I don’t drink. But funny enough, only now, at 40, do I feel the peer pressure to do it. I don’t want people to think I’m such a pill for not drinking. And I don’t want to not be invited anywhere because I don’t drink. So I’ve devised a plan. I will say that I’m an alcoholic. I figure that I’d get more respect for having a disease than being a prude. Even though by doing so, I am being a big, fat, disrespectful liar. Which I’d also rather be than a prude.

When I draw in my sketchbooks, I rarely have a plan. This sketch is no different. I started with the red figure. Then the black figure happened and evoked a feeling in me of love and gratitude. I am thankful for my friend who I needed all of last week and who was there for me and still is. Always. And I mean ‘always’ in a good way.
