BRAINPAN LEAKAGE

But we don’t have a fire to be delightful…Still, we’ve no place to go.

Okay, I’ll stop now. Actually, the snow didn’t hit us anywhere near as hard as was predicted. It was all over by 7 AM, and we got all of about 3 inches. Soooo, I still had to take a break from working in the office to go outside and shovel the walk, driveway, etc. Even with it being only around 3 inches, it was a wet and heavy snow. Not the best thing for my back, BUT, excellent for making things. Which is the reason for this blog entry.

While I was shoveling, my wife and daughter were busy being “constructive”. Pictured below is the snow entity they created. The munchkin calls it her “Nature Buddy”…

Addendum: I’ve just been filled in on the all natural parts used in the making of “Nature Buddy”— Snow (naturally), juniper needles for the mouth, acorns for the eyes, a stick for the nose, sticks for arms, juniper branches for the hair, and an ivy necklace…

Okay, so here’s the deal…

In a previous blog entry I noted that one of my projects has been digitally archiving family photos. Well, that also includes documents and the like. So, wouldn’t you know it, while going through my mother’s personal effects, which have been stored away almost 20 years now (she crossed over in November 1987), I discovered that she had held on to some oddly bizarre things– For instance, the jpg below. This is one of my random doodles, generated around the kitchen table at her house when I was something like 21 or 22 years of age. Someone had just brought up the “Little Bunny Foo-Foo” rhyme, and for some odd reason I elected to doodle about it. (I was probably drinking at the time, go figure.)

As you can see by the “header” I was already thinking in “police procedural” type of terms.

At any rate, here it is. Random silliness from my past for you to either enjoy, or look at and say WTF?
