Boredom, pride, etc.

I drew this on a post-it note while at a medical-resident get-together. Repeatedly put me on the Tilt-a-Whirl, and give me a basketball, and something like this might happen. Put me in a room full of people talking about nothing (but work), and something like this might get illustrated.

At right is a response to a professor's challenge to draw a "silent comic." True, it's got captions, but I'm sort of proud of it nevertheless. The last two panels were drawn several months after the first six, which were meant to be little more than "thumbnail" sketches for something more polished. I grew to like the scribbly look of it all.
