apartment deemed perfect

tonight, when i got my self all ready for bed and finished brushing my teeth and shut off the light in my room i noticed the most perfect thing. my room has a window that gets moonlight.. a perfect moonlight window impression that drapes across my bed. not so high that it blinds me but close enough that i can shuffle down and see the moon if I want.
it was like in a movie, but better than that because it was real.

what I do




many people ask what I do.
I tend to fudge around and try to explain everything. Truthfully I am part of a great group at Toronto General Hospital called Peri-operative Interactive Education (PIE). I work with two other amazing medical illustrators and have a great boss who lets us take our projects in interesting directions. But enough of me fudging around... you can find about all of this at our new website!

ps. I'm famous!

Colbert for President

some announcements...
1. Colbert appeared on the daily show and mused about running for president.. falling short of announcing his run:



2. After, on the same network, but apparently a "more prestigious show" (his own), he announced his candidacy... in south carolina..



amazing!

motivational posters


I've been wanting to outfit my new place with art work. These two posters jumped out at me. maybe because they are directed at the viewer. They are both from companies in the states-- I don't know if the post family (stay up) ships to Canada but 20x200 (you're impossible) doesn't yet - maybe that's a good thing.

oh my! that IS awesome


welcome to my new favorite shopping blog. Not only is it well written but it full of great things .. almost all of which i want. people looking for ideas for me for christmas.. look no further.

thought I'd show off my latest knitting projects...
I'm pretty happy with how they turned out.
The top one is the cable hat I've been working on for about a year (ready just in time for fall) and the bottom is a super warm snail hat i started when mary was up visiting.. It was super fast!
