They still had the record for when they framed my Hutch drawing by Marion so they were able to repeat the same mat and moulding. Photos when I get it back.

enednoviel, both ladies who were at the counter were extremely complimentary - said the art was very very good, they were impressed! Not a word was said about the subject matter, heh. Just quiet regard. Yay! Due back to me October 3, I believe they said.

I'm hoping it's saying something positive that I can show that drawing to my son and his reaction isn't "oh, mom, that's two GUYS", and instead only recognizes the artist who drew it.

And then he turned around and said he wanted a PINK hoodie from school. Uh....

My kids also adore a particular band that Marion turned me on to - Poets of the Fall. They particularly like "More":

You know it isn't particularly funny
Killjoy walks in just when it's turning sunny
Killjoy lives like it's all about the money
All about the money, all about the money
All about the money, all about the money

And lastly (maybe), here's a fic rec. ancastar recced it last month on crack_van, and this was my first chance to read it. Exactly the Contents of One. If you like, or have been curious about angsty!Hutch, this is a good story to read. It's not super long, and is broken up into nice snack-size sections.

And if you want a longer fic, one that will take you a nice afternoon of reading to get through, there's racric's latest: All That Glitters. Case story, true feelings, lies, and sex, baby.
