Imaginary Friend or The Tiger Within

What would you do, if you saw this in your attic:


He's real...  oh yes, he's very real, and apparently he has the keys to all the locks.

Don't bother running...  he's a tiger, and he rides a bike.

What Do You See?

I take random pictures with my phone at random times, and it seems to me that the images always appear differently on the phone's screen than it did in real life.

Take this image for example:

Now, it might be quite obvious to some of you that it's a negative of my legs in the car...  but image that the image is only 1" x 1" big, or view it from far away.  Now what does it look like?

Or take a look at this one....

This was something I stared at almost everyday for around 7 years.  It's a picture of the mirror in the bathroom at work from sitting on the toilet.  It's probably obvious now that I said it, but had you not known, it'd be open to interpretation.

My recommendation to you, is take as many pictures as you can, from every angle you can.  You never know what you might end up with.

Boredom Opens Doors To Creativity

I'm in class...  a lot, and my attention span is very limited. (Thanks TV).  Anyways, the longer I am left with my own disturbing thoughts, I find myself needed an escape from, well, myself.  Being that I am in class, I'm not about to walk out.  So I start filling in boxes, making weird shapes and occasionally making something kind of interesting.

Here are a few of the more interesting things.  They start off as nothing, and end up...  well, as nothing, but at least it looks a little better.

And yes, I already know that I'm not even close to an being an artist nor creative.  Which makes it even more interesting what comes out.



There are more from last semester that make me laugh, but those two are recent and already scanned.  I'm too busy with classes to sit and scan more right now, but not busy enough to keep me from posting this now.

But I will later.

Fridge Scrabble

Ok, so my parents bought some of those magnetic refrigerator letter for my nephew, and every couple days someone tries to make a sentence, words, etc with the letters for someone else to find.

The letters available are every letter in the alphabet, but only once.  A-Z, no repeating letters, which makes for some very creative messages.

I'm starting a series I like to call Fridge Scrabble.  Every time I walk into my parents house, and there is a new arrangement of letters, I'm going to take a picture and post it.  Here are the ones I had in my phone at the time of writing this:





There will be more.  Oh yes...  There will be more.

Any ideas on better words or sentences that I can write?  I'll write them and publish the picture with credit to you.

Ready for the next episode?
