Trying to Capture a Sock Animal Get Together
Thank you all for the “you don’t suck” comments. It’s always nice to know you don’t suck. 
I do enjoy drawing my comic very much and I don’t see myself stopping. I think it’s just a matter of me managing my time better. So with that in mind I started drawing this earlier in the day instead of at 11pm at night. That’s when I’m rushing to get it under the wire for my, self imposed, drawing a day. Silly really if you think about it.
Oh and if I ever think about coloring sock animal drawings again…somebody slap me! It took forever. I think after the first pane I was about to pull my hair out. I almost ran screaming from the computer. 
But I kept going. After the second pane I wanted to scratch my eyes out. But I was halfway done so kept going with much kicking to myself. It’s so much easier to draw a pattern on socks than on sock animals. And for a daily comic I sooo should have done this without the color.

I think that’s as good of a picture as I’m going to get of them all together.

I LOVE your little strips (I discovered your blog while being bed-bound with pneumonia). They bring a smile to my face every morning. My 2 are just getting past that age (7 and almost 4) so it brings a smile to my face to remember the sweeter moments of toddler-hood.

Those are darn cute. I would never be able to see socks in the store and think of animals. Wonderful!
