How not to eat a donut

Cartoon of a boy with a whole donut in his mouth
Cartoon of a boy with a whole donut in his mouth. Another boy says, “If you can’t chew it, I’ve won the bet!”

I’ve lost a few of those dares. Seriously, I have to get a bigger mouth.

How to be honest in a dating relationship

Cartoon of a frog and a princess
Cartoon of frog to princess. The frog says, “Let’s be honest. I’m not a prince. But if you’ll kiss me, I’ll feel good about myself.”

I picture my wife thinking something along this line when we first dated. I’m glad she ended up kissing the frog. She’s still royalty and I’m a better quality frog for it.

Framed Masterpiece

Cartoon of a woman holding a picture frame

Woman holds a picture frame and says, “I must be a masterpiece because I feel framed.”

Sometimes we know the truth, that we’re valuable and unique. But there is a difference between what we know in our mind and what we embrace in your heart. We can spout off the truth and still not feel it.

You are valuable and a masterpiece no matter what you’ve gone through or what you’ve been told. Hold on to the truth, and eventually, the feelings will follow!

Perfect Personal Space

Illustration of a man with his coffee. His cat is sitting atop his head.

Let’s face it. Cats are not known for respecting personal space. Lately, our cat has been particularly neurotic when it comes to morning attention. It makes it hard to put on your thinking cap when the cat is atop your head. It makes me frantically look for a catnip mouse or a can of tuna as a distraction.

If your cat is keeping you from morning productivity, here are a few things you can do:

  • Try reverse psychology. I’ve noticed if you want to pet cats, they run away as if you’ve sprouted a second, evil head. If they think YOU want attention, they’ll sense they are no longer in control and run.
  • Stand up and walk. Cats are not keen on maintaining balance on moving objects.
  • Keep the coffee from the cat. The last thing you need is a neurotic AND a caffeinated cat.

Hang in there. This too shall pass!

Superstitious Photoshop

Apple Insider is reporting new details into Photoshop CS6, codenamed “Superstition.”

Among the new features, some of the items that excite me is there may be more 3D features coming to Photoshop including a perspective crop tool and 3D material eyedropper.

AppleInsider is also reporting the interface will look a little darker, like what is used in Aperture. I’m not sure what to think about that yet. But I’m not too worried if the look changes. If everything stays the same, the old noggin turns to mush.

This is the kind of superstition I wouldn’t mind. They are predicting Photoshop CS6 will release next spring, 2012.
