Adapt


Okay, first the nasty alien that answered the front door,
then Auntie Faye's three headed boy friend from Staten Island,
blue milk at dinner and now this little green boy inside
the vase. Tammy was beginning to rethink her decision to spend
the summer at Blooak Side Manor. It would be hard for her
to "Adapt".
He hee he!

    Talk about diversity. That hotel has all kinds! Tammy's face says it all...I'm sure she's second guessing her decision to check in! HA! I think the nasty alien that answered the front door would've had me adapting my way right on down the street!

    OH! But now she can write a book of her adventures and sell millions! Maybe she can get some brilliant illustrator like....hmmm...some chick named Nessa or something like that to illustrate her book. Huh? Huh? Whatcha think?

    Oh, what comes out of your mind and your fingertips just tickles me silly! And I say a three headed boyfriend is 3 times the sweet nothings and 3 times the kisses! Play the field without going anywhere. Yeehaw!

    You are just the QUEEN of expressions! I could truly learn a thing or two, (or three) from you. Love the illo and especially the pose and face of that little gal.
    Thanks for sharing.

    Her expression tells the whole story (well without the alien and 3-headed boyfriend) but you can tell a bunch of other stuff has happened before she encountered this guy.

    From the expression on her face, I rather suspect Blooak Side Manor will have more difficulty adapting to her!

    She looks like mischief incarnate.
