Somehow I missed writing a post in November. Man. I don’t even remember November. There was turkey right? Well let’s see if I can remember December so far… I made it to the opening reception of the “Make Your Own Kind of Music” at The Temp. A miracle as I was fighting a migraine while viewing my migraine painting. So very meta. The show is up through this weekend. Check it out! Got our #kickassxmastree and decked the halls, plus 90% of shopping done. Erin lost 2 more teeth. Rats ate my car! My semester ended. I got an A. Printmaking B next term! Went to San Mateo last weekend with Kyle for the final Power League tournament. They came in 8th in the Gold Division. Not too shabby. And again ended higher than the 17-1s team so yay!

Kyle and I got home and then turned right…

That is some wicked bad lack of blog motivation. So, let’s catch up with young master Kyle shall we? Yes, Kyle is officially a smelly teenager. But he’s had that crap teenage attitude for ages now – he’s gifted ya know? For his birthday I set him up with a Facebook account. Now I can embarrass him in front of his friends from the comforts of my own chair. Kyle and I did light painting photos on the beach one night and then made solar prints in Santa Cruz last month. Very fun. Kyle starting having behavior problems again at school. Detentions have been bumped up to Referrals. Baby got his first suspension. So. not. cool. Behavior has now improved but his grades are in the toilet. Kyle made the 7th grade Boys Volleyball team. Of course he’s benched until he gets those grades up. I was invited to participate in the Bent Twig Art Show at Vox this month and chose Kyle as my “twig” (an…
