More pics from our dinner. It was sooo good, ate more turkey last night and nearly finished the apple pie. Next week it will be all about working out every day.

Thanksgiving was great. I cooked a 19 lb turkey, stuffing, and fresh cranberry sauce. Tony & Axel brought 2 delicious pies, one apple and one pumpkin plus fruit salad. Tony made mashed potatoes & yams! Greg brought an entire box of logs so we could keep warm by the fireplace.

I've been taking pictures for rawfish.tv, a project Jason & I are putting together. I'm using (finally!) my extensive collection of Japanese toys and photographing them with my new camera. I included the Mc Nuggets because they're just so bizarre. Processed chicken deep fried and given a personality. The site is about things Japanese, toys, candy, sushi, etc etc. Looking forward to Thanksgiving, Tony + Axel are coming for dinner, it's gonna be fun!

Tony and Axel took us out for dinner at Andalu for my birthday! The food was so good, dessert was even better. Tony gave me a very cool design book called IdNpro 2001. I've been looking through it, very inspirational. I am still playing with my new camera. Getting alot of "ghosty" images but they look great in black and white. Looking forward to the weekend, I am so exhausted. Much thanks + love to Tony & Axel!

I spent most of the day experimenting with my new camera.


On my way to Safeway I saw this mushed pumpkin which I thought was cute and sad. The skeleton people are on the wall in our bathroom. I plan to post more experiments soon!

My first pictures with the Coolpix 775 from dinner at Maya last night. I think they came out well, kind of warm and moody. Jason looks ghostly but it's cool.

I love my new camera, it's really easy to use.

Today is my 34th birthday.

It was action-packed. First I opened my big gift from Jason, a Coolpix 775 camera which I love! Next, we went to see Monsters Inc. at the Metreon, it was very cute. After that, off to Minna Street gallery to see Mark Ryden in person and have him sign his new book, which rocks. While we were waiting in line, one guy kept bending over to talk to Mark, each time exposing part of his butt crack. I got a pic of this, but missed the major exposure. It was funny yet disturbing. I was so nervous meeting him, I forgot what I wanted to say to him!

After Minna St, we walked to Maya for an excellent dinner. I had lobster and shrimp and a Guava margarita which I nursed most of the night. I loved it, and I loved my Bday!!!
