Duo for Yoon

yhlee asked me to make a picture for the background of her new laptop, named Duo. She asked for Duo Maxwell, a kitten, and ginkgo.

( OMG those leaves drove me insane )

In other news: at work, but not happy about it and may be leaving at lunch. Also, via baka_neko, a Japanese schoolboy cafe where you, too, can pretend you're in your own version of Ouran High School Host Club.

Posting here to remind myself

A list of overseas shipping services that will buy stuff in Japan and ship it to you for a commission. (A bit down the page. The top part is stores that ship to the US.)

YES!

Yen Press has picked up The Antique Gift Shop and it looks like volume 5 will be out in August of this year!

ETA: And One Thousand and One Nights, the source of incredibly ahistoric crack!

Kitten closeup

Just because you really can't see how well the kitten turned out in the Duo Maxwell picture at the size I posted it, here's a closeup of it. :D

( Cut for painted kitten! DIE OF THE CUTE! )

Eee!

If you read xxxHolic, you'll know what this is: a plushie pipe fox! And a tutorial for making one!

*wonders how much someone would charge to make one for her*
