Although I've tried to tell Norman there's more to Easter than candy, I'm pretty sure he didn't hear me through the sugar coma.

Day 253 - Used Robot Heads
Started looking at clocks and radios on the web today--a slightly out-of-control obsession of mine. (I like to think of it as similar to Mel Gibson's compulsion to buy a copy of Catcher in the Rye whenever he passes a bookstore, as portrayed in the movie Conspiracy Theory.)
So look what I found. A freakin' ROBOT HEAD. I need it, don't I?
A robot is out there wandering around headless for goodness sake!!

Day 250 - Career Choices
Norman was considering a career as a stunt double. Despite the goggles and safety harness, he's now looking into the position of Seat Filler at local talk shows.

Day 248 - Box of Epic-Ness
An amazing package arrived today from my new best friend in Nebraska!
I already felt inspired.

Day 246 - JayBot
I was trying to draw a robotic/Steampunk Jayhawk. It seemed like a good idea . . . until I really tried it. I gave up after sketching the head.

Day 244 - Cup O' Bots
*I found this illustration on Pintrest and colored it while my 16-month-old threw colored pencils at me. I can't wait for naptime.

Day 241 - Impressing the Postal Worker
When I asked for suggestions for Robot-a-Day, I got this one from my sister:
How about a picture of a letter going to your sister, with said letter containing business cards! And....put a robot on it.
Your wish is my command . . . you know, as soon as I get stamps.
(Like my professional blurring of the addresses to keep our identities a secret? VERY high-tech.)

Day 238 - Robot Life Cycle - Part 1
I asked for suggestions for Robot-a-Day and got this one from a good friend:
How about a robot metamorphosis? Like the stages of the butterfly life span, but the robot life span?
I was going to hold off and try to present a really good drawing altogether, but here's a couple of initial sketches for the Egg Stage and the Larva Stage.
Stage 1: The Egg Stage
Stage 2: The Larva Stage
Obviously, still a work-in-progress.

Day 228 - Low Rider
Norman, cruisin'. (Insert song "Low Rider" in your head . . . or aloud, I'm sure no one will mind.)
This involved Norman using his Go-Go Gadget arm to properly reach the steering wheel without disrupting his "coolness."
