I've been a little stressed out lately... [Feb. 9th, 2007|12:40 am]

Actually, the stress combined with the cold, is actually breaking my body down! I'm sick again. Between all my extra-curricular projects, and trying to graduate and comprehend math all over again (click here to see my notes from my math class), I've been living in constant "finals-week-mode."

It is now so cold in my kitchen/bathroom that my space heater BROKE, and two lightbulbs have exploded.

Today, in class, a nice internet-friend came up to introduce himself and compliment my work in real life, and I was so harried and ill that I acted like a shy, spastic toddler, who had never seen another human being.

But in honor of the latest Hannibal Lecter movie, I shall now UTTERLY SPOIL THE MOVIE (having read the book as soon as it came out) and I give you:

Besides awesome, I mean... cause he's absolutely adorable. ;)

I have no idea. A manifestation of my stress?

I feel your ills, Lucy. I have a full time job, a part time job, and the comics. I've been working on finishing this one story for weeks during my lunches and at everyopportunity. This week it finally came to a head and my body said "hell no!" Now I'm sluggish and sniffly but getting it done.
I liked your "math notes."

for some reason your floating stress manatee reminded me of this:


I'd rather have a manatee.

Your Hannibal Rising Comic is the best thing ever. It really really made my day.

And I'm sorry about your space heater.

Manatees are old and wise and have many stories of the sea...

HAHAHA!!! I've been feeling so stressed and crabby all day and this combined with the manatee (so much manatee love)has made me feel so much better. Thanks! :)

I think there should be more manatee comics. Would you care to collaborate on one some time? I drew polar bears a little while ago, and would also like to draw manatees. Sara recommended that I contact you.
