SketchBooooook (spooky...but not really at all)

I've been posting a bunch of desk doodles to Flickr lately and thought I should probably share here too! I've posted a couple examples but definitely take a moment to see the whole thing on my Flickr SketchBook set. I'll keep updating as long as I keep my day job ;)

Detention Doodles

Ok, so it's a little sad to even complain about something like this, but I'm going out of my MIND with boredom here at my day job. During this calm before the inevitable storm I've decided to be a little productive. With so little else to do during the 9-5, I'm on my third lined notebook, my 5th set of bic pens (red blue and black) and my 4th highlighter. Weee! How I love office supplies. Anyway I'm gonna start posting some of these, as I like to call them, "Detention Doodles". When you see them I think you'll know what I mean. They are just one step below a pocket knife in the desktop or sharpies on your denim jacket... ooooooh yeeeeahhh - 'cept they pay me for this....... xo
