our winter discontentment

It's been a pretty brutal winter. In December, my hands were cracking and bleeding, which is sad and tragic and makes kittens cry, so I drew a poignant and flattering self-portrait to capture the emotional duress I was under at the time.

Since then, I have discovered Neutrogena Norwegian formula hand lotion and my hands no longer bleed, as they have become soft like the face and butt of a baby (not that I touch babies' butts...gross! That's just the idiom). Proof that Norwegia is a great place!
