\"Countdown<\/a><\/p>\n

Nah, I\u2019m not headed for Paradise\u2014at least not anytime soon. Charlotte\u2019s already there though, vacationing with Dad in Jamaica. The above doodle is from a few days before they left. We were all real happy for Charlotte, getting to escape from wintry Chicagoland for a couple of weeks. But towards the end, her daily countdown (and constant swimsuit modeling) was getting on everyone\u2019s nerves.<\/p>\n

At one point, Blackie had really hoped he might join them\u2014if nothing else, to keep an eye on his (unrequited) sweetie as she strolled the beach in her pretty outfits. Here\u2019s a doodle \u00a0I left on Dad\u2019s breakfast table in mid-January, showing the lengths (literally, via hair extensions) that he was willing to go to secure an invitation (which Charlotte put the kibbosh on right away, of course).<\/p>\n

\"Rasta<\/a><\/p>\n

Speaking of breakfast table doodles, since Dad wouldn\u2019t be here to collect his for a while (and knowing I’d never get it together to post one daily, like I did last year when he was in Mexico<\/a>), I put together 2 weeks\u2019 worth of quick scribbles for him to take along, the morning he left. (I scanned them all in case, God forbid, his luggage got lost.) So here\u2019s a recap of the ones he\u2019s opened so far\u2014no spoilers, Dad!\u2014just for fun.<\/p>\n

But the visuals haven’t just been \u201cone way\u201d\u2014Dad just sent me this wonderful photo from the place where they\u2019ve been staying, as well as permission to \u201cretouch as I see fit.\u201d (Uh-oh!)<\/p>\n

Looks like they’re having a wonderful time, wouldn’t you say?<\/p>\n
