I think just about everyone fears death at some level. For many it is the uncertainty of what happens. For others it is the worry of what will happen to others when they are gone. Whatever your fears are surrounding death, try imagining him wearing Harry Potter glasses.
It makes him seem almost cute.
I guess the big news of the day is that I was freshly pressed by wordpress yesterday!
… actually, I guess that makes it the big news of yesterday…
Anyway, I was shocked/amazed/unable-to-believe that one of my own little sticky note drawings was sitting on the wordpress homepage. What a trip!
My wife was almost as excited as I was. She immediately sat to to email her brother. When I looked over her shoulder I read:
“Guess who was just freshly squeezed on wordspot!”
It’s nice to know she’s paying attention.
Am I the last person on the face of the earth that is not on facebook? I’m starting to feel like it. Apparently, many people even have facebook pages for their pets (click here to read the article on CNN).
Wow.
Frankly, I don’t think I’m missing out on much.
It’s post number 150 and it’s time for some blog stats!
57 countries and I only had to search google for one of them. Sorry Brunei Darussalam, I didn’t even know you existed until today.
I know I posted a snowman joke just last week, but we finally had a few inches of snow here. The weather has been either too cold or too windy for almost a month. It was (almost) a relief to shovel the driveway last night.
Our family didn’t have a TV that used a remote control until I was in sixth grade. Before that, we actually had to get up and turn the dial to change the channel. Luckily, we didn’t have to do it very often because our antenna only picked up three stations.
My 4 year old daughter is a clever, smart, and overall incredibly intelligent child. She knows her letters and sounds, can read and write simple words, and has even madeup some pretty funny jokes all by herself.
However…
Every time she gets ahold of my binoculars she insists on holding them backwards (so that things seem far away instead of closer) AND THEN she walks into things because they look so far away. Every. Single. Time.
This guy would spend a fortune on hand sanitizer…
I think the number one question I’ve been asked is, “why is everyone always frowning in your drawings.” My answer… not everyone. Check out the smile on that snowman.
Granted, he will soon be utterly consumed by flames – but hey, let’s focus on the positive.
We recently looked at our long-term finances and found that when I retire we would be poor. We spent some time making up a budget for our current and future expenses. Now we can look forward to years of carefully scrimping and saving with the final goal of enjoying retirement in a slightly less-poor fashion.
*sigh*
You may notice that the rightmost portion of the picture has been chopped off by my scanner (the final letter in the first line is supposed to be a “D” in case you can’t tell). I would have re-scanned the image, but it is Friday night and I have other things to do. I don’t know what those things may be, but I do know they don’t include spending time re-scanning this sticky note. Have a great weekend!
Alternate caption = He was just relieved it wasn’t a suppository.
Our nine month old is teething (again).
The last few nights she has woken up almost hourly. I mention this only because the dark circles around my eyes are currently even more impressive than those in the picture.

I like to draw. Three years ago, I started drawing on little yellow sticky notes. These are the little pictures I like to draw. If you want to contact me you can leave a comment or send an email to: inkjotcomics@gmail.com
