“i wanted to be a housewife…” — tomeko
“主婦になりたかってん、うち…”　—　留子

this was done with a black paper♥mate ballpoint pen. it’s been awhile since i did a line drawing like this.

i also recorded myself drawing, while listening to daniel wang’s “let’s go to mars”. my fave. it’s part of a mix CD paul made me that i listen to all the time.

right at the end of the video, you can see the desk where i do most of my drawings. yoda and emo philips are watching me.

i uploaded my video to youtube. you can search my name there and find this video, plus the one i made for inseparable.

happy afternoon drawing :)

i’d never seen him live before, but i’d heard his brilliant LP, “E=MO2″ so i was pretty excited about it. and it was a perfect timing, too: his show was a day before my birthday.

the show was part of the annual comedy festival and was held at a high school auditorium. paul and I sat right up front seats so we could capture everything EMO. two other comedians opened for him. they were funny too, but all i could think of was “EMO! EMO! EMO! EMO!”

when EMO finally appeared on stage, he was so funny i almost fell off my chair. i love his timing and his weird intonation. he did some new sketches and some of the old classics.

after the show, EMO hung around in the lobby, chatting with his fans. some people brought copies of his original LP for EMO’s autograph. paul has a copy, but unfortunately we forgot to bring it. so we bought the CD version and EMO signed one of his promotional postcard for me. he was so gentle and kind. he called me a “hot mama”, but i think he says that to all the girls…
