Relay For Life tonight!

Above: My daily doodle. I try to make a habit of doodling every day, totally for fun. Good for the soul and to make sure I never take my drawing so seriously that it loses its joy. The illustration contains several possible stories, both from the little girl's and the monster's perspective, so I've called it "The Story."

Heh, sorry for creeping some of you out with my transformed faces yesterday. Aleksej has pointed out that Google has made the face recognition feature official:

"Seem to be official - there is a radio button group in Advanced search:
Content types Return images that contain (o) any content ( ) news content ( ) faces."



As I've mentioned in an earlier Blathering, I love trying out new lip balms. I picked up the one above at our local Pharmaplus to take with me to Relay For Life tonight. I was intrigued by the cool packaging but especially by the bizarre "pure water flavor" description. Why advertise a flavorless taste?

Trying it out, however, reveals that their "pure water flavor" is vaguely sweetish. Not bad, really. I like the small size, making it more convenient to slip into a pocket.

And huge thanks, by the way, to all those who are sponsoring me in Relay For Life (7 pm to 7 am tonight!). I'm getting new pledges every day, and (with your help) have raised $1490 for the Canadian Cancer Society, nearly three times my original goal. Your support means a great deal to me; THANK YOU SO MUCH. I know that some of you have also bought luminaries in honour of cancer survivors and loved ones lost.

No rain forecast for today/tonight, yay! I was prepared to walk in the rain, but would rather not, at least not for 12 hours. :-)



Speaking of squirrels, Dave Weingart reminded me of this great squirrel story. :-)
