mother’s day

Huh.  I guess I thought it was Mothers’ Day, but it’s really Mother’s Day?  Weird.  In any case, I hope it was happy.  I’m not sure what it means that I chose to mark the day with a drawing of my mom’s most feared animal (actually, it’s probably a toss up between bears and sharks).  Sorry, Mom.  I’m sure you’d have nothing to fear from a mother bear, though… especially if she has her cubs with her.  Oh.  I just made myself feel a little sick thinking too much about bear attacks.

I spent way too long trying to dapple these bears with sun, but it ended up looking more like mange, so I gave up for now.

    i think its mothers’ day. i mean, it’s not just a day for one mother, right? but all mothers.

    ian and i had a looooong (probably too long) talk about this on sunday, but what else would you expect from two grammar geeks?

    and happy belated mothers’ day to you. :)

    well, yeah – it should be Mothers’ Day, but it’s just plain not, according to… the world. the world should hire us as grammar consultants.
