I fibbed. There is a new piece of Tanake Trang art but it was just uploaded today.
did this groovy version of Tanake Trang and put up with me throughout the process! Thanks again for all your hard work. She looks wonderful
Ever have mediocre food that you don't really snap to until you are 1/3 of the way in... because you are hungry enough to not discern the lack of flavour?
Yeah.
I went out to eat today with my friend B. + her daughter. They was good bread to start off the meal so that was promising enough but when my entrée (crab cakes + shrimp) arrived, I dug in happily. And it ended up being just bland and uninspired. It didn't click though until I had a few bites to really taste it? Does that make sense? It finally arrives to the table and I tuck in happily. I took some bites. I had some of the fries (which were good) and then took another bite of the crab cake and went... bleh.
I think I've been burned enough times with hit and miss food there that we won't be returning. You've been warned so moving on.
The rest of the day went well though. Dropped back by the house to retrieve GC and then to Carkeek for a bit of outside time so B's daughter could run around and enjoy herself.
Picked up some small things at Daiso:
- a small milk pitcher for tea
- a black ceramic flat plate
- a small saucer ringed with red glazing
- a bag of baked potato crunchy things
- a whole bunch of display cases for toys (ongoing project)
I heart that store dearly. Check it out if there's one near you.
Anyway, I dunno what we're going to do tonight. It's our one night with nothing specifically planned so it feels good to vegetate. Maybe I'll make something munchy and we'll watch a good movie.
My way of acknowledging the talent of artists who have created exemplary works of my characters.

Devious Journal Entry
Spring has hit Seattle and it's been over two years since I've written a journal!
My long-time partner surprised me in December of 2012 with a proposal and a wedding, all on the same day. It was the most amazing night of my life and I'm happy to say that being married is pretty swank. I still get a kick out of passing him in the house and referring to him as "husband"...
Hope you are well, if you are reading this.
What's new in your world?
She-Hulk Smash.
This article made me face-hot-blood-pressure-spike-She-Hulk angry.
Do you know who Anita Sarkeesian is? How about Feminist Frequency? If you answered no to either, I humbly ask you to educate yourself. Anita wanted to analyze and deconstruct common tropes and stereotypes of female characters in games. Don't know of any? Oh c'mon... they exist as the "sexy sidekick" or "background decoration"... "man with boobs" or "the fighting f#k (https://www.deviantart.com/k) toy". Ring a bell now?
She launched a kickstarter, asking for $6,000 to do a series of videos on these topics, She reached that funding within 24 hours and over the following month, ended up raising nearly $160,0
PAX East!
Has it really been this long since I've done a journal? Yeah... it seems so.
I'm actually amazed that I've procrastinated from one PAX to another but you cannot argue with time date stamping. In a couple of days, we're headed to Boston for merriment and general geektastic camaraderie with friends from all over. I said this in my last journal entry. This weekend is PAX and it's time for getting my geek on! By the way, I just finished watermarking all the photographs from PAX Prime in 2010. Maybe I'll upload those before leaving...
PS. I also have a passel of new art to show off. Click through to each artist's gallery if you don't rec
PAX Prime!
I meant to write a new journal before now. I have lots of art to showcase and photographs to upload plus those Tanake journals.
sigh
But as usual, my procrastination has bitten me in the metaphorical arse.
This weekend is PAX. I'll have little time for being online. It's time for getting my geek on!
See you on the flip side, kiddies! I'll write again when I'm able.

I hear ya about the meal. I kinda had that experience tonight. We got this awesome soup as an appetizer (which sets you up for the meal) and then we got an awesome salad (so our expectations were pretty much set) and then we get the main course and it's totally bland compared to the rest of the stuff >< It was chicken, but it had a hint of lemony flavor, and that's about it. So sad lol
