Dancing in the Streets
I had an 'aha' moment recently. For the past few months I've been noticing cats prints all over my car when I wake up in the morning (for some reason only my car). Then, recently I saw Puss in Boots where the cats were dance fighting. It hit then that they're dancing on my car in
the moonlight.

Dream
About a year ago I had a dream I've never forgotten. I've had many I remember when I wake up, but they eventually seem to fade out of memory. This one really stuck though. It was nighttime and I was in a park with someone else (I don't know who). There was a man talking to us. He was more than a man though, he was a sort of oracle/wiseman. He looked like an average joe businessman, dressed in a suit and wearing a long trench coat over it. I remember distinctly though that he was huge, maybe about 8 ft. tall or more. He was explaining to us that he
had the ability to distinguish those who had a gift and were extraordinary. He was explaining this for awhile when he stopped, looked at me, slowly smiled, and said "There's something special about you, isn't there?". I remember sheepishly looking away, nodding my head, and that's when I woke up.
Rarely a day goes by when I don't think of it and its significance. I've always worked hard, but ever since then I've made it a point to go that extra mile in pursuing my dreams and goals to find out if what was stated in my dream is really true.

Leave it to Beaver
I was recently listening to Jeff Foxworthy tell a story of how a man had his nipple bitten off by a beaver. The imagery was just beautiful, so I thought I'd sketch it

Recently industry songwriter Robert Sherman passed away. He did a lot of work with Disney back in the day. 'It's a Small World' he wrote for the theme park ride.

Tribute to Ralph McQuarrie
Over the weekend, Ralph McQuarrie died. He was an amazing concept artist from the entertainment industry, most known for the work he contributed toward the original Star Wars films. I figured somewhere there's gotta be some Sand People giving a shout out.
