The Best Thing Ever
FOUND by Sam
in New York, New York
It was the first nice day of spring so I decided to go to Central Park. I found a nice plot of grass to lay down on and eventually fell asleep. When I awoke this was folded up behind my head.

Definitely one of my favorite finds.
Stuff like this only happens in movies.
I was recently visiting san fran and on the streets i saw this woman who was just absolutely beautiful. nothing realy special about her, but seeing her sitting on a ledge, writing in her notebook, i just wanted to tell her how beautiful she looked to me at that moment. I didn't, i regret it, and this kind of reminded me of that incident.
This restores my faith in humanity.
I was in new york at the end of march. everyone was telling me how that day was the first really nice day they had had all year. that afternoon I took a nap in central park. I was dressed just like that, and when I sleep without a bed my body lies just like that. I can't help but wonder if that is me in the picture.
did she get your wallet?
edward, I'm pretty sure it's a drawing of Sam [the finder of the sketch] sleeping. I believe "Katie" left this sketch of Sam sleeping in Central Park deliberately for him seeing as it was neatly folded and under his head. This experience of Sam's seems very familiar to me but I don't know why.
that really does rule.
That note is the most beautiful thing I've seen in a long time.
That sounds like something my friend Katie in NYC would do... interesting.
There is this movie, called He Loves Me He Loves me not. And in the movie, a man sits down on a bench and finds pictures drawn of himself and a boy named anthony. Anyway, this just reminded me of it. This find is kind of stalkerish, but at the same time touching.
This took my breath. I love it.
This is my favorite. I don't think it has an ounce of stalker feel to it. It's humanistic. Something we don't always get to experience from strangers in day to day passings. A fairy tale feel. That’s what makes it so special.
No one else thinks this is creepy!? Honestly? Why'd you fall asleep in a park thats pretty dangerous. And youre not even certian if this is actually a female.
You should find her.
Awww this gives me warm fuzzies! I LOVE this find and the story behind it. How wonderful! I agree with Kristen, find her!
Ditto to Kristen and Vinny.
how Adorable!
i wonder if "Kat in the kitchen" is my best friend?
her name is Kat my name is Kitty.
go ahead, you can laugh;)
wow you are lucky
Wow, I had no idea so many comments were on this. I looked around for Katie and asked people if they'd seen what happened, but nobody knew anything. I looked towards where the artist would have been based on the angle of the drawing and nobody was there. I probably slept for a long time, since I had pulled two consecutive all-nighters. I'd really like to find out who Katie is.
Definite movie material.
you should go back the same day, the same time, the nest year. maybe she will be there... you never know...
Katie! if u see this you should totally contact Sam.
i read all the comments, hoping katie had found this website and had seen that sam had posted her lovely sketch, and that they had found a way to reunite for a touchingly awkward first meeting. but alas, not yet. serendipity works on its own timeline...
wow, that is truly beautiful :) how you could fall asleep in a park in New York, I'll never know, but still very beautiful :)
This is so awesome.
Romantically creepy.
This is funny because I try to do things like this for others. I always hope someone might think of it as uplifting and not creepy.
I'd say fall asleep in Central Park on the same day at the same time again. But keep one eye open.
This happens in the french film 'He Loves Me He Loves Me Not'...
Yeah Sam, you should do exactly what Martha said. If Katie doesn't show up she probably got hit by a car on her way to the park... Seriously, that's a really cool find, but stop dreaming about this girl, probably she's ugly and if you go back to the park this spring you'll for sure find at least 20 Katie's waiting for you.
Definitely the cutest Found item I have ever seen. Almost enough to make me believe that finding love like they do in the movies is possible. :)
It's got to be possible to find Katie. It somehow reminds me of the movie Amelie, where she does everything to return a photoalbum to someone she doesn't know who is!
Kudos!!! lovely. Hope you find her. Get the pic framed. I would.
P.S. How in the world anyone fall asleep in Central Park is beyond me. As such you´vre restored my faith in humanity . Thank you
For some reason or another, I hadn't slept in two days. It was the afternoon and it was warm and comfortable, and there were lots of people around, so it's not like it was unsafe to fall asleep.
I don't remember where in the park it was, and the year anniversary has sadly already passed. But I do remember that after waking up I walked around the park more, and sat near a beautiful girl who was studying. I eventually asked to borrow her notebook to get a piece of paper or something. In her notebook I wrote "I just asked you for your notebook so that I could tell you you are beautiful" on some random page she would encounter in the near future.
