Bunny in a hat

Bunny in a hat. How about that.

I did these drawings after doing 40 arm curls which might explain why they’re a little lop-sided. A LITTLE?! Geez, you don’t have to be so critical. I tried! You should see my arms right now. They’re so..what’s the word I’m looking for..

Oh yea.

That.

Coincidentally, his mother’s name is Bunny too! I did not plan this out but I do love myself some happy coincidences.

Do you want to guess the bunnies this week? Of course you do! I don’t know what your prize will be this time but I’m sure I can pull something out of my hat. Get it? Hat. Bunny.

You are still reading, aren’t you?

You dolls.

Bunny in a hat. hat. hat.

I was never this way. Sunshine was never an excuse for lack of productivity. Guess that’s what four seasons and the lack of sun does to you. Four seasons like the seasons, not the hotel.

All day I’ve just been staring outside, thinking of what I needed to do. Yes, the sun needed to hit my skin and no, standing in a kitchen wasn’t an option. I miss the 355 days of summer I’m so used to. For a minute there I caught myself thinking about how I’d miss “layering” but who am I really fooling? I do not know how to layer. Wearing two tank tops instead of one is my idea of (lame) style more than warmth.

Welcome to the temperate zone, I guess. I also never thought I’d care this much about the weather. All I do is watch for the next full day of sun. I’m a sun person. Complete beer and cocktail with sand in my feet person. Crazy person.

You knew that part already.

As advance notice, tomorrow I’m going to be productive. If by productive you mean, stare outside and count the number of walks I’m going to take.

Probably a million. Or two.

More bunnies in the hat. If you guess what each bunny is correctly, I’ll draw you a postcard sized drawing that you can frame and then pretend that it’s the work of a very famous and cool artist. The kind you’d want to be friends with.

Such a ham.

Bye!

That’s how much attention I’ve been giving to my drawing lately. My whole life revolves around taking buses and getting to places, which leaves me little time to sit down and make a complete drawing. You’ll be happy to learn that yesterday was different. I happened to flip back some pages I use to scribble on and I found this really cute doodle I made. I don’t know what I was thinking when I drew it but I high-five’d myself and felt really cool. It was just a simple bunny in a hat but that’s all it took to feed my brain some smart food.

I drew a lot of bunnies in magician hats and I can’t wait to do some more. I love new series of things…they get me excited for no reason. If you have a bunny in a hat idea, pass it on. I’d love to see where it goes in my head. Of course I’ll give you credit. I’m nice, remember?

On a completely typical “Cat + You” side of things, this is how I look when I’m grocery shopping alone. I’m never this way when I shop with my married person but that’s only because he’s a lot crazier about these sugary things than I am. Me, I try to be the voice of reason.

ICE-CREAM. Sigh. I’m starting to think it’s not worth being an adult about these things.

Today, my blog friend who was first Gayle’s friend in Goa because they both worked at the same cafe where they made amazing cupcakes and things, let me know that she received a drawing I mailed her a couple of weeks ago. YAY. That sentence was too long. Take your time with it.

I think it was in January that I wrote a blog post where I asked my then imaginary readers if they wanted a postcard drawing or letter from me. If you weren’t reading then, you must know that I love sending mail and I take it a little too seriously. This girl was the only one hungry and excited about it and 2 months later, I finally sent her a drawing that came to me out of nowhere. All I know of her is from reading her blog. I took a wild guess that she’d like the haathi (elephant) and cake. Whoaaaaa what a smart one I am.

She hasn’t told me I missed the mark yet so I think I did okay.

If you want to feed my letter-writing insanity, email me your address to edlyngd@gmail.com. I promise I won’t send you any cable bills.

Now do the bunny hop.
