I haven't gone away...I'm still here, on the line. The last couple months have been really busy with moving continents, finding a place to live, figuring out a new city, walking the pampered pooch, not meeting new people, and not finding a job :)
And Drawingdan has not been the last thing on my mind...just one of the last things. It's hard to figure out what to draw next when you feel like you're a monkey who's been given the keys to a banana plantation. Where do I start?
I'd be lying if I said it's not overwhelming at times. You poke fun at a continent for years and then you end up in it. In that way I feel like a monkey holding a Gorillas banana ;) eeeep.
Politics: Half the time here I feel like a monkey with a banana sideways in my mouth. I just can't stop smiling from the things some people say or write ontheline. Of course it must be said that Zimbabwean, and South African Politics get pretty disastrous/hilarious/tragic/depressing/bizarre at times, but when it's home you feel way more involved. And you expect the power of the shower from African Politics. Just saying.
Everywhere is the same except where its different.