This makes me smile
Sam, you make me want to run away to new york and hang out in central park. It sounds like an amazing place.
this is why i'm never moving away from new york
so, back to the people who made comments about "he loves me he loves me not," it reminded me of that, too... and what happens in that movie is that this girl had been stalking this man for a very long time, and was convinced that they had a relationship together and that he was going to leave his wife. she stole a heart from a hospital, pierced it with an arrow, and left it for him to find at his office. he didn't even know her.
but this picture is lovely.
I know this has already been said, but I have to echo- this restores my faith in humanity.
Katie, whoever you are and whatever you're doing, I just wish you could know how many strangers you've touched! YOU are beautiful.
this is so beautiful! you shouldnt bother to find her, thats the beauty of it.
That is one of the nicest things I have ever heard of. You were really lucky to have experienced it. Your heart must be up-lifted everytime you think of it. Lucky you.
I say let the mysteriousness envelop you. The beauty of it is that she didn't leave contact info, no last name, etc. It wasn't intended for you to find her which makes the event more magical and out of this universe. Good stuff.
This is really cool, and if I could draw I would do something like that. I've been known to leave notes on cars & whatnot but they're usually mean. I wish I had a reason to write a sweet one.
To anyone who said this is creepy or doesn't 'get' why someone would fall asleep in Central Park, you don't understand. This is proof that even thought most people suck, there are still a few angels wandering around, touching us when we need it most.
I can't help but sigh whenever I see this...
in both hope and amazement.
Wishful thinking seems to follow this find...
I think I saw an ad where this exact same thing happened...
Someone fell asleep on a beach and woke up with a portrait.
Infinitely nicer in reality.
I this is so special. What a beautiful ego boost! And Sam,I have a notebook in Devon!! hee hee
Why can't that kinda of thing happen to me? Cause I live in Texas maybe?
I love Central Park. If I lived close enough to go there on sunny afternoons and take naps amongst people playing frisbee and walking their dogs, I would.
What happened to you is truly special, Sam. I'm glad you have shared it with us.
Oh wow, that is amazing.
that was so sweet
this is one of my favorites
she should have stayed to see a reaction..
Maybe she did, just not in the place where she drew the picture from - incase he realised it was her.
Sam, you are so lucky!
i honestly think this is my favorite thing i've seen on here. it's so unreal and beautifully amazing.
wow....just wow!
What an amazing thing to do
Sam, re: "sat near a beautiful girl who was studying. I eventually asked to borrow her notebook to get a piece of paper or something. In her notebook I wrote "I just asked you for your notebook so that I could tell you you are beautiful" on some random page she would encounter in the near future."
That is so incredible that you would "pay it forward" so quickly like that!
Not only are you beautiful on the outside (as per Katie's drawing and her words), but obviously on the inside too.
Gosh. This is so beautiful, I just want to print it, take it around in my purse... and then do the same for someone else. You were practically chosen for a wonderful thing like this!
(So envious - in a good way)
this made me love life just when i was starting to get really fed up with it. i'll be leaving some anonymous drawings in the future, per katie's inspiration.
This is amazing. :)
my friend sent me the link 4 this and as soon as I seen it it made me happy
makes ya wonder what if u ever found that girl also makes me wish something happened 2 me like that ,very beautiful
Sometimes I wish cute mysterious things like this would happen to me...
Karen, the first thing i thought of was amelie as well!
This drawing is purely magical.
You're a good guy, Sam.
This makes me want to write little notes and put them anywhere for people to find and cheer up their day.
I think I will now.
I hope Katie dosnt write little notes for every other random person, I'd be so much more magical if it was a one time thing.
What a beautiful experience. But to all those who don't understand the nap in Central Park... Central Park is full of people on nice spring days...many napping and relaxing. It's no big deal. We do it all the time!
Oh Sam.
Something about this picture, and your comments is making you seem oh so appealing.
This is amazing.
strange that she left her name, almost as though she wanted you to have an image of her. i would love this to happen to me, but unfortunately where i live you get robbed if you fall asleep in public! this is so gorgeous, amazing how a little thing like this can change a persons day :) yours, and everyone who sees it here. thanks for sharing!
Hello again everyone.
