Red Book, Blue Book


Monday, September 14, 2009
Look: historically, I'm not a morning person. And to top it off, I was grimacing through some lower back pain that flowered over the weekend. So when you noticed me (white guy, brown hair, blue/white striped shirt, earphones, red book) and I noticed you (white girl, brown hair, nosering, headphones, blue book) for however brief a moment this morning, it was bolstering and made me forget the knife in my back. Haven't noticed you before, but if there's a next time, maybe I can slap myself out of the morning slumber and say hey. No promises, though.

  7. These are fantastic. You've taken these ads and given them a sweetness that one would never imagine coming from Craigslist.

  8. A friend of mine posted these on FB and they immediately caught my eye. Love the simplicity with your characters and their thoughts. I think all of us have had at different moments in our own lives very similar and that’s why your work is so relatable. I look forward to seeing more Missed Connections illustrations.

  15. Hmm interesting story, written with soul, thanks to the author! There is a magic atmosphere of sleep in your story, and this makes me like it more, because there is a theory that our whole life is a dream, and when we wake up, we die ... By the way, on Instagram you can find many accounts that publish posts with similar stories. I think if you also post this story on your Instagram account, it will get a bunch of likes, since according to my observations, very similar posts have about 25 thousand likes. I am sure their authors resort to the services of https://soclikes.com/buy-instagram-likes to buy likes.

  17. Someone asked me if they should watch a live stream on Twitch. I told them that not only can they watch whatever games, comics and anime they're interested in- but sometimes, important news happens and it's live on Twitch to captivate fans of the game or event. Thankfully, this platform offers multiple options for streaming: through the computer or software that gives all the user to watch whatever they like, so there's almost always something impressive happening at this website. So gamers out there: don't let an opportunity pass you by! Twitch Zuschauer Kaufen
