I found this really fun and cool site called "Translation Party"! You put in any phrase you like in English and the site translates it to Japanese and back again until you get a really funny translation! ~ An ode to Google translation which isn't always so accurate! ;)
I put in one of my favorite sayings: "Well behaved women rarely make history!" and this is what I got...
well behaved women rarely make history
into Japanese: よく女性の行儀のほとんど歴史を作る
back into English: Most of the well-behaved women make history well
back into Japanese: よく女性の行儀のほとんどは歴史を作る
back into English: Most well-behaved women make history
back into Japanese: 最もよく女性の歴史を作る行儀
back into English: Best-behaved women make history
back into Japanese: 最高の女性の歴史を作る行儀
back into English: Best-behaved women make history
Equilibrium found!
You've done this before, haven't you.
See? It's a hoot! Try it yourself on your own favorite phrase!

Saturday Arts in OKC!
Hello again everyone!
My last post gave you the "down low" on a totally groovy opening at Istavan gallery on Friday night. But, if you can't make it, or, you would LOVE to saturate yourself in the arts this weekend, here's another fab art thing to do on Saturday night!
This soiree benefits Youth and Family Services which seeks to make a difference in the lives of young people through increased confidence, supporting family life, and furthering community. From counseling to temporary residential services, Youth and Family Services offers a variety of services for troubled youth and their families.
This is a one weekend art exhibit featuring the art of 26 super fab artists! The artist reception is Saturday night, August 15th, which is free and open to the public, and you are all invited!
There's no requirement that you purchase anything to attend, although it is for a spectacular cause!
The Mission
Where: Norick Art Center, Oklahoma City University
Street: NW 26th St. and Blackwelder Ave., OKC (on the campus of Oklahoma City University!)
When: 6p.m. - 8p.m.
Hope to see you all there!

New Year, New Location, New Stuff to do!
Hello Everyone!
I'm so terribly sorry we have been remiss in posting but the world has gotten in the way of late... so very much to tell... and, I will, over the coming weeks! However, I thought I'd drop a quick note and say I am starting a new adventure today... I'm meeting with a brand new book club in my brand new city... I'm really very nervous as I only know one of the girls and I am sort of walking in blind... but, she is so much fun and so sweet I'm sure it will be GREAT! (I'm practicing "The Secret" --- can you tell?!) haha! I'll post again tomorrow and let you all know how it goes! Wish me luck!