Sometimes when I'm feeling down I'll take a glance at the note. I was thinking of having it framed and put it on my wall, but that might be a little too ostentatious. I think I'll keep it between me and you all.
Anyway, today was one of those days.. I'm just not feeling so hot. On the plus side, the weather is abnormally nice today -- it almost feels like spring. I'm about to go to the met (Metropolitan Museum of Art), and then to central park, or vice versa. Maybe something cool will happen. [Katy from NYC: you are are welcome to try and stalk me.]
I wish I could respond to every one of you, but I have to get going! I'll be back soon to write some replies.
-Sam
... to Jenni, Heidi, Mollie, Lindsey, Liz, and the other 'moved' people here: If you believe that we reap what we sow in life... don't wait for 'it' to happen to you. Become an inspiration in someone's life. Uplift, encourage, and expect nothing in return. I travel extensively and don't seem to ever get to know people. A favorite pleasure of mine is to leave a 30-40% tip to that waiter or waitress who shares a warm smile, or who is struggling to raise a child by themself, or who perhaps just seems to need encouragement. I usually leave a word or two of encouragement or appreciation on the check. And I definitely leave before they pick up the check.... so my motives will not become suspicious. I hope I can encourage one of you someday...
-Dan
i think it is true love;
its that simple!
it makes me smile
and gives me and everyone else hope
Anyone who finds this creepy is a total boor with no sense of romance who will probably live a life that seems a great deal too long. This is a pretty cool story, and although I am oh so curious to know who Katie is, in all honesty we are probably better off left wondering. The imagination leaves us with a sense of wonder that reality never can. Kudos on a memorable and flattering experience in a city built on dreams.
Oh Sam.
So much effort to attempt to stalk such an enigma.
maybe tommorrow i'll take a nap myself in the park, and you will see my mass of curly red hair, or watch my eyes as i write in my journal and approach.
Dan, that's so nice of you. I waited tables in college and whenever someone did something like that it made my night and totally made up for all the over-demanding, under-tipping jerks. It actually made me like people again.
One of my only celebrity sightings was in Central Park: Conan O'Brian! I wish he would leave me a note like this. Maybe I'll go take a nap there this weekend if the nice weather holds out.
It'd be nice if that Katy that's posting is the same Katy. Sam, pay attention!
Oh Sam...You have to frame this and keep it somewhere private at home,on the wall or on a table,and whenever you're feeling blue take a moment and re-create how it made you feel when you first saw it.It will make you feel special.Bathe in that glow when you're down.
This is, hands down, my favorite Find.
Aww, I wish I could find something so sweet. But no one here would ever do something like that. Unless it's a girl, like the creator of this sketch. But I want a guy to do something sweet like that for me! =[
has anyone came across the thought that maybe the notebook he wrote in to the girl,was actually katy....maybe she didnt want himt o know her name, so she lied said she wasnt and had no idea who did it,she was near him no,and she did have a notebooke, and the picture was drawn on notebook paper,maybe he had actually really had met her.....how romantic....and maybe he had actually had repaid her with the notebook comment...
Sam...I love your found item, and I love what you wrote in the girls notebook :) very suave!
oh boy.
So...... did you find her yet???????? Sam, we are dying to know!
No I haven't found her... I hate to be pessimistic, and I usually am, but I don't think I will ever meet her. I have no idea what she looks like. I figure the only way for me to meet her is to go to the park and see a girl sketching somebody else, which would pretty much ruin it anyway.
And if I did meet her, she would probably end up being snotty and self absorbed, pretending she is a character from Sex and the City, like every other girl here, ugly, or all of the above.
Seriously, the best girls are from Texas.
-Sam
puhlease! all the girls in TX i know are shallow and rude.... then again, i AM in high school, so that could be why =)
Shallow, maybe, but not rude. Everyone I've met in Texas has been much nicer than the city folk here. That's probably because in Texas there is a lot of room, y'all don't have to live 20 feet to the left of somebody dying on the street and to the right of somebody who makes more in a month than you will in your life.
Also, I estimate the average breast size in Texas is a cup size larger than the national average. Anyone else notice this?
-Sam
well i bet the average dick size in NY is an inch smaller than the national average you jerk. you're shallow. im glad you never found Katie. if i were her, i would be thanking my lucky stars right about now that i didnt leave my last name.
