12 of 12 ~ September '08 Edition
Ok people, here's the deal. I'm busy. And I'm tired. I'm so tired that I can't sleep. I feel bloated, most of my appendages are at risk of collapse, and I'm pretty sure there's a pus volcano forming near my left nostril. It could possibly just be that time of the month. Or year.
Does someone have a doll wearing dark rimmed glasses and lots of tiny needles nearby? If so, KNOCK IT OFF.
Regardless, since I'm not quite dead yet, here's 12 photos because it's the 12th of the month:
07:28:34 - A Few Minutes Until Departure
Which means there's plenty of time to build the ship.
07:29:47 - Shlincky
SHmwwoooooshumm.
07:41:10 - Fridge Mantra: SLUG DIB
08:10:21 - No Left Turn
At this precise moment Sara Palin was being overanalyzed on the radio, making several people gloat with hysterical glee and several other people break out in hives (and reach for the rash cream).
08:24:18 - Treasure Box
Breakfast don't gotta be complicated.
08:25:13 - Hoop Daze
Waiting for my acai smoothy with the morning crowd of two at Jamba Juice. No worries, bud. I can't hula hoop either.
08:51:02 - My Desk, My Life.
EgAdZ.
14:37:48 - The Walker
Salvaged detail of a cardboard mural.
16:48:57 - SMOKED
I finally finish eating lunch around 4:30. I also find myself putting hot sauce on almost everything I can get away with now. I'm not sure but I think it makes me southern? Or old?
20:15:29 - The Last To Leave
It's true. I work too late.
21:10:52 - Full House
Bookshelf at home, desk at work, it doesn't matter. I come home stare at these intending to become cultured, or at least briefly entertained, and then go to bed in defeat.
21:57:03
Slippery Street
This road is much busier than I ever imagined it would be. Don't let your dogs or children out without a leash.
Bonus Photo - Homemade Droids
Their names are Beetle and Harley. They are looking for Emeralds. Their captain is Captain Roboto. Their ship is shy and is always hiding under things. I didn't make any of this up. A monkey told me so.

The Art of Time Travel
I've been far, far away and after ten days on the other side of the country, I'm having some difficulties forcing myself to go to sleep at a reasonable hour tonight.
The initial shift to the west coast was not jarring one bit, I seem to have been living on California time all the while living in Florida.
As such I do not feel it is important to go to work tomorrow, not because I don't want to go but instead I have more important things to do. Like upload gigabytes worth of photographic evidence.
More ruminations to follow when I've wrapped my head around it all.

12 of 12: July '08 Edition
07:19:09
Premonition.
07:21:05
Magical Fridge Mantra: GUD MOJO.
07:39:27
I have not erased my white board of to do things since at least 2004.
08:58:10
Yes, I did have the last piece of apple pie for breakfast. And then?
10:05:49
The prospectors did not find gold with that there fancy machine-that-goes-ping, but rather this artifact. And a piece of rusted rock resembling ancient poop. It's now begin examined by experts to see if the Power of Grayskull can be extracted.
10:25:18
An early parting of ways for the day.
11:26:49
As opposed to earlier, there's an E-VIL MOJO in this stack somewheres. You see, it's not laziness that keeps me from cleaning, it's fear of what may be unleashed.
13:54:00
Words to live by from the back of a rusty bumper: "Late Is Eternal - Know Where You're Going When You Go" Oh wait, my bad, that's LIFE. I totally like my version better.
14:11:11
Protoman versus the Kiwi.
15:19:10
Hay U, teeny urflink, U give me ploom I no imvade your pewnee planet.
20:13:24
To end the evening, we went to see about a man with a very large organ. After being prodded with pizza the younger monkey finally removed his hands from his ears and kept the roller coaster yells to an infrequent "NARF."
20:31:46
It was unfortunate when the short flapper dressed all in green sequins, garland & fringe asked me if I got many good pictures, as I replied no since my batteries had run out of juice, and therefore could not capture her yanking unsuspecting 80 year old men from their seats to get jiggy. But I had just enough to catch her disappear back to the Emerald City.
If you aren't sure what this is it's twelve pictures on the twelfth day of the month, every month, part of Chad Darnell's "12 of 12" project. Go, see, play next time.
11:25:49 - BONUS!
Me and a banana. Because, why not?

Run, Matt, Run!
Okay so, pay attention, boys and girls.
My buddy Matt is going to be running in the Chicago Marathon. Since Matt is not in the habit of running marathons (and really, who is?), he's participating in the National AIDS Marathon Training Program. This ensures that Matt does not keel over from exhaustion, dehydration or other random obstacles like flying monkeys.
I find this to be highly admirable. Thing is, Matt also needs to raise a bit o' money to participate in this endeavor by July 15th. I've also been inspired to do something with my art lately for the forces of good, which is where you and I come in.
I'll be doing a mini-marathon of my own from July 1st - 15th, where all the sketches that I draw will be printed as a limited edition postcard set, hand signed and numbered. Donate $40 to Matt's run and you score a set for yourself. Easy, right?
Just follow these simple steps to help out:
1. First and most important, make a donation of at least $40 or more by going here. (One postcard set per donation.)
2. Then, send an email to okaysoradio@gmail.com with your name, the amount you donated and your shipping address (so that we know you want a set and how to get it to you) .
3. A few weeks after July 15th you should get a set of your very own to admire, send to friends or swat away flying monkeys. You'll also get for free, our humblest gratitude.
4. Much like when my younger son played in a baseball league on a giant rubber field, "Everybody wins!"
Remember that you can see these sketches drawn live (mostly) everyday on ustream.tv during lunchtime (which is around 1 PM EST). There will be around twenty total so be on the lookout for a few live shows in the evening as well!
Don't let me down, wonderful internet people! (Because you know I have access to flying monkeys...)
UPDATE: See all the sketches so far:
