award!

The strangest mother & daughter picture so far, I think. And then I come home, sit down at the kitchen table with the newspaper and read about a mother with a transsexual kid. I can't read these things anymore without crying, I am on my way to become a sentimental little old lady, it gets worse and worse. I am pretty sure Piffin isn't transsexual though. The assignment was to build something to transform your body. Piffin built a pair of stilts, and crocheted a big giant dildo. Makes sense. And yes, you can imagine the dildo, it's not in the picture. Today was the presentation of all these transformations. I saw a guy dressed up as an angel, but other than that, I think she did the only sex change. And she won the best of class award! Twenty-Five dollars! (We never got money in the our day, huh) Honesty requires me to add that there also were 100 dollar awards, but she didn't win those. Still, there were far more students who didn't get any award, so I think she did pretty well. I know she did, her teacher came up to us, introduced herself, and told us she loved her. (I never had art school teachers tell my parents they loved me, huh)
