When I get down, distraught, or a little edgy in life, and I sometimes catch myself spinning in dizzy loops despite all I've learned...or is it remembered....or is it created?...shit I'm doing it again!
Ahem...
When I get into one of those loops. I look to one thing, that reminds me that it really all is OK. That all of everything is a fun, loving, creative joke.
That one thing is the wild Okapi:

Long ago kicked out of the Zebra club for being deemed too 'crazy' (and those Zebras are a wild bunch I can tell you), and no longer allowed to 'hang' with it's Giraffe cousins, the wild Okapi tried to make friends with horses, lamas, and even kangaroos, but none would associate with them, even though they were all quite a bit curious.
The wild Okapi, which was sad at first, finally said, "chicchhh chew chew CLICCKKK chomp neeeeeeehhhh," which translates roughly into "fuck this bullshit, I'm living life on my terms."
So if things start to get a little frantic and you feel your inner peace starting to slip, remember it will all be OKapi.
Love, Kindness, & Creativity Rule Eternally,

Habitat - They live in temperate forest and rainforest.

The Numbat is a unique pouchless marsupial. It is a small animal with a reddish brown coat which blends from darker shades on the back to light on the stomach. Across the back are prominent white bands, and it has a bushy tail. Each animal can be identified by its individual markings. The Numbat is the mammal emblem of Western Australia.

Hmmm. Too hairy for me. The cockeyed pissed off fish looks like someone I know.
I won't say who.

This reminds me of an incident at last year's dragoncon. I was in the lobby of the hyat, and this guy.. who seemed so innocent at first asked me and my friend "hey, would you like to see my drawings?"
And sure, he seemed pretty innocent so I was like "sure, why not?" I went to open up this binder which was supposedly full of innocent things.. The cover, however was ominously labeled "18 and over, please"
I opened the binder with anticipation.. I was hoping for some artistic expressions.. what I got was.... FURRY PORN!!
the vomiting ensued, and then I killed everybody around me just because I could.
