Yay! My school-related workload has been reduced to the point that I can do stuff again! Stuff like, say, design Cuddly Critters, play with my guinea pig, go to the zoo, and volunteer at the prairie. It's awesome.
I'll have to read two novels over the summer, but One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest has far fewer pages than last year's combination of Welcome to the Monkey House and Fast Food Nation. Last summer, my school began a school-wide summer reading program that requires all students to read the same book. The book of choice was A Long Way Gone, which is sad, uplifting, and purposeful, but frankly, most students (including myself) couldn't get into it. This summer, we're all reading Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman, which should be more interesting, considering that the author is Neil Gaiman.
And really, who doesn't like Neil Gaiman?
But aside from the reading, I should have a fair amount of time to be rather productive. I plan to make a few plushies, reread the Dirk Gently books, watch The Joy of Painting on Mondays and Wednesdays and Wyland's show is on Mondays and Thursdays, and not go to summer school, among other things.
But the school year isn't over yet. I still have to make a bottle rocket and mousetrap car before the break arrives.
On a very different note, Zazzle has some new products! This video should give you a hint as to what it is:
If you haven't figured it out yet (hopefully, you have) they're Doodle speakers!
These speakers have been getting pretty good reviews. At least, Zazzle sellers say they're pretty good.
Here are a few of my speakers:
All of the Cuddly Critter designs are also on speakers!
The speakers are available in my Zazzle store.
Happy summer!
