JAGS Hamada Exhibit

Tom and I visited the JET Art Group Shimane 2006 Changing Perspectives exhibit at the Hamada Children's Museum. Foreigners from all over Shimane submitted their art. I made a squid and an octopus, by far the most superior art in the show!! haha

My babies and I.

Tom admires Katy's gorgeous crocheted blanket.

Donna's crocheted tree made from used grocery bags.

Travis' paintings.

Nathan's mixed media.

Tom with my display. I set up a small draw box for whoever wanted to enter and win the octopus and squid.

Fun Times on the Gonogawa River

Who's a Naughty Girl?

I'm a naughty girl!!

I had my Imagestation account deactivated due to innapropriate images!!! I had no idea which images were offensive so I contacted them via chat and found out that my Naked Man Festival pictures were "offensive due to nudity".

So congratulations Shimane guys, your asses are so ugly they got me in trouble!!

It's all fixed now, but I had to delete the album.

I guess "cultural experience" counts for nothing if you have a big hairy gaijin ASS. They had no problem with my sumo wrestling album...but I guess those guys weren't grabbing each other!

The long wait is over!

I've FINALLY received information about my successor and I'm just so excited!!

I sent her an email and want her to write back NOW but I'm sure it's like 4 in the morning in the states. I have so much to tell her.

She sounds like a lovely person who will fit in nicely.

*leaves to check email again....*

My friend Kathy started a blog. Check it out and leave comments so that she is encouraged to write more.

Happy Birthday!

My nephew Wylie turns 2 today!! Here are some pictures my Mom took on her recent visit to Calgary.








This is my friend Kathy's baby, Cameron. He and I are going to be roomies in Aug.

Mighty (Mutant) Mouse

This post is dedicated to Nathan because I know he especially enjoys my posts about amigurimi.

Meet my mutant mouse. He turned out wayyyy bigger than he should have been, but he's still cute!

I made another blanket

I finished this during Golden Week but haven't gotten around to photographing it till now. It's the perfect lap blanket. Doesn't it look smashing on the back of my little couch? Very 1978 I think.
