And by the way, something everyone seems to have overlooked: your “gimme a break” cartoon is another example of your fine writing and great drawing skills. It really oozes melancholy and drives the message home perfectly (esp. with the disappearance of the girl in the last drawing). Even when you’re exhausted you manage to come up with a damn fine cartoon!

You’re a great artist Jeroen, so take all the time you need to reload those batteries!

Have a nice rest Jeroen! You definitely deserve it!

I will have a rest too – I’m escaping the city to relax in the serenity of the beach [with a margarita in my hand] for the Easter break.
Good god I can’t wait! ..This has been the longest week of my life.

I’ll have a margarita for you too!

@ Everyone: thank you so much for all your heartwarming comments!

@ speedy & gonzales: are we seeing something beautiful blossom here?

@ Ibid: that is a GREAT idea! Anyone feeling inspired?? You know how to reach me…

Considering your usual subject material I’d like to think that lack of inspiration means your life is getting better. That or it’s gotten so bad that the word “mercy killing” gets thrown around. I’m rooting for the first one.

Now is when you put out the call for fan art.

Do, do take a break – I feel exactly the same exhaustion as you do and I wish I had the luxury of being able to take some time off ..off life, actually. I hope Easter break will somehow resuscitate me. And that your rest is fruitful so we can read more of such touching HappySads as this one soon enough Enjoy the moment!
Hugs & see ya later!

Jeroen,

Enjoy your well deserved rest ! We’ll (barely) survive a little while without new cartoons.

I’ll sing you a lullaby to help you get some sleep:

Slaap kindje slaap
Daar buiten loopt een schaap
Een schaap met witte voetjes
Die drinkt zijn melk zo zoetjes
Slaap kindje slaap
Daar buiten loopt een schaap

zzzzzz….
