In full-on busy bee mode this week literally up to my eyeballs in dolly parts using as much Missy-might as I can muster to have a new batch of Boopers ready for next week. I'm also going to be attending the annual Cake Walk here in Kelowna next Friday & promised to haul a bunch of dollies there as well. Mum is tagging along for moral support & ha ha, as much as she feels completely passionate about what we're doing, when she tells her friends at work & stuff that she is making dolls with fruit loops & shit on their heads she is getting some pretty strange looks & reactions. I think she's going to be sitting at our table next Friday hiding behind something & pointing at me when people pick up our dolls to take a look.

I'm also using almost every spare minute I can squeeze in to plan Zoo's upcoming 6th birthday party. He has never in his life been thrown a bash where kids were in attendance (he is such a little misfit / oddball that he simply hasn't ever made any friends) so with the absense of a yard full of children & the magic that they tend to create on their own, we're going all out to give Zoo a birthday to remember this year. He's been talking about robot cake & pizza forever so that's what's on the menu & I'll take the robo cake challenge on myself. We're also making him his own web site & have ordered an Arthur video from Kideo.com, in which he will be the star of the show! (I can't WAIT to see his face & watch him beam!)

Speaking of *birthdays*, today is the birthday of one of ***THE*** most memorable, influential, intoxicating & heart-wrenchingly beautiful humans to have ever walked Earth. Her name is Adrian & even if you took the most gripping lyrics ever & tossed in the writings of the likes of Gibran, you STILL wouldn't come close to finding words worthy of her sweet & decent soul. This picture is for her. I hope it makes her laugh & I hope her day's been good. (Adi, thank you for the years upon years of what you've done for this world & for my life!)
