My Uncle Gilbert
One of the things we did while visiting my family in Texas over the holidays was stop by my uncle’s studio in San Antonio.  He is a professional artist who recently was at the center of a “scandal” over a fork sculpture he created (read about it here).  I googled him just now and discovered a story about him giving away art to a little girl.  When I was little, I would draw...

G.T.T.
“Gone to Texas, often abbreviated G.T.T. or GTT, was a phrase used by Americans immigrating to Texas in the 19th century often to escape debt, especially in the South and Midwest. It was often written on the doors of abandoned houses or posted as a sign on fences.”  —Wikipedia This is one of a handful of facts I remember from elementary school Texas history.  I am off to Texas...

Brat Cat
So Brat Cat has been bugging me that he wants his own blog.  Should I let him have his own blog? You know, as a Christmas present or something?

Doing Christmasy Things!
Here are the cards I made that I’m beginning to send to friends and family.  I’m not usually crafty, but sometimes the teacher in me shows: And we are having a holiday cocktail party this week, so of course I had to make snowflakes to hang in our windows (while listening to archives from This American Life—I am a big dork): Are you being Christmas crafty?

Christmas Music
Did you know that Pandora won’t let you thumbs-down anything on the Christmas station?  Really, Pandora?  Here I am in my apartment, all alone, drinking gingerbread tea and drawing while it rains and rains outside, and my day would be perfect if I could thumbs-down Josh Groban.  But I can’t.  I can only skip Josh Groban, which doesn’t adequately express my dislike for Josh...

Stuff I've Learned
1.  After you shake your india ink, leave the cap on for a few seconds or else popping ink bubbles will speckle your paper. 2.  Don’t rest your hand on the part of your painting that is still wet. 3.  Haste makes waste… and irreversible mistakes.

Finally!
I was very excited when I got the email saying Flavors.me beta is up and running!  I just messed around with my page for like, two hours.  I don’t have all of my services set up yet but will soon.

I’m not gonna lie: I really like it when vintage Pop-Up Video shows on Vh1 Classic…  Does that make me old?
