If only we could disengage our minds to take a break ala robot-also quite handy to have a built in foot rest.

I loved all of these, especially the dog flying a Wright Flyer... (I passed it along to the marketing director of our local convention visitor's bureau who is a dog person and there is a history, some day I might share 😀)

I find it fascinating your graphic interpretation can go a whole different direction than perhaps the requester intended... clear language, simple communication is anything but, as the AI LLM software and we are all finding out... Maybe I'm reading too much into language, but it is a curiosity of mine... I wonder if your sick notes will differ from your well notes... 🤔

Love the moose from a distance... more people should adhere to the advice and not do selfies with moose or bears...

Language is wonderful and complicated and great, and I definitely like to have fun interpreting requests. And yes, bears and moose are no joke!

I totally agree. There is magic in the space between the request and the interpretation.

I'm in bed sick too, and you just made my day. I just love your interpretation of the request, and your drawings made me 😃.

These were really fun! You are so free with your associations. I also like the constraints of the post it note size and it feeling not precious. Anything to get out of the critical mind.

When I asked you what you were doing to pass the time and you drew a picture of you drawing pictures, I thought, "Well that makes sense." lol!
