Disclaimer: this post has nothing to do with I-pods. just Pea-pods.
Do you like Peas?
Have you ever wanted a pea pod costume and not been an infant?
I know I have…
In my imagination, all my dreams are alive! I wish I had pea green tights.

Happy Architecture: John Hancock Tower
I don’t usually post any of the architectural stuff that I do. I have no idea why really… Maybe because I feel people are way too stuffy about architecture. Maybe because it’s what I do all day… anyways…
I was torn on this one because it is at both times architecture and a doodle. But I decided to post it because it is my favorite skyscraper. Simple and structurally magnificent I present to you Big John from Chicago:
Also can anyone tell SOM, that I would like to make big buildings with them? Because its true.

Shrimp
Today’s doodle/story needs only but a brief description.
I was thinking about what it would be like to be dressed like a crustacean. Not for Halloween, or for anything fancy… just an average day dressed like an aquatic friend. So I drew this:
And then I realized its also funny because I am short as heck. Bask with me in my shortness.
The end.

It makes you Wonder
Today’s Story time with Lauren is about Elliott the cat:
Sometimes I see my cat staring at birds. He stares at them in a way where you can tell he wants to eat their faces.
But it’s cute, because he is an indoor cat and has no chance of ever catching birds.
And if he did he may pass out from excitement.
If we lived in the Twilight Zone he would wake up to find he was a bird all along:

Dress Me Up in Pictures
Jimmy has already made me go see halloween decorations.
And since it is still August, and this is completely logical. I begin this Halloween season with things that Jimmy should dress as:
1. A goat herder
2. A goat
3. Allspice
4. Waldo… of “where is waldo”fame
5. Alex Trebek
6. A mountie of protecting Canada fame
7. Regis Philbin
8. Toast
9. Bert from Mary Poppins
10. Or my personal fav. Kenneth the NBC page.
Did you notice this wasn’t really helpful at all?
Yep. My job is complete.

Decorating with Elliott
Today’s storytime adventure involves another true story.
This story takes place in a little beige house with white trim. In this house resides a family, a family with 3 lovely pets.
As you can tell this is probably my house, and those are probably my pets that I am talking about.
Specifically, tt’s about Elliott, the cat.
To my cat there is nothing more relaxing than recreational decorating. He enjoys stealing weird bits of string, paper, paperclips, twisty ties, and unused popsicle sticks (from a failed art project) to scatter all about his kitty tube.
When you clean up the area he goes back out to the world to recollect these bits, or similar friends of theirs. I think he is inspired to do this because he knows that I work with architecture.
I think if he had an architectural style it would be deconstructionist.

Delicious and Cakey
Do you think a cupcake would describe itself as cakey?

Alternate Jimmy
In an alternate universe Jimmy does not like art, or postcards, or architecture.
Somewhere out there that opposite Jimmy is playing a sport… like football:
28 years of Eric
Today is Eric’s Birthday….
I feel like there should be a parade full of ladies somewhere to commemorate this event.
Viciously Sweet
