Hi, Sorry, this week’s finders keepers drawing is being postponed until tomorrow I have to turn in one more chapter today to reach my 50% mark and I’ve got a long way to go. Here, have some cookies:

I’ve been thinking a lot about the symbols and images in my life. Things that are so familiar to me, they take on symbolic meaning. Like guitar chords. Today I took close ups of circus animal cookies. there is no mistaking them, even very close-up shots are so obviously animal cookies. it would be a…

Hey look, I’m a deep thinker. Your Brain’s Pattern Your mind is a multi dimensional wonderland, with many layers. You’re the type that always has multiple streams of though going. And you can keep these thoughts going at any time. You’re very likely to be engaged in deep thought – and deep conversation. What Pattern…

I snuck out and saw The New Pornographers last night at Bimbo’s 365 club. They are one of my favorite bands right now and the new album, Twin Cinema is helping me get through writing my book. I probably listen to it no less than 10 times a day. The show was a lot of…

This is an update on my post about theft of identity with Pac Bell and a nasty little collection agency called American Agencies. So I found out American Agencies and Pac Bell have had some problems. I called SBC back today. Last week they asked me to call back to give them an address to…

These little photocopied signs are pinned to all the trees in the little flower boxes than line our street. Sometimes San Francisco is great. I wish I had drawn this.

Well, let’s see. I’m pretty tired today and I made the mistake of not eating dinner until 10pm. I’m a little loopy. Thankfully Glen gave me a mini Brownie from Starbucks. I think I was looking a little peaked in class. I realised today that I had somehow managed to only take half my test…

This is the latest chalkboard painting. For those new to this, Tom and I created a blank canvas using birch plywood and chalkboard paint. It hangs in our kitchen and is a collaborative piece that we erase and change every now and then. It’s been a while since we changed it. Don’t ask me what…

I just discovered that my book is listed for sale on Barnes and Noble and Amazon. I was going to wait to post a link because there’s no cover for it yet, but I can’t stand it any more. I must show you! Here’s my book on Barnes and Noble. I’d like to tell you…

I’m so happy! My first email from someone who found one of my Finder’s Keepers drawings. They found the cake slice yesterday. I’m so happy I could cry. Seven is now my lucky number. Here’s there email: Happy birthday! And remember, birthdays are good for you; the more you have, the longer you live. Keep…

Sorry Originally uploaded by angrypirate. Sorry for the mariah carey post. I’m ok now. I made inari. It’s 11pm and I’m done for the day. I don’t know how much I wrote today, but it was a lot. I’m all googly eyed from looking at the screen all day. Thanks for caring, all of you…

Someone is still spamming other people’s blog comments using my url. I don’t know what to do about it except appologize. I can’t keep someone from typing in my url into someone else’s comments fields. I seem to be going through a spell of karmic payback. I thought I was karma-debt free but I guess…

Here’s number 7. It’s a week late but heck. that’s pretty good considering my life right now. It’s of my birthday cake. You might remember the photo from last week. I’m obsessed with this cake right now. Funny because I’m sick and tired of Wayne Theibaud painting cakes and I wish he’d move on to…

Here is my first cow skull with black and white conte on gray paper. the second one is because I’m a show off and I finished my first drawing early in class. It’s white conte on black velvet paper. I could get into this velvet stuff.

Picture if you will, one of my closest friends from high school and ten years after. She becomes a CPA, I become a computer geek. I move to another country. I entrust her with my tax returns. She doesn’t want to sign her name as the preparer because she doesn’t want to have to file…
