One Last Doodle.

Well, there's a fair chance that you won't see any new doodles here for a few weeks. I know, I only started doing these this week, but once my work day ends today, I'm off for a two week vacation - during which, ironically, I'll probably be very busy.

Ironic, isn't it, that my paying job is less busy than my personal life ? And that only during my working day I actually have time to doodle ?

Feeling like crap.

I pulled an all-nighter last night, to no avail because it turned out to be completely pointless. I'm exhausted now and I feel like crap, and it served no purpose whatsoever because all that work turned out to be unneccessary. To top it all off, I seem to have screwed up some other things pretty badly.
I'm having a pretty bad day. And it just doesn't seem to pick up at all.

I doodled an appropriate drawing - pretty much what was in my head the first few hours of my working day - but I forgot to bring my camera with me so I can't 'scan' it. Add that to my shit-that-happened-today list. It's a tiny item, but it counts.

I'll add it tonight. When I'll also attempt to fix a few things that went horribly wrong today. And after that I'm crawling under the covers. If I didn't still have three working days left to this week, I'd stay there for a very, very long time.
I thought I'd throw in this little bout of honesty for anyone who's actually looking UP at me. I'm just as useless a piece of shit as any of you, folks. No better, no worse. Just someone who's trying to do the right things and who fumbles once in a while.

Edit: update: here's the image after all.

'Xcuse Me While I Doodle The Day Away.



Ok, I figured this picture posting thing out: it doesn't accept GIF files, just JPEGs. Sheesh.

Bang Bang.

Well, apparently there has been a subway bomb explosion in London just now. This on the same day that the newspapers everywhere in Europe posted the big photos of the cheerful London folk and the depressed Paris folk when the locations for the 2012 Olympics was announced. If I was Scotland Yard, I'd be asking the French where they were this morning.

Music-inspired doodle...

Quiz for slow-witted people.. Guess what song I was listening to ?

(and again, the Blogger image function is a letdown)

Sumpin' New That's Been Done Before.

It seems more and more (comic) artists are starting to publish doodles and random artwork on blogs. Or maybe that's just my own perception. And since this blog is once again slowly dying, and once again I think it's a shame that it is, I'm gonna publish the occasional doodle as well. After all, with the amount of mind-numbing meetings and phone conversations I have at work, I produce piles of this stuff. So I'll grace you all with the occasional sample.
It'll be irregular, in contrast with the daily attempt at the Word of the Day, because I don't want to feel obligated to publish anything. So don't complain if for a while there's no new doodles. Also don't complain if they're crap, I never said they'd be any good ;)

Besides, this is a nice opportunity to play around with the Blogger image upload feature. Which, so far, doesn't seem to work so well.

Edit: I give up, for now. I uploaded the image to PhotoBucket, which worked fine and had the image online within seconds. Blogger will of course get another few chances from me in the near future but so far I'm disappointed.
