Thanks to Andi, coloringpages101.com and my birthday present to myself, here is the mandala I colored last night. It has a real steampunk feel to me.

I went crazy and bought the 132 pencil set...which is a little disappointing for a couple of reasons...but now I'm just in lurve with the colors.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Yeah, you are right there is real science being done in Evolutionary Psychology. Unfortunately we have a strong genetic tendency to go for the just-so stories ...

Yeah, OK I do go for obvious punchlines.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Bonny, did I miss your birthday? I'm sorry if so, and congratulations to us on the presence of you! We're very glad you're here--in a meta on-the-earth way as well as a more intimate, on-the-board way.

In ridiculous me-news, I was taking my morning meds, had just put the pills in my mouth and was surprised by a sneeze. I *just* managed to spit the pills into my palm before a whole string of sneezes erupted. Thank goodness we were spared from a barrage of flying pills across the room!

Aw Bev, thanks! My birthday is Monday. Along with Clarence Darrow, Christian Slater and Conan O'Brien. We are all a little 'off.'

This one is a prime number, which is cool, but of no other import. Though I'm promised great weather, which is nice, compared to today!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

bonny, that mandala is beautiful.

And I continue to be amazed and pleased at the good we've gotten at the group home from coloring mandalas together. We had a wonderful time together a couple evenings ago - three of the individuals who live there were sitting around the dining table, along with me, coloring, having a lovely peaceful time, sharing markers, crayons, colored pencils, no arguing, no fussing, no bother. I can't think of more than one other time in the five years I have worked with them when those three people sat down to do something together (other than eating meals). A couple of them will do stuff together, but put all three of them together, and that is a recipe for tension, at best. It was one of those "now this is why I do this work" moments.

On a side note, it's much more "age appropriate" than coloring cheap dollar store coloring books - of course that is not of prime importance to me or to the people who live there, but it sure looks good on paper.

Happy birthday, Drew! I hope it's filled with pleasurable things.
