i shouldn't admit it, but i like my lists. i write them on an 8 by 11 envelope and target the things i care about most even those i won't get to them any time soon.
what i don't like is the weight of chores, papers and details. if i could eliminate vacuum cleaners and insurance policies from my life, i would!
ahhh let's throw all lists in the trash! I like your illust....and how you've been incorporating this hand drawn font that keeps resurfacing in your pieces.
What? Are you flippin' Santa Claus now? I know you've got the beard and that smug jolly look on your face like you just ripped a fart...but I got news for you. You're about 300 pounds too small to fill the fatman's boots. Hey, you could always take over for the Tooth Fairy! You've already got the dress. ;)
PS: You didn't waste any time doing the "opposite" of "clean," did you?
I have a theory that Thomas Carlyle was near sighted. Well, I'm far sighted, so I'm going to take huge poetic liberties:
"Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a at hand, but to do what lies clearly at a distance."
There, now I can see it better. This is like one of those 3d pictures that pop out if you focus a little ahead of it (this technique works great for life in general, I find) OMG I see it! This is a great f***ing list Willie!!!
(Love the K and the I!)
Geez, you sure are smart. Okay I'm done. Bye for now :)
Brilliant.
ReplyDeleteThis is how I feel every. Damn. Day.

ReplyDeletelove it, but actually, the list keeps me sane. otherwise I wake up in the middle of the night thinking, "oh, I better remember to do..."
