The perfect medium...

I have a few of these "one a day" calendars and I've always just ripped the previous date off and stacked them in a pile to use for notes later. Turns out, I like to make lists. But then my lists were too long to fit onto one sheet, so I'd have to use another to finish the list only to find that I'd have to add a task of looking at the first page of the list to the second page of the list. And of course, when you need it, you can only find page 2 when of course you need page 1.

So I gave up.

These things were piling up on my desk. I had a client call and ask some stupid little question and when I needed something to write on I looked around and grabbed one, doodling on it a few diagrams. When I hung up the phone I realized what a perfect little medium these sheets were for doodles.

So I started drawing up these little cartoons based on a few of the stupid, random thoughts that pop into my head throughout the day. Most of these situations involve people. I hate drawing people. I thought a circle was too bland so I went with an oval. Tad-a (is the the right way to write it?).

Enjoy

I know it's not "piece" of mind...

...but that version works so much better with my cartoon...

Oh that's right, I was starting a blog...

I'm really going to try to do this more often, at least more than once every 6 months, but like i mentioned before, there won't be a filter. A lot of this may be stupid little sayings that either fit together or don't. Maybe it will become something at some point, but I'm not counting on it.

I'm also going to try to draw more, probably based on some of these stupid comments...I'll post stuff when I can.

You know it's a bad economy when you can't even volunteer.

Arial and Times New Roman suck.

Tim Burton is weird, but a genius...Imagine if he didn't have that creative outlet...yikes.

Regina Spektor is great.

People watching is very entertaining...until you realize you are being watched as well.

Bean Stew is a HORRIBLE choice for lunch during the work week...

Money may not buy happiness, but it certainly buys piece of mind.

Fuck(tax) the rich.

At what point do you stop saying Happy New Year?

Happy New Year...
