Telltale

There are a lot of things one can do on the clock. “Work” is just one of those things. (Drawn by request for a friend’s workplace situation, but universally relatable.)

What’s your favorite thing to do on the clock?

So here’s the thing. Lately, I’ve been getting up early and sitting outside on the back deck and drawing comics by myself for an hour or so, usually in my underwear, with the crows watching from the trees up above and the dog panting under the table. It’s the best I’ve felt in ages.

I’m trying to figure out how to spend more of my time doing exactly what makes me happy, as a person whose brain truly struggles with…..you know, being happy ever. Life is short, and I just want to cook food, produce shows, make comics, and hang out with a few special folks that don’t make me feel lonely.

I just want to figure out if maybe I dream big enough, maybe I can spend most of my time doing just art and shows? But I would really need your support, darlings. I really would.

When you find yourself feeling calm, and cared for, and like life has the capacity to be sweet, what are you doing? What would it take to do more of that?

If I really love you, sometimes I’ll make you snacks.

If I really hate you though….

Which one would you send to your enemy?
