Freedom!

Whew! I can't tell what a relief it is not to have to worry about doing double-duty as a graphic artist/cartoonist. This is my second day officially on sabattical from my day job at the St. Petersburg Times. In addition to that job, I also draw two daily cartoons, which leaves me with zero free time and absolutely no social life. Today I woke up and drew 3 "Working It Out" cartoons and still had time to enjoy the day. That's strange to me. Usually I spend my Sundays trapped in my studio from morning till midnight. Very, very cool. I managed to get three cartoons done today. I'll to do more tomorrow.
