Laid up and Learning

So, I've broken my heel. Yes it is possible, but not without a substantial amount of effort. Effort in this case, a high speed transaction between the earth and my flip flop covered left foot. I now have a customized wardrobe accessory, so customized in fact that you couldn't purchase this at any high end department store.

The upside to dealing with the pain, is that I have had some free time on my hands. My wonderful wife and daughter bought me a Wacom Drawing Tablet for fathers day which was perfect timing. I have always wanted the control that a tablet provides, however, there is a nasty learning curve. I had to give away close to a day of my life in order to learn "the way of the pen". I've heard something about it being mightier than the sword, not sure if this applies digitally (that's a word) or not?

I've watched countless tutorial videos on almost the entire Adobe Web Design Suite, cramming what would normally take me months into a few days.

I have the next 6 weeks ahead of me with zero plans of doing anything that requires more than one foot on the ground. I'm looking forward to dusting off some archived photos and trying some of my newly learned techniques in my Mac built darkroom.
