Dat Devil...

"Halloween & Vine" was worth the drive to Petaluma. Met wonderful artists & oogled their incredibly fabulous creations. A bit of jostling 'bout as near-rabid fans jockeyed for positions to snap-up their favorites. A few boo-folk came home w/me to the Emerald Oz, including dat Red Devil by Lori Ann Corelis (http://www.lorianncorelis.com/), 3 ghoulish felt-folk by Kerry Howard-Schmidt (http://www.papermoongallery.etsy.com/), and 2 Johanna Parker critters: (http://www.johannaparkerdesign.com/)

More pix to post very soon. I feel Autumn in the air, don't you?

Adieu, Sweet Otis...

Otis, my Starbucks friend, died earlier this week. He lived a long life, surrounded by the non-furry sisters in his life - caring companions to the end. I shall miss the little guy :0(

What a college education will get you...

Well, I suppose a college education could get you the trappings of success, like a BMW. Then again, why wait until you've earned that diploma? Why, a resourceful college student at the College of San Mateo decided to start small & swipe the BMW emblem off the trunk lid of my car. Just hope s/he purchases the rest of the car. Mind you, in the scheme of all that is important in life, this thievery is but a mere irritant. However, it speaks volumes about what a college education will get you...

Pink Stinks?

Pink stinks? I should say...NOT! Good thing Leonardo doesn't live @ the Emerald Oz. He'd be bathed in all-things-PINK, thanks to LilyPad, who absolutely ADORES PINK :0)

Mr. Moon's dental hygiene...

Meowza! Mr. Moon takes his dental hygiene REAL SERIOUS! No tartar build-up for this kat-kid :0) Seriously speaking...he's lock-jawed on his favorite toy of the month, courtesy of his non-furry friend, Inara (and, thanks to the SF/SPCA for making it!). Who woulda thunk-it that a stick with rubber tubing would be SO fun!