If these last few 'Sam entries' are the real Sam,he does not deserve to meet such a special woman like Katie.Sam you disapoint me.
Stop your whining, everybody likes boobs.
Why did you start spelling her name as "Katy" when she left it as "Katie"?
This Find makes me smile =)
I draw people. But I rarely ever give them what I draw. And I never give a stranger their's.
Maybe I should.
you should.
ouch. this was so pleasant until the last few entries. i wish i hadn't read them.
kat - maybe you are overreating just a little? sam, was there a need to be crude? is it the "real" sam?
*sigh*
i /was/ uplifted until the last 5 comments or so. maybe people do suck at the core. how depressing. where's the drano?
What a wonderful moment...
It seems it's time to lay this thread to rest. Either the original Sam is a jerk, or someone is is pretending to be the original, and is a jerk. Either way, just like finding the original Katie would have ended in disappointment, so does Sam, the more you get to know him.
The magic is gone.
Why ruin a beautiful incident by trying to find her? THAT would make it creepy. In his mind she is angelic but in real life she will be insufficient after all this build up.
That is so awesome..
Wow, this find I think has the most responses. The description is much more impressive than the find itself. Cool!!!
That is incredible.
That's just wonderful~
I printed the pictrue out and hung it on my wall. To remind me that beautiful things CAN happen.
I hope you don't mind >w<
I draw people at school all the time.
I must start at least showing them these drawings~
To return to the actual item: Interesting that the head, shoulders and torso are well proportioned, down to almost the hips, and then the legs just kind of taper off...foreshortening, buried in the grass--or did the sleeper start to wake, so the artist hurried to finish? Or was the artist merely getting tired or distracted by something else? However it be, the sleeper seems "anchored" to the ground by the heaviness of sleep...
oh my god, i'm going to cry
I love this find, and I loved Sam's original posts. I have a sneaking suspicion (and a HOPE) that the last two "Sam" posts are fakes. In fact, to preserve the beauty of the find, I'm going to assume they are. P.S. The spam questions are getting trickier every day!
i've always wanted to leave notes for people. random compliments, like when my neighbors repaved their driveway. it looked really nice, i kind of wish i had a chance to tell them.
this gives me more courage to do things like that. :)
the last two 'sam' notes are fakes. Fairly obvious, i would think.
I agree with Mona Lisa. I hope that Sam is doing well with or without Katie.
As for the movie idea... I would call it "Oh Sam" and it would only feature the guy for about 10 minutes and then follow people's reaction from this site. Coolness... Ok, so if there's any movie producers/directors interested, let me know :)
Ynow, not to ruin the romanticism and the serendipity of it all, but did you know you could fingerprint this. Lead on paper is very sensitive though, and you would need to find the area where she pulled the paper off, hoping you havent in fact, smudged it.
This is beautiful. I wish Katie had waited for him to wake up.
I wish she had too. Things like this are just so special. It's like that far away love, shown only briefly in passing. It's a bit sad.
Purely wonderful! My friend met her eventual husband this way. He slipped her a note telling her she was the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen. They dated for a short time, then were friends for years, then he moved away and became a wilderness man (he was mod previously) then she moved to Minnesota, and happily ever after.
That's definitely my favorite find on here.
Maybe the magic would be lessened if they found eachother,but I don't think so.But it's amazing what can happen when you least expect it.
i hope you meet her again, i really do
wow, i havnt seen anything this beautiful since breakfast at tiffany's and slo. u should totally try and find her, she sounds hecka (dont mock, so-cal-ers) amazing. totally tallented and seems kind
Excellent! We should all do that once in a while. Even if we can't draw, the words are enough to lift ones heart.
I've got the film 'No Loves Me He Loves Me Not' but I've never watched it. Now I think I might.
Oh, and cute find.
I think you guys are being really harsh on Sam. I don't think there is anything wrong with a guy liking boobs. I think he was being himself and you guys judged him too quickly. I think the find is awesome and Sam is still cool for sharing it with us!
Sarah in SIN got it exactly right -- don't try to find her. Accept the beauty. And Sam, you got it right, too, by passing it along in the note you left in the notebook you borrowed.
It's nice to see sweet simple things like these happening in the city.
This is my favorite find so far
I wish I were beautiful so things like this would happen to me.
"katie" was probably a 60 year old fat paedophile
I love you all. I still haven't found her, but the pic is in my box of sentimental junk. It's my favorite.
