Slippers on a plane, weird

My feet can weary on a long flight. Slippers seem a good idea.

She looks mighty comfy - good for her! Did the little fellow settle in I hope?

I never saw if he did! The lady was comfy, but very busy throughout the flight.

One late night flight I took to Oakland I brought along my usual stack of book reviews to settle into - when a little guy my son’s age was escorted to the two empty seats across from me.. after an hour or so he relaxed with his iPad and smiled at the strange lady with her shoes off sitting cross-legged, reading, making notes and keeping an eye on him (with the stewardess)across the aisle.. couldn’t help it.

The boy mistakes the woman in the red suit for Mrs Claus, and asked his father why Santa's wife is flying commercial when there is a perfectly good sleigh to use.

People watching! What’s your favorite place for this? Mine was the beach at Waikiki--and not everyone was svelte and tan!

Had to breathe a sigh of relief you were flying LA-Bound with the targeted killing in NYC.

What an ending as wkend approaches.

I Did wonder today where you shot the recent hotel video & sketches re your documentary reside…in context to 54th St and the pedestrian passageway near the Ziegfeld Ballroom & West 55th St where police later found a cellphone they are trying to ‘debrief’ re the possible killer.

Not really near there, rather across on the east side. But the Algonuin is close to that location, yes!

I like your prose voice. Straightforward and singular, and genuinely kind.

The woman in the red velvet with slippers is going to relax and take a nap. I live in LA, Liza. We have ordered fabulous weather for you! Enjoy!

Do you draw that fast or are you speeding up the video? I have saved a bunch of Apple Procreate tutorials but I never have time to watch them. Plus I am always misplacing the Apple pencil. One time I left It in Palm Springs! Do you think their Pro pencil is worth spending $129 for? I got the Pentel brush pen. Going on Amazon is dangerous. In addition to the

Pentel, I bought a set of 56 two-sided brush pens which I need like a hole in the head.

I think wearing slippers on the plane is smart. Comfort is my priority. How about this for a caption: “I asked for a berth but they were sold out.” or “I have to unpack my pillow and quilt.”

Oh no! It is sped up. Someday, I will share a comparison, IRT and sped up! My iPad pro only works with the pro pencil, so I don;t know if it's worth it....might not be necessary!

What does IRT stand for? I think my Apple Pencil ran away from home!

That drawing of the boy with his father and the woman with fluffy slippers made me laugh out loud; don't know why and I don't care. It was just great to start the day with the laugh. Thank you Liza!

I started with Paper long ago. Been drawing with Procreate since 2010. Wish I could answer your questions, but it looks like you are figuring it out fine. Thanks for the playback.
