Laundry not Church
My ride to church cancelled last night. I usually take that as a sign from God that I’m needed more at home for the day. I would have liked to have slept in but my youngest wanted a bath in the wee hours of the morning. So I got up and put him in the…

Crawling Brain
I have mainly been doing my art in two formats lately. I have an app on my phone called SketchPad and a program on my computer called GIMP2. Today I tried to draw a walnut on my phone. It needed something, so I gave it legs and a little trail behind it. It still needed…

Weird
I like to think I’m weird. I’ve certainly exposed myself to a broader scope of ideas than is typical in our culture. But even my weirdness seems commercial most of the time. For instance I grew up with “Weird” Al Yankovic. It has been described and I identify with the description as “music to keep…
