enough. and there was another woman.. never a good thing. possible freelance in the future, which isn't a bad thing, and i got a raise here at work. still sucks though. i just want to go home, have a good cry, and be done with it.

what a bummer.

Beary Good

Here are my sample coloring book illustrations that I sent to Boyd's. I'm not sold on the line quality of the maze, I need to rework that. Anyway, if you click on the image, you can download the page. Maybe I should have a coloring contest or something..

obvious {but very good} advice

You just have to do what you love and love what you do. And that's all there is to it.

ponder of the day

why isn't 'casinos' spelled 'casinoes' like in 'tomatoes' and 'potatoes'?
