All my bags are packed
Im ready to go
Im standin here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin
Its early morn
The taxis waitin
Hes blowin his horn
Already Im so lonesome
I could die

There I was, happily minding my own business. Driving home from work late on a firday night. BAM! Someone reversing against the traffic hits me. I don't mind if my head bounces off the windscreen like a squashball. It was the fact that the seatbelt strap just happened to wrap across my scar. A scar that wraps up to my hip. Strange how everything starts to hurt days after an accident. Last night was the worst. Mind, I have dissolving stitches in there so it may well be those little blighters finger snapping their way out. Either way, i've never gone through that sort of pain. It's like getting a snapping pain or jab with a hot knife when you really don't want it.

Somedays you just feel like :

Some people take life too seriously.

Jon has been busy creating more work for himself, this time yet again he makes for a good laugh. He's even registered the website 101usesforajohnhoward.com

Jon has been using the Cintiq from Wacom to do his cartoons. It certainly speeds up the process of cartooning and with software like Painter.

I am recently back from an extended stay in hospital. Having had surgery that meant a few days stay was abruptly changed when the site was infected. Well according to the doctors, not an infection as such but a reaction which was deemed necessary to hit with the heavy artillery of days on a I.V. drip antibiotic.


Photo for the squeamish, that's my arm with the I.V. in the vein, ready to go :)

So after a few days on the juice, the "reaction" subsided and an extra week of oral antibiotic was prescribed just to make sure the infection went away completely.

I'm now ready and waiting for action, they have rebuilt me. I am a new man. I await to test the strength of their skills. Mwuahahaha...
