Good Girl PUCCA flips

This is what happens to most people working in animation after a few years..... One day you wake up and suddenly, you just snap!
It makes you think: "Oh, What the hell....."

Change of air, take a Holiday. Changez d'air, prenez des vacances. Cambie de aire, tome vacaiones.

I need a holiday.....
















Paris....
So romantic.....

"Take your Plant to work" day. Jour de "Prenez votre plante au travail". Dia de "Traiga su planta al trabajo"

Today I brought CHLOE into the office, being one of them "Bring your child to work day"... Yes, in Japan there is that sort of events and activities...
At first she was not responsive, just sitting next to me loking at the computer screen.
But soon She made new friends!

Chloe, how life seems to shine for you!

CHLOE has dinner. Chloe dîne, Chloe cenando

I took out Chole for dinner.
Although she can't read, she did have a look at the menu









At first she only had some mineral water.





She then ordered the pizza Margerita.....

Dr. Fish will clean your skin!!!

For 500 yens (4.5 dollars or 3.5 euros), you can submerge your feet into a fish tank where hundreds of little fish await happily to clean your feet. Originally from Turkey, its cientific name: "Gara Rufa Obtusa". They are called Dr. Fish in Japan.
Here is a picture I took of them giving me a close pedicure.....
They eat the impurities in your skin as well as the dead skin folicules. They are also good at treating Psoriasis, a pesky skin didease with not know treatment, except this little fish.
At first it tickles so mcuh making it hard to stay put. Then you get used to the tingling bites, by then you slowly realize that you are being eaten alive by the little bastards.....
And you had paid for it!

Adopting a little Plant. Adoptant une petite plante. Adoptando una Plantita.

Today I adopted (Bought from a Plant dealer at the sunday market) a little plant that I found in Roppongi Hills, Tokyo.
I am proud to present you, The beautiful "CHLOE"!!!

She is a bit timid. Doesn't talk much.....
I think it's because she's from another country.

I will post more pictures of Chole as she addapts her self to life in hectic and fast pased Tokyo.

And unlike the other plants I raised in the past (in Canada), I won't smoke CHLOE.
I Promise!

If you pay attention, You can be happy: Sunset in Tokyo, Tomber à Tokyo, Atardecer en Tokyo.

Monday, September 18th 2006, 18:00.
Picture taken fat Roppongi Hills in Tokyo.
Today went for a walk around town and took this picture.

That afternoon as the Sun was setting the sky looked great!
The clouds turn bright orange giving the impression of bursting on fire!
And then the clouds began to turn purple.
At that moment I felt happy and wished that this perfect and peaceful moment could last forever, and then I remembered that when one really pays attention, life can be beautiful.

Bunny loves Potato. Lapin aime Pomme de Terre. Conejito ama a la Papa.

An animated love story. Coming soon!

While there's Life, there's Hope!!! Mientras hay vida, hay ezperanza!!!

Al borde: The unanswered question in life...

Oh Father up Above,

Father?

Priorities on the edge... Prioridades al borde... Priorités sur le bord...

Hey Mister, Could you please pass the ball?


And what do I get in return?


Our most sincere and profound gratitude...

"El Caminante" de Antonio Machado

Caminante, son tus huellas
el camino y nada más;
Caminante, no hay camino,
se hace camino al andar.
Al andar se hace el camino,
y al volver la vista atrás
se ve la senda que nunca
se ha de volver a pisar.
Caminante no hay camino
sino estelas en la mar

I made this strip as the whole world was boiling with soccer, all countries trying to qualify for the 2006 Worldcup　tournament in Germany. Some people would die for it.......
