Voodoo doughnuts and David Lynch territory.

Well well, look who's blogging. I have been busy doing nothing. Not true. I've been planning a northwestern adventure. 24 hours of driving in 4 days, 3 states, can't complain about that. We're going to Portland, Oregon and Olympia, Washington. From what I've seen on the internetland, these are 2 very cool places. It's like, starting from Eugene WA up till Seattle, all women wear vintage dresses and black rimmed catseye glasses and knit skull, tea cosies and the guys all have toques and three musketeer moustaches and are vegan chefs. That kind of place. There's even a big craft fair at a log cabin style bar. It's gonna be so Twin Peaks! People will be talking backwards and mimes will replace traffic lights at every intersection and there will be donuts in the shape of voodoo dolls. Well, only that last bit is true. There's a place called Voodoo doughnuts, open 24 hours a day, where they perform marriages, give Swahili lessons and produce some seriously left leaning pastry. Now I know why David Lynch makes all his movies in the northwest. In fact, almost as a cosmic primer for the trip, one of the movie channels has been showing his films all week. I'm pretty excited.

Drawings. Drawings, frawings, brawings. I have been doing them, but they are in a serial form and not ready for release and taking up my time but I realized today that a gal can still post some quickly done, stupid drawings too right? So after the trip, I will try to get back on track with a drawing a day. In the meantime, here's a cryptic view of those comics I mentioned.

Now I must go create a valentine's day masterpiece which will not be posted due to obscenity laws. Just kidding but some things are private, gosh!
