Every school day my son requests his doodle...the one I draw on his snack bag. At times elaborate, whimsical, topical, but mostly just whatever he is into at the moment. I am NOT an artist, but indulge this request each day for fun. This is a daily musing about his requests.

Black Hawk Down
Yeah, I don't know if this movie even has a helicopter, but it sounds like it should, right? Anyhow...a ghetto bird was flying high this morning round the hood. Given how innocuous & super safe my neighborhood is, guessing this is traffic-reporting related versus hard-core crime. Either way, Oscar was running from window to window to catch a glimpse which produced this morning's request. And I guess I hope your not driving on the BQE? Happy Monday! xoxo

Scuba Steve
Well, beach day may be canceled since it is raining...again. But hey - I packed the snorkel set so just rock that sh*t anyway I told Oscar this morning. Don't worry, censorship was in play. Oscar is all about going underwater these days. He is on a mission to exercise every conceivable activity while beneath the surface - talking, singing, snapping his fingers, farting. Goals are important - that's what I always say. Happy Thursday! xoxo

Oswold Chesterfield Cobblepot
This morning's deliberation: draw a yellow jacket...no - a ladybug....wait, a t-rex eating a caveman. And finally draw The Penguin - Lego Penguin. I think I feel bad for the camp counselors today - we seem exceptionally hyper. So, yeah, The Penguin in Lego Batman for PS3 - you've got it my little duder - play on. Happy Wednesday! xoxo

Garanimals
Another soaker - this summer has been oh so wet. No complaints - that's not allowed here especially when it comes to weather - just hoping this doesn't jack the zoo trip camp has planned today. Oscar wanted mew to draw an animal he will see. Giraffes are pretty much a stand out in all situations (pun intended), but mostly I had a vision of Noah's Ark playing in my head when we chatted about doodling this morning. Oh, what biblical reference? Yeah I did. Happy Tuesday! xoxo

KIX
Not much depth to Oscar's ask this morning - he seemed to be searching for something since no idea was immediately there. When he started rattling off his pieces of clothing we settled on sneakers. Kinda rad - I have a special affection for them in their various forms & lately I've thought a lot about their design + function. Classic All Stars = pretty iconic. They make me think of the 80's when I wore two different colors - left & right - to be a badass. Happy Monday! xoxo

High Score 418056003450
This morning Oscar asked for a centipede. I decided to blend his two obsessions into an homage to an Atari classic. Naturally, he has no idea what this game is with its 2D base graphics & tinny theme music...he asked how it's played and when I explained you shoot the centipede with these laser dashes before it crushes you at the bottom of the screen. He looked confused. "That's it?" Yeah, that's it but you can score major digits - almost as high as the debt ceiling...humble beginnings. Happy Thursday! xoxo
ps - apologies for the pic quality - my bberry battery was dead this morning and I don't have time to photoshop :)

Bloggless in Brooklyn
My technical problems abound this week! No photo to send - my cut over to Verizon from AT&T is preventing a photo share...wah wah. I'll make tomorrow's post super good to make up for it :) xo