This couldn't be more perfect.
I love YOU Sam!
craigslist missed connections
This is a simply beautiful find. Sam, you should find Katie, fall in love with her, steal her from her man, and marry her. This has the makings of a great romance movie.
*sigh*
I think this is the initial response of ALL who lay eyes on this find.
Tomorrow I will go out and see if I can generate something similar.
p.s.
I get the same fuzzy feeling when I drive through a Starbucks and pay for the person's order in the car behind me. I once paid for a $15 order and initially thought DANG! But when I pulled away I smiled, as I imagined them taking the coffees back to the office and explaining that they were FREE! It always makes me smile... Always.
t.
keep the faith!
wow. that is awesome. really beautiful, in an odd way.
I definitely smiled when I saw this.
What an awesome experiencial dream!
This is amazing. Katie's random act of kindness touched so many people.
She isn't meant to be found. That's what makes it so profound.
I still love this so much, i think about it quite a lot.
And i just realised, there's another dash under 'katie' like she was going to write something else but decided not to. I wonder what she was going to say, i don't know if i wish she had or not. The whole mystery of this is what makes it so special.
beautiful, honest. touching, inspiring, hope-instilling.
that is just one of the prettiest things i've seen in a long time - ai absolutely adore it
About falling asleep - when you're seriously tired, places start looking much more sleep-welcoming. I once fell asleep sitting on a bench at about 6am in a park in Oxford after I had to get up early.
Writing notes secretly in places in notebooks and suchlike which people will discover at a later date is something I've done and recommend - if only a short diary-type entry saying what you were doing when you wrote it and a little amusing message. A very cheering thing to find especially if you are working when you find it.
About the mystery: it's this which keeps you in a state of wonder, one of the most pleasing of all feelings.
What a delightful find.. and i love all the other people on these posts who practice their own random acts of kindness. Especially the Starbucks thing - that's a Godsend! :)
this gave me the warm fuzzies- and yes, try Craiglist Missed Connections- if you find her it could be fate, if you don't, then it wasn't meant to be...
Wow. Ive been kind of depressed lately, but this has made me want to start drawing people again. it's a really beautiful action. i knew hopeless romantics always win. . . .and maybe you should try to find her, even just to say thank you, because she probably has forgotten by now, or maybe not.. .
This is the best thing I have seen on this website. I can't believe it! Find her!
The comments ruin it. The person posting from Sam might not even be sam. If it is, it totally ruined the image I had of him.
"Higgy in Tennessee said:
No one else thinks this is creepy!? Honestly? Why'd you fall asleep in a park thats pretty dangerous. And youre not even certian if this is actually a female."
LOL... this matters? I would die for anyone to tell me I'm beautiful- man or woman or ape or squid.
this is really amazing and beautiful. I'm glad there are people in the world who do this.
this is beautiful
it's my favorite find
this definitely is the best thing ever. i wish i can sometime experience something like this.
I love this, it totally brightened my day. I love random acts of kindness. I hope you find her Sam, and even if you don't, at least you know there is one stranger out in the world who thought you were beautiful. It inspires me do do something similar. Also I love NY!
i love this; i think i've commented three times already. i just can't get over what an amazing thing this is to have happened.
http://thousandsofpossibilities.blogspot.com/
I can't believe I read this whole thread, but it is nice to see that other people are affected by this find too.
This is just beautiful. I think I am going to print this out too. Not only to restore my faith in people but to also be a better person.
Funny, if used properly, how much good a piece of paper and a pencil can make.
my absolute favorite.
i hope you find her.
pretty sketchy...
claire in garden state, if you ever come back to read this, thanks for posting your blog address. It's great -- very inspirational. O wise young person!
I still love this picture, and the story.
i REALLY wish something like this would happen to me. because i can get obsessed with people (mostly rock stars...not like ACTUAL STALKING, or even anyone i've ever talked to), and that would be pretty damn cool if someone felt the same for me. and also...it would mean someone thought i was beautiful. not just pretty, but beautiful. like the way i move and smile and all that. and i feel/have felt that way about many people, and i don't feel like i'm worthy of that. and that would mean...i AM. duh. ha ha, i come off sounding so emo here it's funny. i'm really usually more confident than this. sorry!
jonathan. thanks for commenting on claire's blog. I might not have gone there, if you hadn't. I dont think we give the young people enough credit. She seems like a lovely, intelligent, wiser than her years girl. a lot like my offspring, maybe.
wow!!
