Morning - Charlie lacing up his Converse at the speed of a reluctant tortoise without full use of limbs meant yet again late for school despite me screaming til hoarse. Mood - Bad.
Lunchtime - Got on bus to Seaford, found no one to draw, livid, (time wastage is pet hate), got bus back from Seaford to draw in Sainsbury's Newhaven, and messed up sketchbook attempting to use tone. Mood - Dangerously Bad.
Dinnertime - Spent afternoon waiting outside Brad's flat for delivery (he had lost spare key) which was late. Came home to tackle hurried tidying up due to visitor, mountain of washing up and much loathed cooking of dinner. Mood - Understandably Bad.
Night time - having broken record for exhaustion, pushed aside mountains of clothes and books and fell into bed for usual broken sleep and bad dream. Mood - Bad.
Conclusion of Mood Map Experiment - am miserable old bag.
Anyway, here is the least awful of the sketches I did during my day from hell.
Actually I've seen this man around Newhaven quite a lot. He always reminds me of Yoffy from Fingerbobs. Remember Fingerbobs? I always felt a failure because I couldn't make any of the puppets to my satisfaction.

Yoffy lifts a finger and a mouse is there...
I remember his polo neck as much as anything.
Come to think of it, my GP reminds me of him a bit.
Yoffy bends another, and a seagull takes the air! I wish my GP was like him. It would make stressful examinations much more entertaining.
By the way the next line should read "Puts his hands together and a seagull takes the air". What was I thinking? I think the song also involves a tortoise head peeping out. Who said making paper puppets wasn't exciting!?
