Instant Coping

I started watching "Star Trek:TOS" with the intention of eventually viewing the entire series, but much like classic "Dr.Who", there's too much dialog for me to keep up with while I have toddler running around the house, opening things and getting into stuff she shouldn't. So, I've opted to watch the 90's "Spider-Man" cartoon 'cause I can miss a minute of it and catch up pretty easily.

Classic Media

I'm almost 30, and I'm still interested in a lot of the same stuff I was into when I was a 5-year old, such as dinosaurs, robots, superheroes, ninjas, and badass-ed-ness.

Take Aim!

Now that our daughter is 8 weeks old, she's "leveled up", and has gained some new abilities", like looking at us in the eyes, being able to hold up her head pretty well, smiling ( and not just because she has gas), and being alert and awake more and more often. All of which are awesome to see, but the latter development has made it much more difficult to draw this strip on a regular basis.
I'm not complaining or anything (well, publicly, anyhow); I just want it to be known I have a genuine excuse for living my life without thoroughly documenting it. Of course, no one was emailing me threatening letters and demanding that I return to my drawing board to crank out some scribbles, anyhow... but, my point remains!

In other non-news, if you're friends with me on Facebook, you've probably already seen these pics of Kennedy (which were taken by our friend, Kelly Lawson), but if not, here's my little girl;

A Simple Life

It's been pretty awesome staying home with Shannon and the baby during my paternity leave, doing the house-husband gig of cooking and cleaning, and just watching my daughter grow day by day, but it's about time to "bring home the bacon", yet again. I went in to work yesterday, and will go a few more times this week, but next week, it's back to the daily grind (and probably a lot less drawing time). Don't get me wrong, I have a cool job; My boss is an understanding guy, I like my co-workers, and there are a lot of perks... but, it's not what I wanna do with my life, so to me, it's just a paycheck.

Completely "Lost"

It's really hard for me to remember what the hell is happening on "Lost".

When we first started watching the show, the first season or so was already on DVD, so we watched it via 'Netflix', and we were hooked. From around that point, we watched it week to week, and did our best to keep all the mysteries and clues straight (with Shannon clearly having the upper in every area related to memory). Then they had that giant period of time where the writer's strike was taking place, which was where I had just enough time to essentially forgot everything that was happening within the show, and to start focusing on other shows, such as Dr.Who. I watched most of Season 5 (of Lost, I mean), but dropped off at the end, and decided to just wait until the series finishes. But...

Although I managed to go a couple of months without having the ending of Battlestar Galactica spoiled before I watched it, Lost is probably way too popular for me to get away with that again. So, I jumped back in and watched the last 2 episodes of Season 5, right before viewing the newest episode when it aired the other week. But, there's probably no way I would have been able to figure out some semblance of what-the-hell was going on if I hadn't watched the summary video on "Youtube".

A Variety of Uses

I'd probably light cigarettes with my laser gun, 'cause that would be badass.

Quality Time...(again)

Today is the first day, in the history of this strip, that I have accidently chosen a title which I had previously used on another comic. Drat! Still, that's not too bad a record considering we're at 250-something posts.

New Year, New Hangover

Ug... Hangovers seem much harder to get over these days. I told my friend, Matt, that maybe it had something to do with drinking less nowadays. He said that when you drink alot, hangovers aren't quite so bad because you're used to constantly feeling like shit, so its kinda normal. And vice versa if you only drink casually/occasionally.

I don't know, but its a good theory.
