The Illustrated Joey
Moo has been crafting a delightful series of illustrations this week. She’s the creator of “The Adventures of Creepy Guy and Raccoon-Eyed Girl” which is loosely based on a true story. I was honored to be drawn this morning. I don’t know … Continue reading
#ThursdayDoors — The Big Blue House
I’ve mentioned The Big Blue House a few times, because it’s a house associated with gobs of pleasant memories for me. Even more for The Mister and Drew, since before they lived there, their grandparents lived there. Over the last decade, … Continue reading
She’ll Be Bastin Big Fat Turkey When She Comes
You’re probably reading this while my parents are here. I said they could come over at a reasonable hour, like 9am. I don’t think they classify 9am as morning, but I do. *yawns* I’ve been clever, and prepared 98% of … Continue reading

I Do Not Cry Wolf!
No matter what’s going on in a scene, I always identify with the character no one believes. Like when Rachel’s date kept yelling at Ross? Poor Ross. No one listens to Ross. No one listens to their Joey, either. These … Continue reading

#ThursdayDoors — Standard Glass
You don’t get great doors today. Today, you get standard glass. I went to the library and you’re going too. You don’t have to pay my embarrassingly large fine, though, so that’s nice, right? This is my library. I can … Continue reading
Anxiety — The Summer Reveal
I don’t remember what I was going to write about today, which is a fairly frequent writer-y problem. My idea may well have been hijacked by Anxiety. My parents are coming to visit. You might think this is normal, because … Continue reading
