Baboons


Spent Sunday drawing, and trying to watch the Moto GP and Superbike races that were just a nightmare thanks to the satellite reception. I feel like every step forward seems to be two back, the end of the month looms and you wonder how you make ends meet, and I am able to less and less every month, I just don’t know how much longer this recession, which I think is more like full blown depression can go on.

Check it out if you can find it.
