The Diary of a Cartoonist 2

Dear Mr. Diary,

 

The last time we got together was the last time we got together. Heh heh...

Uh--yes--well moving on to the matter at hand - not foot! Heh...

 

Ahem! I was telling you about the funny thing that happened to me

and the actions I took to respond to said funny thing.

 

About how I sat at my drawing table staring at Mr. bristol and I

couldn't think of a funny thing to write, etc.

 

And then about how I sketched/doodled a funny face and then a second

funny face and that neither of them was able to inspire me to write

something funny, etc.

 

Well I did dare to sketch/doodle a third funny face.

After I sketched/doodled the third funny face

I looked at it for what seemed like an eternity-

it was only for a second or a little less.

 

And then it hit me - not what funny something to write-

but rather the laughter and then more laughter.

I just laughed and laughed for almost an hour.

This time it was for 56 minutes and 3 seconds.

After the laughter and/or laughter the after.

I stared at Mr. bristol, but, alas, I still could not

think of something funny to write.

 

I had sketched/doodled 3 funny faces and had laughed

and laughed and laughed. But that was all I did.

 

I still could not think of a funny thing to write.

 

I gave some serious thought to sketch/doodling yet a fourth funny face.

Could this be the answer or did the answer lie elsewhere?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.............................

 

Until the next time,

C. A. Toone
