Hello World

Well, that's how it starts, right? "Hello world." Always. I'm sure God said it after he created it, the world said, "How do you do?" and they both sat down for tea wearing funny hats. I'm sure it was one of those children's tea sets, and the world felt awkward holding its pinky out while sipping from an unusually small cup. I bet Mr. Bear and a headless doll were sitting around the table, too.

So, to keep this brief, as you can see I'm attempting to do with that opening paragraph, this is my blog o' doodles. I liken it to something that Mike Krahulik (AKA Gabe) said over at Penny Arcade: STRETCHING EXERCISES.

It's easy for me to become stagnant, but there's something that happens when I pick up a pen or pencil and there's a blank page, and it's not usually pretty. I might doodle a 3D box, or I might scratch out some undiscovered creature. Either way, once I do it, I feel like doing more. So this is a blog of stretching exercise doodles. It may be on a clean white sheet, the margin of a notebook, or some frowned upon scribbling at work. Either way, it a way to kick my but into gear to get Take It Like A Husband back underway.

Here's my first sampling:

Happy Little Doodle Bug


It's just a doodle bug. Or rather, it's a bug I doodled. Nothing special, but I did it, and my mom would put it on the refrigerator if my dad let her.

Well, here's hoping for more. Well, I'm hoping for more. I don't know about you...
