MALIBU - Surfers at Zuma Beach were shocked to see a mermaid, especially when the mermaid is Halle Berry!

Right. Off to Australia.

If you are on a plane to Australia today and you hear the sound of weeping coming from a nearby seat, it will be me, fighting to lose ten pages from a pretty tight script. (I bet I will lose two or three pages easily. Then the pain will start.)

I leave you with this remarkably photoshopped Russian magazine cover. (You can see the line on the left where my real hair stops and an enlarged version begins.)

What puzzles me mostly is, my hair is weird enough anyway. Why make it weirder?

(For the hair detectives amongst you: here are lots of photos of me from the same day that that Russian photo was taken. http://satu-san.livejournal.com/49214.html)

“All My Friends Are Dead”, a hilariously morbid children’s book by Avery Monsen and Jory John.

If you’re a dinosaur, all of your friends are dead. If you’re a pirate, all of your friends have scurvy. If you’re a tree, all of your friends are end tables. Each page of this laugh-out-loud illustrated humor book showcases the downside of being everything from a clown to a cassette tape to a zombie. Cute and dark all at once, this hilarious children’s book for adults teaches valuable lessons about life while exploring each cartoon character’s unique grievance and wide-eyed predicament. From the sock whose only friends have gone missing to the houseplant whose friends are being slowly killed by irresponsible plant owners (like you), All My Friends Are Dead presents a delightful primer for laughing at the inevitable.

An animated GIF of the book has become the most reblogged thing on Tumblr of all time.
