I Can Draw Again

March 3rd, 2008 · No Comments

The splint and the exercises and the rest and the using my left hand more often (hey, now!) are finally beginning to pay off. Last night I was able to draw a full page of Wanderlost without any pain. I’m still taking it easy, so the page won’t appear until tomorrow. But it will be [...]

Wanderlost: Still Recuperating

February 26th, 2008 · No Comments

Drawn in 100% Sharpie! I’ve been doing exercises, as sent to me by the kindly and thoughtful arcana_j , but I overdid it the other day, incurring the throbbing soreness up my whole arm. So more rest. Also, like quirkybird , I succumbed to inexplicable fatigue this weekend. I was okay on Saturday – entertaining [...]

In Contempt: And Still Resting

February 21st, 2008 · No Comments

A new cartoon will appear next week Tuesday. Honest. The hand and arm no longer tingle, feel numb nor sore. Monday’s Wanderlost (aka Sheldon) will likely appear in B&W. And now: McCain. I don’t feel the salient issue of the NY Times piece is his alleged affair with telecomm lobbyist Vicki Iseman. For one thing, [...]

In Contempt: Still Resting

February 19th, 2008 · No Comments

Thanks to Lisa R. Jonte for sending me the CTS exercises. They have already begun to help. I am giving my hand another day’s rest, so no toon today. But I plan to have a cartoon on Thursday. Meanwhile, what is not to like about this headline from Science Daily? Giant Frog Jumps Continents, May [...]

Wanderlost: No Piggy Today

February 18th, 2008 · No Comments

Don’t worry, this took two minutes with a Sharpie. Otherwise I am typing left-handed, scanning, all the rest of it. The right hand is laying back on a beach in the Mediterranean, sipping a tall, cool drink and thinking about snorkling topless. (That’s right, my hand has boobs.)

Repetitive Stress Injury

February 16th, 2008 · No Comments

Damn, damn, damn this getting old bullshit. My right arm and hand are numb. I can still use them, but I need to rest them. Jenn recommends 24 hour rest and regular use of ibuprofen to reduce swelling. If things don’t improve by Monday, I’ll go see the doc. Groan. At my work computer I [...]

In Contempt Went to Bed

February 12th, 2008 · No Comments

I posted this last night, then went to bed. There seems to be a cosmic conspiracy to deprive me of sleep. Even last night I was awoken at 3am, because Owen’s night light went out due to a power outage in my neighborhood caused by some drunk slamming into a power substation. Then the smoke [...]

Wanderlost "Tongue-Tied" Page 16

February 11th, 2008 · No Comments

Another B&W page update, I am sorry to say. The usual reasons: work, family, and lack of sleep due to post-nasal throat irritation. I got some meds to work on it. Bleh.
