The Pancake Chronicles
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
C.S. Lewis - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
"Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious. But I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why."
Rusty Ryan - Ocean's Twelve
"I shiver, therefore I am."

This is way harder than the old woman/young woman or the two faces/one vase images! I think you'll have to sketch it in for me!

I see a snow koala. Does that count? ;)
Eep! That's what I MEANT to say! A snow KOALA. Egad.
Love it - I see it there on the patio like a friend waiting... :)
YES! I see the koala! I vote that he be named Petey!
Nancy
Em - as if to say "come out and play!"
Nancy - Petey he shall be!
Actually, I was referencing Schlock Mercenary. A space ship named Post Dated Check Loan (use the initials and it sounds like "Petey"), built by a koalazoid race with both xenophobic and homicidal tendancies. Trust me, it's hilarious when you read the comics in order!
Nancy
Hahaha! Nancy, you ROCK. I have almost no idea what you just wrote but I want to. Anyone named Schlock is someone I'm interested in knowing about. What's the first comic?
www.schlockmercenary.com, just go to the beginning of the archive. You can do Meet the Mercenaries or skip to the first story, either works!
Nancy
Yes, I see him! Oh, I love looking for pictures in clouds and things. It never grows old!

I can see 3 faces. I didn't actually see the Koala at first. I did see the panda, then the other face and I finally just saw the koala!
Kel
