whoa, someone else has this much time on their hands too?

No news on a travel date yet. Though we did get an updated health report on M+M... they're both laughing out loud and rolling over from back to front! Gees. I wish they'd pause and wait til I get there before they change anymore!

So, I've had to find more projects. Or just ways to (ahem) be productive. For instance, this website I learned about today: Sketchswap

You draw a picture. Any picture you want, but no erasing allowed. When finished, you submit your drawing, and the website sends it to another artist. And...voila! You get to see someone else's drawing!

For example, say you drew something called "Juicy Lips Inc." (Just an example, drawn by a totally random artist you don't know. Really!) A bit scary, but lets say this is your style:

Is it a man? Is it a woman? Where'd he/she get those lips, anyway? How mysterious this sheman is! When finished drawing, admire it for a moment (cause this is the last time you'll see it) click submit, and this stunning piece of artwork will be exchanged for something in return.

Say, "Lamp+Man+Rabbit=Peace"Somewhat abstract, and I'm still working on an interpretation... though it does appear the man has shocked himself with a spoon-shaped lamp, and somehow achieved peace through this. And I don't know what's up with the worried rabbit. Shouldn't he be happy for the man? (Thank goodness the artist included labels.) Excellent swap!

Go ahead, try it. You'll be surprised where drawing with a mouse will take you, and maybe if you're lucky, "Juicy Lips Inc." will come your way too. The artist is only doing a limited number of these sketches (I heard), so hurry on over while supplies last!
