Let’s begin with hair. Those of my head, in particular.
I cut my hair last week. I am not exaggerating in the slightest when I say that it was one of the best decisions of my past few years. I have missed my short hair years. I missed the short time it takes to dry, the weightlessness upon my head, the coolness on my neck, the amount of hair clips and hairbands I can use without needing to deal with everything else and the whole package, really. I feel like everything is right again with the world.
My job is one of the greatest pleasures of life right now; but my level of tired coincides with my level of activity and physical movement in general, and the happier I am, the more tired I tend to become. I draw a lot of work related things because it’s supremely interesting there, and the kids I teach are teaching me a whole new way of looking at life and people and everything. It’s great. I also have never been in that environment, so it’s just really, really fun.
Yellow is still going strong! I draw whatever I can whenever I can; and sometimes I draw extra things that aren’t comics for it too. I will include all the ones after my haircut in the next page! Hello old hairstyle.

I go to Brisbane for a week in the company of some family next week, and look forward to it immensely. I have bikinis and swimmers ready, my camera is ready for adventure and my sketchbook is ready for new people to draw! I will fill my mind with lots of pretty things and blog about it afterwards, I promise.
My mother is here with me until the end of the month as well. She’s wonderful, and being away from her for months makes me forget how fantastic she really is. I have missed her.
I will miss things while I’m gone, and love them twice as much when I’m back. I have things to do and to love and to honour and treasure. I’ll be back.
Write me,
Annie.
