There are some unmistakable signs
They look just like me!

Falling closer is no different than drifting away
This brought back memories of my Snowmen in space doodles. I love drawing stars and the moon, and, come to think of it, anything in the sky. Throwing the earth in there with the space helmet was just a bonus.

The world changes in a moment
It took me awhile (three months to be exact), but I've arrived at this set of doodles. I drew this after speaking with my mother back in September. She was diagnosed with uterine cancer. She called me in the morning, while I was in the parking lot waiting for my vanpool ride. It was a shock. She had told us earlier that she was going in for tests after unexpected bleeding. I remember telling her that it was probably nothing. When she called, I had forgotten about the tests. That's the type of terrible son I am.
When caught early, uterine cancer is highly treatable. Luckily, my mother was very conscientious and went immediately to the doctor and followed their instuctions. She is doing very well now after a successful surgery.
This is the first of a handful of doodles I drew during this time. There was a lot of waiting in the hospital, and I spent much of this time in Illustrator. Doodling was calming and eased (at least for me) the passing hours while we waited.

I'm spiraling downwards
Ah, the "suffering" tagged doodle I planned to post on the first of the year before I had second thoughts. I realized it was bad to start the year on a sour note. There are many suffering Horribles, almost too many. I draw these when I feel like sitting in a dark corner and avoiding everyone. Or it could be I felt like drawing a spiral at the time. It's always hard to say.
We're almost finished organizing the second set of photographs from the wedding. As soon as Julie double checks the ordering, I'll post them.

There are strange things everywhere
My queue is beginning to shrink. I have to get adoodling this weekend.
It's a beautiful Seattle morning, the beginning for a beautiful Seattle weekend. Here's to not wasting good weather with bad headaches.
