When I dug out all my old sketchbooks in 2016, I still had the cat pee sketchbook. It doesn’t smell, but pages are wobbly and on the front is written in sharpie “CAT PEE” – I guess so I’d avoid it? But not toss it out, apparently.

December 9, 2010 – KEVIN’S FAIRY TALE THEATER
Sometimes, when I was bored at work, I would ask Kevin to tell me certain fairy tales. He never wanted to, so he would try to say, “I don’t remember” and I would say “well make it up.” So that’s how these came about. There were so many more I never wrote down.

I find it interesting that the amount of my weird posts dropped a LOT after I started dating Chase. Many theories abound. I think now he just gets the brunt of my weirdness instead of my blog.
I need to improve on this. I will endeavor to share more weirdness here in the future.
