My dad’s birthday was two days ago. I wanted to draw (and frame) him a nice picture of some humming birds, because he likes humming birds (all kinds of birds, actually. But hummingbirds are his favorite). Or a Monster From the Black Lagoon picture, he likes the Monster From the Black Lagoon, too. But I’m late with it. I’m always late with birthday presents. And Christmas presents. And stuff like that. That frustrates me.

My dad is very cool. He’s like an encyclopedia, because, when he was a kid, he read lots of books rather than watch TV. You can ask him practically everything and he can give you the answer! He’s also got this really cool memory! He can take simple memories from when he was a kid and turn them into really funny stories (he really enjoys making people laugh and enjoys laughing himself). I would like to take some of them and make it into a book someday!

I went to Walmart with my cousin today. (she had spent the night the other night) We also went and got ice cream sundaes (her treat. I was broke [getting a new hat will do that to you.]. I will have to treat her sometime soon, when I get some money.)

I’m working on some new Matoran plushies. Watch out for them in the art section!
