the night paul mac's doodle slipped through my fingers
sometime in May 2009...
paul mac is famous and he lives in our hood. late one saturday night he showed up at the local pub where we were having a few, and having only launched the bigdoodles website a week or two prior i sprinted up to ask if he would be so kind as to 'do' a doodle for me. i am a total stranger to paul, so it was very kind of him to oblige. i quickly rounded up a pen and something to doodle on from the barstaff, and paul set to work.
us cats were three sheets to the wind that night and the next morning we were convinced i'd left the doodle at the pub. we thought i'd taken paul's first attempt at a doodle back to him and told him it needed more work! noone could actually remember if i'd brought the doodle home, and we certainly couldn't find it anywhere in the house.
for several days i mourned the chance i'd blown of having a real deal 'celebradoodle' on my fledgling new website. i began uttering dolefully "the night i let paul mac's doodle slip through my fingers..." but then regret turned to delight one morning when the doodle inexplicably popped up under some papers downstairs. so here it is: 'ears and eyes' - bigdoodles' first celebradoodle, for your viewing pleasure.
