Truth, Justice and the American (??) Way...
Have I mentioned....SUPERMAN....??? You do not even want to know how dissappointed I'll be if I don't get to see this movie next weekend. I have walked around all day, with my fists on my hips, legs firmly apart, chest puffed out, bellowing "Truth, Justice and the American Way" all day....to the response, "Mom, we're Canadians" "Mom, you're losing it" "Moooom, we GET it already"
These people just don't feel me, ya know? Well, Sara is trying, really she is. We had a coversation about Superman saving Clark Kent this morning so I felt obliged to give her the low-down on how Superman, who pretends to BE Clark Kent, could possibly SAVE Clark Kent.


I realized Sara had been watching an episode on Cartoon Network, and was confused by seeing Superman save Clark Kent....imagine my gleee!!! A perfect opportunity to (rubs hands together) pull little Sara out of the world of Spiderman into KRYPTON. And it worked!! I told her all about Bizarro, where he came from, how he wanted to be Superman, was Superman's complete opposite, how it was BIZARRO pretending to be Clark Kent....and, and, Sara was overwhelmed by how cool the whole thing was. And I was bouncing in my chair. {{ That was actually the moment I started walking around yelling "TRUTH, JUSTICE and the AMERICAN WAY" I'll have you know, so the children have no one to blame but themselves.}}
Anyways, I wish I was more of a Superman geek, but I'll make do with what I have.

In other news...I ate way to much Chocolate on my birthday, dark chocolate covered chocolate cheesecake with dark chocolate leaves....and chocolate mouse cake covered in chocolate fudge syrup...followed by a Mars bar. Oh the headache I suffered. But it was worth it. And I didn't eat it all at one time, it was sorta spread out through the day. Mr. Paul gave me a gift certificate to Michael's...what's better then a shopping spree? A shopping spree that's paid for by someone else and has a 40% coupon attached....oh yeah, uh huh, oh yeah. Sara and Drew made me an art shrine out of a shoe box. Too cool. And Kayla and Alex gave me a clean house! Woot!

Paul's going to a friend's place tonight for a pig roast. I've been invited of course, but really don't want to go. This is the second year in a row I've bailed out on the annual roast. I've got mixed reasons for not going, mostly Paul thinks it's so I won't smack the crap outta one of the wives, but really there's other reasons that I'll just sort of keep to myself. So, I'm planning to stay home and art it up as much as I can.
Recently, I made a set of ATCs for the Mixed Media Muse Faux Metal Technique swap.

I hope the group continues to grow. I'm loving the members we have over there so far. Won't you join us?
