The Double-Edged Blade of Inspiration

the_gneechWatching and reading all this Love Hina has really inspired me, and is really helping me sort out my thoughts, feelings, and priorities about my creative work -- not just in terms of Suburban Jungle but also my long-term artistic/writing career. I've really been banging out the artwork at night, at a speed and level of quality (given that speed) that I've been quite pleased with.
The problem is, I don't become UN-inspired when I'm at work -- which makes my 8 hrs at Circle Solutions a looooooong drag of time. I feel like I'm at school again, bored out of my skull and staring at the clock, or possibly a kid in the back seat of a car, going, "Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"
(Circle: "Don't make me turn this work day around, mister!")
I've managed to sneak in bits of scripting and a little sketching here and there around projects at work, but even that has to be done in small doses and on the sly. I want to jump in and do FULL IMMERSION CARTOONING, dammit!
Le sigh. Only an hour and 13 more minutes 'til quitting time...
