Ball of ants

No, I'm not going to talk about all the ants invading my kitchen right now.

Do you ever talk to someone really high up in their league and get a little nervous?

I know I do. I was laying in bed thinking about this, and it was kind of a trippy thought...but this is how I get rid of that fear: I think of the earth, the big gorgeous ball slowly rotating in space, glimmering with beauty , and then I think of humans as ants or tiny specs, and I think of myself HUGE hugging that ball with ants on it...and whoever I'm talking to is obviously one of those ants. It's funny, but when I think of people in that way, all connected, all ONE, I really don't feel too scared anymore. Life when you think about it is kind of pointless, but that's why theres no real reason to fear. Love that little ball of ants, they need it, they're a ball of ants for gods sake!

Nosebleed!

Today I had the biggest nosebleed I've ever had in my life! A friend suggested what I do to get rid of it via Facebook. Bring your head forward and plug your nose for about 5 minutes. I did that, but I think I did it wrong because soon afterward I felt like blacking out! It was WEIRD! I jus sat in my chair with a cold sweat and dizziness to the EXTREME! I could taste the blood trickling down my throat which made me feel sick...ECK!

So that's what happened to me today.

it sucked.

A few things

Now that I've added a few gadgets to the Slimecat blog, I feel like I need to post something new...

hmmmm...something new...

Ah! Here's a MAJOR thing! :

Have a look at Tentacle Tarte Studios I've started with my friend Amanda Nightingale-Terwoord!

Being the ditz I am sometimes... I didn't really update about the business on the Slimecat Blog.

Tentacle Tarte is our name and we do Graphic design, Illustration, Toy design, and even some baking!

At the moment I'm working to get a logo finished and sharp looking for Yggdrasil's Child.

Yggdrasil's Child, "Natural handmade soaps, candles, body products, and hemp jewellery"

I haven't tried any of the products yet, but one of my friends says they're spectacular. Her name is Sarah Paulette Bongers, she's a journalist, and she kindly wrote a review for Yggdrasil's Child.

Getting back to Tentacle Tarte, we have a show coming up in Kitchener, April 16th, called the Bloomin' Earth Festival, located at the Kitchener Market! There'll be tonnes of local handmade artisans selling their goods. Being a market day, we're anticipating a packed festival. Let's all hope for a nice sunny day!

We're focusing on toys at the festival, here's a picture of our handmade toys called Dinosquares :D

There's kind of a funny story behind this picture^^^^

Back to work now!
