Damned lions!
For old times' sake I bought a ticket to see The Damned a couple of days back then due to another conversation I was inspired to think about how a lion with Dave Vanian's* hair would look - goth lion anyone?
*Could also apply to Morticia Addams & possibly Caitlin Moran

It's Thursday! Jump around in your pants!
It's Thursday, the sun's out, it's probably the only sensible thing to do. Tell your boss 'Steve said it'd be fine'* grab a glass of something cold & head out there!

cat trumpet
The man in the Apple Store asked me what I was drawing.
I explained it was Tuesday morning so naturally I was drawing a cat playing a trumpet.
That seemed to satisfy everyone. : )
