	Call me astounded
	Sis called earlier and gaved me the GREATEST news!! She's at a con (Connexions, I think) and I sent some art with her for the art show. Seems I made a picture (Due South fandom) that brought in one of the highest bids--$175!!! I'm speechless! And she sold a few more for $10 each so I've got a lot more to pay on the credit card! WOO HOO!!! (Here's the pic) AND... I won a First Place award! For a LotR zine cover I did: (The scan isn't all that but I can't seem to find the original) I was really hoping to win something for a crossover zine I did a ton of work for but maybe that will happen at Media West. crosses fingers Next post will be Icons--I swear. I'm picking them out now. Current Mood: bouncy Current Music: "Float On" Modest Mouse

Did I really? I don't remember seeing hide nor hair of that one. The more I see it the more I expect Ray to start telling Fraser about streams and 'all of this has happened before, all of this will happen again' and 'Dief is a cylon!'

Must stop main lining BSG.

Congratulations!!!!

These are both lovely. I'm a Ray Vecchio fan, but I can honestly admit that this picture is gorgeous. You have a great deal of talent.

Say Yes to the Dress

Apart by Viggo Mortensen

you found my keys
on an angel's hip
moved half the fallen trees
from the frozen road.

this trip is
all i thought
it would be
and we're not
even 1/2 way yet.

if i can't touch you
with snow-hung firs
our only witnesses
can't have your eyes
when everyone's asleep
then the fire's almost out.

you ask the un-named
attractions to leave town
but keep checking
it i'm still around.

should we sidestep
putting fingers to
words tracing lips that
would inform us?

once said i'd missed
you every instant
before we'd met.
now believe we knew
how sad we'd be
apart.
