    The Santa Ana’s are Here!

    The Santa Ana’s are Here!

    It was downright electric outside today. The Santa Ana Winds blew in and brought a bunch of excitement with them. The warm dry air clears all the fog away and leaves everything sparking and zapping. I used to hate the static and the way my hair always blew into my lip gloss but now I don’t care about my hair and I don’t wear lip gloss, so blow wind blow! Blow all that trash in the alley away!

    I walked my wind blown self down to the beach to watch the giant wind blown waves and dug my feet into the sand for the very first time this year. It was great. It almost felt like Summer is coming! Time to get a pedicure and wear my flip flops!

    I don’t really look like the girl I illustrated… that’s just the way I felt inside.

    Slow News Day

    How many times have I used that title? Far too many. But today I am on strike because our coffee maker is broken. (No caffeine=no brain activity.) It just gasped it’s last gasp. You should have heard it. I might try and resurrect it just so I can film the death rattle sounds it makes when it’s trying to heat up the water. It seriously sounds like it’s channeling evil spirits from the dead. My coffee maker is possessed! I don’t think it’s going to coffee maker heaven. Maybe I’ll try and sell it at the big garage sale my mom and I are planning. Maybe some lucky fellow will want to tinker with it and bring it back to life.

    But since I don’t have that to show you or anything else exciting, I thought I’d show you this other action packed suspense movie I’ve been working on. (660KB a very very small quicktime movie!)
