Today is National Doodle Day, which according to that link, is this: "National Doodle Day is a doodle-tastic annual fundraising event organised by Epilepsy Action. On Friday 5 February 2016, friends, family and famous faces will join together to draw a line through epilepsy." Excellent. I love a day that is helpful. Are you a doodler? I can't draw for crap, so doodling always hits my perfectionist button and then I freak out about what is supposed to be a somewhat thoughtless process. I'm more of a squiggler:
This is a post-it note I squiggled on while I was on one of my 8 million phone calls with various customer service people today. I used to do this on my notes in class, too. I have no idea what you would call this besides squiggles. A squiggle doodle? A Squoodle? Oh well. Let's look at some shoes doodled upon by people who can actually draw:
Look how detailed this are. I find these really cool and frankly amazing since I definitely can't draw like that.
Also cool, and I like the contrast of the black on the blue shoes.
Or the white on the blue shoes!
I like that these don't match.
Simple, but again, I like the contrast between the blue shoes and the white doodling.
I *think* these started as white and the blue was added, because they don't match, and I don't think it's one white shoe and one blue shoe.
Not my favorite, but still cool.
I don't think these are hand-doodled. If they are someone has WAY more patience than I do.
Happy Doodle day! Now go doodle on some shoes. Or scrap paper. You know, whatever. No wait, first finish reading this post!
3 Things:
- I didn't mutter, say, or scream obscenities today when I got super frustrated calling 8 million customer service people today! (Hey, I'll take my gratitude where I can find it)
- Despite my grumpiness I was able to help the sales reps figure some stuff out in a meeting today. I like when I know stuff that's actually helpful.
- I bought on-sale yarn today. Pedro needs a new hat!
