Weirdo Birdo chirping Auld Lang Syne

I hope to hear a bird chirping at midnight! Right outside my window. One can hope! I’m not hoping to be kissed or even to receive a message from anyone…no just a little ol’ bird singing. And even better if it were a little ol’ weirdo birdo like this little guy. Chirp! Chirp!

Oh, how I love birds in these autumn years… And now I’m obsessed with drawing them..so you can obviously guess the theme ringing in the new year shall be for code mush: weirdo Birdo!!!

Happiest of New Years for everyone! The anticipation and the hopefullness of the new year is always bright. Let’s keep the momentum going.

Chirp chirp!!

Unleash Your Weird Bird

Squauk

Unleash your weird bird, your weird bird voice that is. Nevermind however loud and obnoxious a bird is, or however lovely and strange, it keeps on squawking. I realized I spelled squawk wrong but went with it. Because I unleashed it, it’s going to sound and misspell as well as it pleases. And it has just found a bunch of maggots so this bird is happy. Do birds eat maggots? Probably crows do! Damnit it should have been meal worms!

Weirdo Birdo! Maggots are gross. Sorry I didn’t mean to make this a gross bird, it was supposed to be kind of lovely but now you add maggots and he’s definitely strange indeed! We’ll see if this Weirdo Birdo sticks around on the Musho Blogo for a while.

O, Tree..

O, tree

O you guess it, O Christmas tree..Doodling yesterday with my kids. Nothing better than doing that, especially since they both love to draw too.

Here is my son’s drawing of Pizza Steve holding elf on the shelf. Looks just like him, so awesome !

My oldest is more critical of his work and told me not to take a picture. But his Godzilla monsters are amazing! I will have to show them someday! Their walls have all pictures of their awesome work!

I’m just glad I’m getting to spend as much time with them as I can during the holidays. This one is especially different and difficult as divorced parents now… I’m trying to keep our old traditions alive but doing new ones. And I think just being there and showing up with love is all there is to it. Letting them know we are never going to stop loving and caring for them no matter what happens in life. ❤️

New Book of Doodles

Leave a reply

I have been writing/doodling profusely these days and filled up a notebook in 4 months. I guess that’s actually not impressive. Here begins a blank book to fill with mushitudes and mushy blues. And mush brains and half heads, you know more of the same…

Mush Brain as we soon enter 2024

But it’s coincidental that the new book happens to fall near the new year. Lots of potential and opportunities. Keep the half head up slightly (obviously not too high or else it wouldn’t be half!) And look forward to what lies ahead. Okay it’s too soon to be starting to talk like it’s January so let’s keep it together! Let’s let the ending begin it’s end okay? I feel like there is a song in my brain about this, where is it? I’ll find it. Oh there’s a million about endings. I want to compose them all together somehow in a crazy mash up of blessed endings.

Time for 3/4 Face

Leave a reply

Let’s ditch the half face theme for just a moment with a random 3/4 face! (Shrieks of screams!)

This 3/4 Face doesn’t even look like it has thoughts or a voice! Vapid Face!!

I don’t even want to know what they’re thinking. Thinking about bird poop or something. Nothing substantial. The half heads are such strong thinkers, so deep and existential…3/4 face what can you say about them? I hope they don’t show up randomly again, we may find out what they’re actually thinking and saying out loud!

“Poops poops bird poops.”

Maybe they’re just nervous. Half Heads can hide, but when you’re just a little exposed oh boy, sometimes it just comes out…like bird poop. Fast and flying around ready to smack somebody in the face!!

Shrieks!!

Code Mushmas Cards

Leave a reply

I’ve decided to give out the ol’ Christmas cards again this year, I mean Mushmas Cards.

These I feel are the Mushiest, as the others from previous past were an attempt at shoving attention and lurid jokes at people I’d never say in real life to a person. These don’t have that. These have the Mush.

I forgot to include what’s inside each one.

Well if you’d like to receive a Mushmas card, feel free to send me your address to codemush@gmail.com and I’ll send you some Cheer.
