005: The cold snap

One of the funny things about Florida... it gets cold. After over a decade here I know I will need a coat, but that doesn't stop Floridians from being surprised by the low temps every single year. They will wait for the spring as if the month and a half of cool temps were a divine punishment.
Sure, there are some Floridians who just love the cold, but they are the minority around me. I blame the sunshine; after a while one gets addicted to the glow, the warm slow bake and the whole wintery cold rain can quickly turn anybody into a whiny withdrawn sunshine junkie.

Watching people rush from buildings into their cars feeling perplexed that it is winter never gets old... very quick and rough sketch made out of composites from people I observed in the street and from memory.

Sometimes I venture out into the world, this means I don't get access to the comments section of the blog, which in turn means I can't moderate them and approve them.

Yes, I read and approve every message left here, so don't worry if your message doesn't show up right away, it means I haven't read it yet! I'll always get it when I get back to the internets (proper ones anyway), I will make sure to check.

Thanks so much for any messages, I love receiving them!
