How I Survive Corporate Meetings

(Originally posted on the website Heron Flight)

I have a tendency to doodle while in meetings at work. Sometimes I do it just to keep myself awake. Sometimes I do it because most meetings are torturously BORING.

Sometimes… I get caught. My manager saw this first picture below in a meeting yesterday and asked, “Is that drawing of anyone in particular?”

It was tempting to say, “Not really. But you inspired the dumb look in his eyes!”

I swear that most meetings are unnecessary and contribute to the overall dumbing-down of our society. These doodles are proof of just how dumb some of us are becoming.

(If you can decipher my handwriting, you may find tidbits of oddity here and there.)

Driving to Work

(Originally posted on the website Heron Flight)

Here’s a little photo project I did while driving to work in the rain. I set the windshield wipers on the slowest setting. I took a photo after every time the wipers moved (about every 20 seconds). I missed a few shots while going around curves. And I accidently fumbled the camera and missed a shot. But I got most of them. The first one was taken at 8:39 AM. The last one was taken when I pulled into the parking garage at work at 9:13 AM. There are 87 photos that span the distance of my 22 mile commute.
