Day at the beach

I spent the day at the beach.  I worked there, actually: drawing for my job at the studio.  I have an Asus slate and I can draw right on the screen.  It's a fabulous little device, and it allows me to do my work remotely while I'm here in Guam ... and while it's a little on the pricey side, I couldn't recommend it more.

My day at the beach got me thinking about how much time I used to spend in the water, and how much that used to frustrate my family.

I wrote a comic on this very subject a few years ago.  Here it is:

      They're amazing. Trust me! I can't say the same for Asus support, unfortunately, but the unit itself is the best piece of technology I've ever owned.

      The story of Sirena is told throughout the Pacific Islands. I heard it a lot growing up, and then one day I dreamt it! One of my favorite all time dreams.

    The sea is such a magical and powerful thing! I loved this story when I read it and I think it's also a nice metaphor about parents who were too hard on their children.
    Hope you're doing well Tera! :)
