Perhaps me and the crazy man would have fallen in love and gotten married! Or perhaps I would have just secretly taken a pic of his shirt.

Good news the "super tadpole shirt manhattan to brooklyn frolic" has been rescheduled! Are you free the first weekend in September? I'd love for you to be in the comic. I'll be so fun!

My limbs are flippin famous! That day was so much friggin fun Col, thanks for having me down. I must do it again as soon as possible. I have captured 3 more for you and I wanna give em to ya personally. I just need to whore myself out a bit to raise some money to come down. I have not yet personally captured this one but if you look at an old episode of Family Guy......the one where Lois and Peter and all the older characters are kids....there is a giraffe in one of the scenes....might wanna look out for it. And I'm out!

I need to start getting TV giraffes as well. It's so damn hard! There's a giraffe in Harry Potter 3 I've never been quick enough to get and I don't think it's fair to pause it.

Anytime you ever want to visit the city, you know you have a place to stay. I'll keep my eye out on any whoring opportunities for you!

Haha! I literally gasped and threw the book down to get my camera. It was such a funny reaction to reading a single word. I can't believe you saw it too!

The drawing of the giraffe is great. I can't get my giraffes to not look like stick figures with long necks!

Houghton Mifflin (or whomever) is gonna GETCHA for copyright violation if you don't remove that image of their book.

Hey. I'm kidding.

Actually it's Scholastic under the Arthur A. Levine imprint, but I recently had Arthur on a committee of mine so I think perhaps I could convince them not to burn me at the stake.

Famous people I could care less about, but meeting famous editors is pretty damn cool.

I keep wondering what will happen when I finish this whole project and try to show it to a gallery, considering probably about 800 of the 1,000 photographs are trademarked or copyright in some way or another. Hmmm.. I shoudl buy some flame retardant pants...
