and totally not relating to anything, tonight i swear i saw a bat. me and doug walked up the hill and then he decided to knock some papayas out of a tree (thisclose to midnight, mind you...) with a wooden pole that looked like something you play pool with, except, like, 10x bigger. i saw something fly above my head and it was way bigger than a moth, but way smaller than an owl. i've heard there are bats here but have never seen one with my own two eyes. until now...
i googled it and found out it's called the Hawaiian hoary bat or Ope'ape'a and i like 'em because they supposedly eat bugs. this is what it looks like:

oh, and while i'm being random, how about a button giveaway!!! i'm going with megan's suggestion, so leave your name and which one you want and i will pick a winner out of a hat on Sunday evening. and then you will get what you've always wanted -- a button (?!) of your very own!!! (to do whatever your little heart desires with). sounds lame, wow, yeah, a BUTTON. i got a BUTTON, people. a BUTTON (that line totally reminded me of Sandra Bullock in Speed when she said that line about the gum on her seat...totally random, i know...). woop. woop. i guess i'll put it on a rubberband for a cute ponytail holder just like i saw Stephanie wearing (that i guess Melissa made?). leave a comment and check back here Monday morning to see if you won! and if you only knew how easy (and fun) it was to make your own...some of you do. i need to go to bed and stop rambling already. g'night.

Wow! you have some good fabrics friend. actually would you mind telling me what the fabrics are for the ones I listed? I would like to look at them full scale.
also i've been meaning to tell you that the stuff i put behind the embroidery is a mystery to me. I was looking through the wall of interfacing at fabric mart kaneohe, for it because I have seen it at shirts and stuff from stores with embroidery on it, and then I saw it. I just grabbed it and hoped it would work.
It looks like silky garments almost but thinner and it has a bumpy side that you can iron on.
and yes, we should actually hang out one of these days eh!? it had been a while.
actually you know what? I think i want the first or the third one from the top row more...i told you i cant decide! :)
am i weird for thinking the bat is kinda cute ...