This is, by far, the best find I've come across on this site.
It seems like something that belongs in the movie Amelie...anyone seen it?
This find really makes me wish the ground was dry enough to start leaving notes everywhere. Come on, spring!
-Lille
Claire - Your blogspot has inspired me to break out of my notebook and onto the web. Thank you!
http://raptorwriting.blogspot.com/
Side note: I think this is the first time I have actually had to double check the spam question.
This reminds me of the day that the man behind us paid for our McDonalds because my husband had just gotten back from Iraq (I had written welcome home on the car). Never got to thank the man, never knew who it was. But the gesture has since been appreciated. :)
I absolutely love this! What a wonderful thing to do. My favorite post on this site!
And to claire in garden state, wow! I wasn't going to look at your website until I read Jonathan's post about how great it was. Absolutely brilliant! So wise for your age!
aw thanks <b>so much</b> everyone!
you're the nicest people ever.
It makes me happy that things like this still happen. I agree that it's Amelie-like. I love that film. These are hard times for dreamers..
I love it. I think that if Sam happens to one day meet Katie, that would be great, but I think the mystery of this random act is what makes it special.
But I did like the comment from Richard in Sussex (near the beginning of the comments) "Did she get your wallet?" it made me laugh!
This was the first thing i saw here and i was completely hooked. I love seeing that it is still one of the easiest finds to find.
That is like _the_ best thing ever... omg. I would be so happy if I got that, and also sort of sad over not meeting this person who apparently likes me... or my looks, but still, omg!! :D
My favorite find ever. I don't think it feels stalker-ish at all. Maybe if you kept finding them every time you fell asleep...
I used to draw people all the time around my college when they didn't know. I wouldn't tell them, and i wasn't expecting them to come find me. It just a really wonderful, random act of kindness
This does happen in the movie "He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not" and "Still Breathing." The story and drawing are definitely beautiful.
I have the most amazing news. I found her. It was unusually warm out today so I thought I would take a stroll down memory lane and I found myself not very far from the very spot where she drew me and there she was. The girl I had left the message for in the notebook. She had another notebook this time and she was sketching two children playing. I casually strolled up and sat beside her to see if she would recognize me or not. She was so absorbed in her work that I finally grabbed the notebook, threw it down, and gave her a big fat wet one right on the lips...Vault, get to it!
To the "Sam" above me.... RIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT-I-OOOOH! Surely.
Yeah right. Way to ruin so many people's hopes that this was really...ridiculous.
I wish I had never read the comments.
The picture and story are too beautiful for the desecration.
The picture is beautiful. The comments slowly destroy the fantasy. But that's what people do. We bring reality into most scenarios to be comfortable with the harsh truth. The comments that hurt the most were those who wished for something like this to happen to them. Make it happen. Write a letter, draw a cute pic, admire and share that not expecting anything back but just to say, "You're beautiful". Don't hesitate! Someone is waiting to be loved for at least a day. I believe that it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all. Oh, and Sam? I'm sure that you're an okay guy, and that notebook girl is not Katie. You want a movie ending? Make 100 copies, post them everywhere titled above, "Did you draw me?" and underneath the picture, "Because I love you" and this found magazines url site. Not only would you bring renued attention towards this beautiful picture, but maybe, just maybe, you will find Katie and she is everything you hoped for. Believe in her, man.
Patrick in Los Angeles
P.S. Texas huh? Ha! Well, your a guy anyways. My vice are eyes. And no ladies, it's not romantic. Eyes turn me the heck on. Oh Yeah! And aparently I love Slim Jims...
If I had that happen to me it would be a happy man. (I didn't all those comments, best to leave the magic unspoiled)
that would just be amazing
will the original person who posted this please contact me at your earliest convenience. Thank you.
Hello everyone. It's really so much fun to read all of the comments, even ones by fake Sam. It's been 3 years and I've nearly forgotten about the incident, so coming back here makes refreshes my memory and makes it feel much more significant.
I haven't found Katie, but I haven't much pursued her either. I do wonder why she drew me and who she is... but I think in this case it's better left a mystery.
It's still a goal of mine to learn how to draw well enough so that I can pass out things like this, knowing full well the impact it holds.
To whomever is concerned, you can e-mail me here:
