Stop Doing Shit You Hate
'Stop Doing Shit You Hate' | Daily Drawing #277.
I was pressed for time so today's drawing is a time-lapse video. I've been doing quite a few of these lately. For the video capture I've been using the Hyperlapse app from Instagram. It's a dead-simple time-lapse app that makes it easy to post to Instagram, where I post many of these videos.
I can't say I'm happy with the video quality once I uploaded the clip to YouTube. Next time I'll try editing and uploading the raw time-lapse footage versus the edited and filtered Instagram video.
For more of my time-lapse videos, follow me on Instagram.

Screw It, Let's Do It
'Screw It, Let's Do It' | Daily Drawing #263
Just say fuck it. Book the trip, make the phone call, ask the girl out.
After a brief hiatus, I'm resuming my Daily Drawing series. The pause was not intentional. Let me explain.
I live in Philadelphia. Philly is an amazing city, and you can’t beat the location: an hour from the mountains or the beach, a few hours from New York or D.C., and anywhere is reachable via a short drive to I-95, the Turnpike, or the airport.
The problem with Philly? The weather sucks. Especially the Winter. This Winter was especially cruel. Thankfully, I work from my home, so I have no commuting issues. But working from home comes with it’s own costs. One of them is isolation. Combine that with a touch of seasonal affective disorder and you’ve got a big cocktail of crazy. So when the weather finally broke in April, I took full advantage of it. The time I would normally spend at my desk early in the morning or during breaks in the work day were spent outside. Biking, walking my grateful dog, gardening, exploring. Anything to get me out of the house. It was just the mental reset I needed.
It feels good to be back.
