Noodle doodles

I've been feeling kind of burnt out lately.  Work really is for suckers.  Someone should give me a big sack of money so I can not go to work and just draw pictures of dinosaurs all day and drink beers and heckle neighborhood kids.  I mean... those are the things I'm good at.  I don't understand why I can't just be paid for the things I'm good at? 

Anyways I went out to dinner with Melissa the other day and there were crayons on the table.  Normally that would make for 1) the best dinner ever (not the crayons, but the drawing while I wait impatiently for my food to come) and 2) a table full of dinosaurs and volcanoes and balloons and whatever else but on this night in particular, along with many other nights recently I just didn't feel like drawing anything.  Melissa, needless to say, was both shocked and VERY upset.  She suggested that perhaps she would draw a noodle in a top hat.  Once she had done so I decided that I, too, would draw a noodle in a top hat.  Drawing noodles or... noodle doodles is kind of great!  So... here's my fancy Noodles McAllister out on the town with his best gal Nancy. 

He's whistling... obviously...

So then... what do you call a noodle that likes to get stoned??

A PASTAFARIAN!!! (Thanks Quinton)
And since that got me in the mood for doodlin' I finally drew some dinos. 

They're wearing f*cking overalls!

When I write captions for my pictures I'm always shouting in my head.  I hope you read them that way... shouting with excitement.

So, I don't know.  I need to get back on the horse.  I'm hoping that with the weather warming up a bit I'll want to do more than just get in my bed as soon as I get home from work.  Maybe I'll buy some crayons??
