Seriously. At work I have the joyful job of trying to get people to contribute to the United Way or whatever other charity might approach us. Apparently last year we hit a decent enough number and I got a certificate, essentially, for bugging people for money. Talk about your odd pats on the back.

Trading brush-like line differences for the moment for the contrast between pen widths. I really like the way the main items pop out from the background (desk) on panels 1 and 2. I suppose a gray wash would have helped do the same for panel 3 but, honestly, I was a bit afraid of screwing it up! Still, I really like the drawing of myself in the last panel. Quite satisfactory.
