intervention

we had to have an intervention with my buddy Derek
(who just happens to be my cosmic brother)

he drinks coffee all wrong

he only drinks coffee when he's doing a design job.

he's abusing and neglecting coffee
what about the down time?
what about time in between jobs?
THE COFFEE STILL NEEDS YOU!

he wasn't even thinking of the coffee's feelings...
c'mon Derek!

get your life together

drink coffee everyday or don't drink it at all!

3am to 7:30am

I have no idea why I woke up at 3am today..
I ended up staying up until 7:30am

a four and a half hour window..
THANKS TO COFFEE GHOST

yep, coffee ghost once again reared his ugly, haunted head
I drank 3 cups at 3am..

I was dragging my way through the rest of the day

I was going to have the coffee ghost exorcised..
but, that would take finding a convenient priest..
they seem to be really busy on Sundays

I'm getting used to coffee ghost
I get a good scare every morning, he makes the walls will drip with phantom blood and there is the occasional possession, but it's worth it... he has a good sense of humor and always makes me laugh.

long live coffee ghost!

if journals could talk

I was invited to this group on flickr called
"if journals could talk"

My sketchbooks are full of stream of conscious work
writing, notes, dreams.. whatever

I'm super inspired to put a bunch of this stuff up now.


if journals could talk (more)

another friendly cat

it was good to see this little four legged guy
keeping it real out on the streets



he was really distracted

I think he's one of those ghost chasing cats
he was all over the place

you can't contain this beast
he's a wild animal, he can't be tamed or reasoned with...
and he likes it that way

I got a couple pets in, called it good and moved on

cat tongue

little known fact:

during its very short time as a wee kitten....
a cat will have a small square of sandpaper superglued to its tongue


no one really knows why

it's just the way it is

hand painted material

the shitty refillable piece of shit pens that I usually use to draw up stuff on the blueprint paper..
ARE COMPLETE HUNKS OF SHIT!

they dry up, freeze up, gunk up... uhhhhhh!!!! leak out of sides and get ink all over the damn place.

those pens suck



these new ones are painted with brushes.. I can rely on brushes..
they don't let me down (unlike the garbage pens)

it's for the best though, I'm liking the brush stuff.

I also like getting mad at the pens



I really like getting angry at inanimate objects
I'm not kidding either.. I really think it's fun

paint applied to a wall and potluck stuff

My buddy Jason had some people over to his place tonight to paint on a couple walls in his room.
It was awesome and I had fun hanging out with some friends I haven't seen for awhile.

Jason lives at SODO massive, Wednesday night is also potluck night.


I'm not that good at bringing stuff to potlucks.

I ended up bringing a 12-pack of Rainier and a bag of Doritos
(with 25% more chip-action)


The photo has a six pack of Budweiser, but I ended up stopping at a convenience store and grabbing some Rainier instead.

good times!

(I'll post more progress photos soon)

$3.17 bill.. let's get it started

all bills come in standard dollars.. 1, 5, 10, 20, 100.. whatever.

kind of boring

I know for a fact, a $3.17 bill would make spending money so much more fun.

imagine being in a convenience store..
you have a tall can, a Twix.. what else do you add to make $3.17?

$3.17 bill makes spending money fun and improves math skills.

implement the $3.17 bill for a better America.

let's do this! NOW!

where the fuck are all these metal coat hangers coming from?

I haven't owned a single metal coat hanger in years,
I don't even think metal coat hangers are being manufactured or sold anywhere anymore..
but, one things is for sure..

if keys are locked inside a car.. a metal coat hanger will magically appear out of thin air.

Every time I see someone trying to get into their locked car.. COAT HANGER!!
Where do they come from?

Are they sent from the future and just appear during times of need?
Are they secretly superheroes showing up to save the day?

WTF?
(that's right I said it.. WTF!!?)

The only time I ever see a metal coat hanger is when it's being shoved into that area on a car door where the glass meets the rubber seal.. awkwardly inching its way to the door handle.

Don't get me wrong.. I think metal coat hangers are great...

I just don't understand how they consistently show up every time keys are locked in a car.
