    It totally needs a helmet attachment so that one can wear it while bicycling. That would be awesome.

    If the earth swallows up Butterwort, I’m a goner too–we’re basically in the same town. ISUS disappears, and the world…yawns. :lol:

    Btw, I just want to express my thanks for contributing to Elayne Boosler’s “Tails of Joy” on my Etsy site! :D

    Heeeeeeee, those pics are so happy-making. Congrats!

    Also, is it weird that, after years of resisting, it is Regretsy that has convinced me to finally learn photoshop?

    Congratulations again, Butterwort! But since this is a Regretsy trophy, you might want to be tested for all communicable diseases after kissing it.
    Heck, what am I saying? I’m just jealous. :)

    Butterwort will be OK but if she kisses the google eye on the right, she will be infected. Look at it.

    By the way if you haven’t read the epilogue yet you gotta read it.

    You could enlarge a pic of your glorious trophy & put it on the wall above your mantle if you’re worried about quake damage.
    Just a thought.

    I am wicked jealous, but it looks so good on your mantle that I wouldn’t wish it anywhere else.

    I do agree that it could be shown off more if it were attached to a helmet. Upon moving maybe try and find a place with a giant, light up shrine built in that you can just place it there for whimsicle pilgrims to worship.

    Please forgive the semi-drunk grammar above. I was overcome with Regretsy love and wine.
