Additions to the family and a Tim Burtonish sort of mood.

So one of our 3 family dogs, Sadie, got knocked up by one of the 2 other boys about a month and a half ago and just had a litter of adorable puppies yesterday! They are about the size of my palm and squeak like little mice. Here are some pictures of them.

They are great - and 600 dollars a pop.

So anyway I just finished the book Burton On Burton.

It was the revised edition that had a foreword by Johnny Depp, who explained how his experiences were working with Tim Burton. Burton has been like a lifelong inspiration for me so I had to read it after I heard how great it was and how in depth it explained his thinking/creative process behind his amazing stories and characters. It pretty much gave a biography on his life and a full analysis of every movie he's ever made as told through his words and narrated by Mark Salisbury. Explaining every detail behind conception and filming.

Now I am in a super Burton mood, after going out and buying Corpse Bride for 9.99 from Best Buy I have already watched it along with Beetlejuice and Nightmare. Be sure to see some serious Burtonesque stylized artworks in the near future. He is a genius. I want to meet him more then ever now.
