Finally got a chance to add some submissions today. Before today I haven't been able to get my evil IE to work at DA from work, which is where I do most of my submissions. But thanks to the miracle for Firefox 3 I finally get to add some Deviations!! Most of them are stuff that a lot of you may have seen before. To those of you not on the TRL or MAIL Forums they'll seem new. I'm currently trying to build up stock for an (obscenely small) artist's market this weekend, but I've got some more really cool design ideas in mind...one of which I don't think I've seen anywhere before. I'll post more when I get it.

What's up in my life? Well, the boy (my son Joshua Otis) will be turning 3 on July 2nd. Potty training is going extremely well. He only gets pull-ups now at night when he sleeps. He has mastered the art of "pee-pee in the potty" during the day and is quickly moving towards a mastery of "poo-poo in the potty" too. Now if I can just get him to wipe his own butt....HA! Much props to wifey though. With me working as much as I do she has had to bear the brunt of the responsibility for potty training. She has done a excellent job!! I am so lucky to have a wife who is happy as a stay-at-home mom. Now weaning off of the binky has been an entirely different battle, but bless her soul she's been able to wean him down to only getting it at night. We've convinced him that on his third birthday he'll have to send the binky to The Binky Fairy so that she can give it to a baby who needs it. We've been reinforcing the story daily, and have included a letter from The Binky Fairy thanking him for the upcoming binky, a special envelope addressed to The Binky Fairy (who happens to live at my folks address) for him to send it in and a going away party for the binky on the night of his birthday. I think this might actually work, LOL. Work is good. Gas prices suck, but I've been able to increase the fuel economy in my SUV by about 17% by not driving faster than 60mph (folks on the interstate between home and work loooove that, LOL). May not seem like much, but it'll end up saving me almost $100/month in gas.
