Project 365

This zombie kitty will be going to a new home very soon. I'm doing an art trade with a very talented painter. Yay! She's doing a painting of a sparrow for me, and she wanted a zombie cat from me.
She LOVES her cat! I can't wait to see the painting she does for me!!

A candid shot from our Halloween photoshoot on Sunday with our friend Freddie. We're doing a post-apocolyptic zombie theme. And yes, that's a green screen behind me. Freddie will be photoshopping in backgrounds and whatnot. He's an amazing photographer and does wonderful things with photoshop.
The finished pics will be EPIC!!!!!

Actual things my son has said

If you have kids, especially toddlers, you know they can say some funny and weird things. My son Ayden, being my son, can say some really off the wall stuff. Enjoy!

"A monster took my beer! Come here monster! Give me back my beer!"

"My poop wants to stay in my butt."

"The grasshopper barfed on me."

"Mommy, I want the spider in my eye."

"He's not dead, mommy. He's just sleeping. He's okay." (said after he squished a bug)

"Stop being loud or the emergency will come and take you to jail."

"Yesterday, at school, there was an alligator and he ate me." (he doesn't go to school)

"Daddy, come fold laundry with me." (yes, he likes folding laundry)

"You can't take off my head 'cause it has bones in it. And then I'd be a zombie."

"Zombies eat babies."

"I saw a zombie and I said oh no a zombie no!!! And I shot him! You shoot the zombies!"

"The zombie will come and get you and make you dead."

"Zan the icky poop dog!" (which is true)

"Spiderman is proud of me for pooping. Zan isn't proud. She poops outside."

"Look mommy! Jesus has a slide! I wanted to go there . . ." (said anytime we pass a church)

I know I'm going to be getting A LOT of phone calls when he goes to preschool, kindergarten, grade school . . . . .

But like I said, he is my son, so it's only natural!

ALMOST caught the shot without being blurry!

Zombie Bear is SHOCKED!!!

Ahhhhhhhhh, my latest critter!



He looks quite shocked, no? Probably thinking "why the hell is my head so cold? And it feels lighter . . ."
Then he's all "oh. My brain is exposed. Because I'm a FREAKING ZOMBIE!!!"
Obligatory brain shot . . . . .


He's 5-way cotter pin jointed for endless fun zombie poses!!!!!

A serious post - because my friend needs your help

I don't often write serious posts. But I am today. Because my friend needs everyone's help and support.

Her name is Amy Goss. She's my friend and coworker in the nursery (for those of you who don't know, I work in a birth center delivering babies). She's 25, was married this past February and is 6 weeks pregnant.

And she was just diagnosed with brain cancer.

Yes, brain cancer.

She never had any symptoms. Last Monday at work, she had just gotten back from a delivery. She was in the nursery, standing by a warmer bed. She then dropped to the floor and had a 2 minute grand mal seizure with posturing (which is not good), and turned blue. A code was called and she was rushed to the ER where she was given Valium and other meds to control the seizure. A CT scan reviled a tumor in her left frontal lobe, behind her left eye. An MRI showed a malignant brain tumor twice the size of what the CT showed.

Tomorrow (Tuesday), she is going to University Hospital in Denver to meet with a neurosurgeon and a neuro oncologist. She WILL be having brain sugery to remove as much of the tumor as possible, followed by chemo and radiation.

What I'm asking for is for you to keep her in your thoughts and prayers. Send a link to this, or her blog to anyone you can. If you have time, leave a comment on her guestbook.
We will probably be setting up a donation page, if anyone is interested. Even with insurance, her medical bills will be tens of thousands at best.

My coworkers and I will be selling grey wrist bands for brain cancer awareness - with ALL procedes going to Amy and her family.

Again, please check out her blog, and keep her in your prayers.

catch up for yesterday and today.

Irrational Fears

I like to think that each one of us has irrational fears. Even if it's just one. Even if we don't admit it to the people around us.

Or at least thinking that makes me feel better.


See, I have A LOT of irrational fears. Most of them ridiculously dumb. Well, okay, ALL of then ridiculously dumb.


I'm going to share one of them with you. The one my hubby makes fun of me the most for.


I am CONVINCED that if I open my eyes underwater in a swimming pool, there will be a shark, and it will eat me.


I'm dead serious. I've had this fear since I was a little kid.


See, I'll be in a pool, having fun, minding my own business . . .

I duck underwater to wet my hair . . .


I'm all happy . . . . but I feel watched. I open my eyes.

OMG is it behind me? Is there a shark behind me?



OMFG A SHARK IN THE POOL!!! THERE'S AN EFFING SHARK IN THE POOL!!!!!!! WTF?!?!?

Don't judge me. I can't help it if there's sharks in swimming pools waiting to eat me. Maybe people should spend more time cleaning their pools. Then there wouldn't be such a problem with sharks in them.

I MADE A DEMON HORSE WITH A GIMP MASK!!!

Hell yeah!!! I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO made a demon horse with a REMOVABLE GIMP MASK!!!!!!

Oh yeah - and he has a penis.



He looks pretty normal here . . . .albeit with bulgy eyes and removable bondage collar . . .

Holy gimp mask, Batman!!!!!!



Gratuitous genital shot . . . .the papparazzi are all over this one . . . .will probably be all over the tabloids . . . . .

So, my friend Jared has been bugging me to make a plush version of the demon horse that's outsid of Denver International Airport.


Ahhhhhh, there he is . . . .

The one thing Jared kept begging for was a huge cock.

So I made it. With a cock. And a removable gimp mask. And bondage collar. And I named him Jared after my friend.

Because I'm awesome.

Find him in my shop!

OMG PRINCE POPPYCOCK!!!!!!!!

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG I LOVE PRINCE POPPYCOCK!!!!!!!

Do you watch America's Got Talent?

Prince Poppycock is FREAKING FANTASTIC!!!

OMG CAPITAL LETTERS!!!!!


Prince Poppycock happens to be John Quale, a singer/songwriter/performer.

There's John, without his fancy garb.

This guy can SING! He has an amazing, powerful voice, perfect for opera. But he also has this amazing theatrical stage presence. And awesome costumes!! (I love his costumes and makeup)


Jeremy probably thinks I'm a wee bit off my rocker. I have a soft spot for men in drag.

How can you NOT though??????

I mean, COME ON!

The flamboyance, the costumes, the sheer entertainment of it all!!!

Man oh man. If you want to see more of Princ Poppycock, check out his website - he's amazing.
