Blame Rock and Roll

Hey everybody - Sorry, but the new comic will be out a little late. I just joined a new band (3 girls and me, rrriot rock!), and spent the weekend rocking my face off, when I wasn't watching football (go Broncos!). Not that that is a good excuse, but I didn't have time to finish this week's comic. Please check back in a day or so, and I promise it will be out there!

Computer meltdown!

This has been an unfortunate week for me computer-wise. At work, my machine would not start at all. I ended up having to replace the power supply and a fried stick of RAM. Later in the week, my screen froze up completely, and after rebooting I found the filesystem was corrupted. I spent the rest of the afternoon fscking my drive, which thankfully did the trick.

But to complete the trifecta, this weekend while we were in the mountains on a snowboarding trip, my laptop (which I use for cartooning) booted up to a big blank screen. After some fruitless troubleshooting, I could only restore the factory settings, wiping out all my data and installed programs. The good news is that I have most everything backed up on an external drive. However, I will be a little late with this weeks comic - hopefully I can put it up early this week.

Vacation Procrastination

I probably won't be able to get a comic out on the usual Monday date this week. Julia and I decided to take a vacation to New Mexico for Memorial Day weekend, which precluded my comic productivity. Hopefully I'll have something ready by early this week.

New Mexico, by the way, is beautiful. The weather is sunny and dry, and all the buildings look like adobe huts and forts. We had some great micro brewed beer in Santa Fe, and we learned a bit about the dinosaurs that roamed the New Mexico flood plains. Go New Mexico!

Delay

Sorry but due to illness and a busy schedule, this week's comic will be late. In the meantime, you should check out Achewood if you haven't already - perhaps the best comic ever (start from the beginning!).

Been Sick, Thus Another Delay

I came down with some sort of evil flu and fever during the week, and it hasn't let go yet. That didn't stop Julia and me from trying frisbee golf for the first time today with a couple of our friends (the weather has been gorgeous here in Denver), but nontheless I feel pretty awful. Trying to sit down and cartoon just didn't work, so I must apologize and promise a new strip sometime early this week.

Comic Late Today

Today's comic will have to wait until after I get back from work this evening. We had an action-packed weekend, touring the local Denver bars, celebrating a friend's birthday, seeing an amazing show by Brazilian Girls on Saturday, and just returning from a Decemberists show tonight. Denver rules, but I need to catch my breath, whew.
