My old blog posts will be back soon. I’m just… Well, there’s some technical jiggery-pokery underway. In the meantime, you can find those posts here.

Erm, didn’t mention my husband, who is still my darling after 13 years. (It’s work — ironically — to keep things simple, but we’re doing the work.)

I also didn’t mention my work-work, which, after 25 years, is easy to take as a given — until I remember that it’s anything but. I couldn’t ask for better on that front.

Here’s a short YouTube video about my Saturday morning drawing sessions and making this diary comic.

I am unreasonably happy about this pencil sharpener I bought at The Bookmark yesterday. It gives you five different lengths/angles you can sharpen at, from short & stubby (good for coloured pencils) to long and thin (for sketching pencils).

I think I’m as excited about this $8 sharpener as some guys would be about a Lamborghini. Except you can’t make anything with a Lambo.
