I'm pretty much amazing.

I found out today I can actually cook good food if I'm not too lazy. Slice up some vegetables, sate them, fry some chicken goblets, and dump it on a bunch of rice. There you go. Dinner. (Note: Too much cayenne pepper will fry the tastebuds long afterwards.)

"That looks like a restaurant!"

I noticed that many of my teammates are really excited, nervous, anxious about the big meet next week. (In 6 days if you can believe that!) So instead of being all nice and personal (I don't like talking to people), I decided to draw a pirate's map with a cheesy message. My favorite part? Jack Sparrow. You read correctly. I was amazed I successfully drew a cartoon that could be interpreted as Jack Sparrow. If you took a picture of Jack Sparrow, stomped on it, threw it in water to marinate for 20 years, that's what my Jack Sparrow looks like.



Because I'm so darn proud, I'm treating you to a close-up. (He's glittery because I didn't notice the watercolors I had purchased were the "glitter" version. Dang.)



Oh, and to top it all off, Stephan Pastis accepted my friend request on facebook. I am Stephan's friend.

Very very nice! It looks professonal just like your dinner. I can't wait to see it in person.

Could I hire you to come live with us and cook our food? My poor kids are tired of hot dogs and macaroni and cheese.

Oh yeah, maybe he's glittery because he's a vampire pirate.

Hey Nat - (I don't have your email...)
I'm thinking of doing the Lake Coeur D'Alene 10K open water swim on August 14. Hows about you drive mom and dad up and swim it with me?
