I miss being able to feel my toes.
It’s winter again. Every year when the cold first sets in I’m okay with it. I find myself thinking “My what a good Canadian I am, walking to work in the cold and smiling all the way. Bring on the snow!”. Then January hits, inevitably the heat in my building fails, I sit in my living room wrapped in blankets, wearing a polar fleece robe covered in teddy bears I’ve had since 1994, three pairs of socks and a toque, fake fireplace running full blast. My what a good Canadian I am.
But despite it all, this year I’m not in the living room, but in the studio, still wrapped in blankets and the heats not working, but I am.

While you’re here, check out the posters for the next Small Print event. It’s going to be a blast!

I’m going to make some hot chocolate…
