Pink is the New... [Insert Something Awesome]

Whereas someone a little less comfortable in their masculinity would keep this quiet, I gotta say this tickled my funnybone a little. Last year I got hired to draw up 250 cards in 2 WEEKS for an PC game/card hybrid thingy called Barbie iDesign. After 2.3 weeks... and a near total nervous breakdown... I called upon the help of my boys Jonny and Brad to help be finish up the last 20 or so. Why in God's name would I be telling you this? Well, other than my art being on 230 cards (albeit Barbie,) they have made a commercial for it that plays during Saturday morning cartoons. Which I think is awesome... because when I was a kid, I wanted everything I ever saw advertised on Saturday morning. Not only that, but the animated Barbie in this commercial is wearing an outfit I drew for the cards! Small victory in the path to global domination, I admit. But at least the little girls are happy, and that is something that sounds creepier than I want it to.
