I guess I could reword and repost it here, but why don’t you just head over to my own blog and read my little re-cap and requiem for Thing-a-Day 2008. And you can find out what the hell this thing is:

Thanks for a great month, everyone!

Phew!

This is dated the 29th, but it is actually my thing for the 28th (it was just after midnight when I put the date in I guess). We get one more last one tomorrow.

The rare lost poster artwork from the 1972 Bollywood remake of Masculin Féminin.

I created a short visit to Outpost for the express purpose of making this drawing, but the soy latte was a pretty sweet bonus. And I’ll take pretty much any excuse to visit Outpost.

For February 21st, I threw myself a birthday party. I documented it poorly … probably a couple dozen folks (including me) weren’t photographed, and those that were were photographed poorly. Oh well. It was great, you had to be there, thanks to everyone who was, and extra crazy special thanks to Isa for making all kinds of wonderful food and Olivia for baking the cake!

As drawn by the left. I can’t remember ever drawing with my left hand before. It’s kind of creepy and I kind of want to do more of it.

Just a little old-fashioned something for today.

A portrait of one of my favorite wordsmiths and thinkers, J. M. Coetzee. I’ve been loving his writing even more than usual lately.
