Ew.

I saw this today on the path next to the railroad tracks. I don't know exactly what it was--maybe something about how it was positioned just so, or the fork sitting inside--that made me want to take this picture. I was on my way to get an egg salad sandwich, but after seeing that...I lost my appetite for a little while.

Look, a kitty.

My aunt recently got a cat. I'm at her house tonight and I'm kind of bored, so I wasted some time taking pictures of her. This one's the best of them, even though it's all dark...oh well. Her name is Mia.

I feel like sharing this.

'Inori' means 'prayer', by the way.

I didn't take this picture with my phone, but I figured this was the best place for it. I drew it yesterday afternoon for a card that I gave to a friend shortly after its completion. It's ripped off from heavily inspired by Yoshitaka Amano's "Kingyohime" series...drawn on card stock, colored in with a Sharpie. I'm pleased with it. The complete card ended up looking like a third-grade art project (lamest mount job ever, I had to use tape), but oh well. I'm drained now...I feel like I put way too much effort into the things I did earlier this week, including the card, but the effort came without thinking. I know why it did, too, and I'm kind of scared. Okay, I'm overthinking things at the moment. Forgive me. Enjoy the illustration.

Cheer up already!

A number of recent events have left me somewhat depressed...so today during my lunch break I went to a very dangerous place known as the second floor of Draeger's, where I found the super cute pen you see here. I didn't notice the added bonus until the end of the day, when I looked at the receipt and noticed it had been rung up as "light up duck":
