Happy New Year!

I spent the day in the ER waiting for X-rays. I broke my foot while trying to pull on my winter boots on at around 11 p.m. on New Year's Eve (I tripped and fell on my foot in a funny way, and it made a not-so-funny crunching noise). Only I thought I had just stubbed my toe, so I limped to a really good party anyway. It wasn't until I could barely wiggle the toes on my swollen black and blue foot this morning that I was sure it was actually busted. Also--since I have RSI problems with my wrists and elbows, using crutches is nearly or equally as painful as just stepping on my poor mushed-up excuse for a foot.

What a great start to 2009!

Well, on the plus side it's likely that things will get better...

I hope things get better soon, Mikhaela!

That story reminds me of the time I badly twisted an ankle on wet stairs--a couple of hours before I had to leave for a conference. It wasn't broken, thankfully, but I wound up hobbling my way across two enormous airports in Houston and Atlanta, each step an adventure in pain. There's nothing like a badly timed injury, huh?

I hope that you can stay off it as much as possible until it heals,

M,

It has been 22 days now. I hope you're feeling better, and don't need crutches anymore. You haven't posted anything in quite a while and it's time.

In one of your earlier blog postings you stated “WTF”. I would like to stress the point that this is a justified point of view. Believe it or not I can answer that question for you.

I think therefore I am unfortunately, I'm alone here in the wilderness. A person who will remain nameless, said that many people are saying Obama is the Antichrist. Then on the 20th I heard that there were demonstrators chanting this.

So I'll just say it straight out, it's called cover your ass!

He's definitely got style, but we need a pretty hard-core lefty to set things right.

I hope you get to feeling better, and start posting again. Meanwhile, I feel like giving up on the blog world completely. It appears that most of those men and women involved in the world of illustration and animation are simply and absolutely spineless.
