Holy crap I got a grant. My first that I've applied for and I effin got it. In a wee bit of shock and SO excited about it.

I'll write another grant just to learn Fatty Mcdance and Beyonce. I'm sure they'll give me money for that!

well, i know for sure that there will be a market for your piece(s) in my apartment for the canadian-themed party we'll be having in your collective honor.

I think another piece might be in order for that kind of event. I have done a strip that started out with "Life is a Highway" while in a snowsuit. Know it?

What? No Avril or Celine?
