i am a failed blogger.

There. I said it. My intentions are righteous, but most of the time I can't maintain the focus to keep this project going. Shana had a good idea a while back to get herself back in the swing of regular blogging. Not only was it fun for her and everyone else, but it worked, so I'm stealing it. Crush Month: one new thing to love every single day. Shana did August, and I hope I can do as well with December.

For my first crush of the month, I bring you a cartoon. It's a detail of a much larger storyboarded get-well card that a group of students made for one of my colleagues. It's hilarious and strangely poignant; I often wish I had this placard to wave around in times of crisis. Or at least a little flag version to stick on top of my inbox.
