Since I expounded on all things pertaining to foodles yesterday (at considerable length), I have found that I seem to be resisting any urge to sketch a hamburger. I do most of my sketching at work while I’m holding on the phone or waiting for my computer to load something. However, today my desire to deviate from the normal mindless doodle ended up wreaking havoc on my productivity.
It started, as it often does, with a subconscious burger foodle beginning with the bun. But then I realized what I was doing, and I decided to shake things up by having the remaining components of the burger FLOAT IN THE AIR. WHOOA! I tried to get back to work, but then all I could think about was, “Why are they floating? That just doesn’t make sense!”
I realized I would never be able to focus until I had some closure on the issue. I concluded that magnets were involved in some way. Then, before I knew it, the floating burger components ended up being a guy’s head. And he was passing a business card to someone, but I wasn’t sure what sort of clientèle a burger head would be networking with. So the card was modified into (what else?) A GUN.
I know that guns are not to be taken lightly, so I had to make sure he had a darn good reason to be packing that kind of heat. Anyway, this thought process continued until it consumed about seven hours three minutes of my valuable work day.
