I would highly recommend this strategy to anyone who is moving to a new place. It really does make you feel instantly more comfortable in your new home. Karaoke is weirdly intimate. Remember Lorne from Angel? He could read people's destiny when they did karaoke. The basic idea that people bear their souls when singing is a pretty sound theory.
Plus, when you go to the grocery store or whatever later, you can see people and just think to yourself "I remember when you sang Blue's Traveler, you can't hide yourself from me, deli worker!"
Also, happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Cross-country move checklist: Internet set up? Check. Cats made the trip? Check. Stuff arrived unbroken? Mostly check. Studio set up? Like half a check. So I'm back in business!
Regular comic updates should resume now, so keep an eye on this page every Wednesday for a new page! Also, watch Dumb Ideas for new comics on Sundays and follow my tumblr for sketches, doodles, pictures, and anything else you could want!
I'm still finishing up some moving stuff, but once that's all squared away I'll be working on getting my store set up and online! I'll give information as I get it!
Interesting fact: this drawing is perfectly to scale and could be used to navigate the city. So if you are ever visiting Oakland, just print out this picture, throw away all your maps and your phone, and just use this drawing to get around.*
So, this comic will probably be taking a couple weeks off while I move across the country to my new home since I will not have access to my computer or to the internet for some time. I will try to throw up some little updates on my tumblr throughout my move. So keep an eye on that for updates.
*please don't do this
Too much time on a plane. Too much moving stress. Too much computer... not... working. Just a whole lot of problems! Oh well. I'm falling way behind on my comics, and I can almost guarantee that when I'm actually in mid-move, I will miss at least a week, but we can all hope that I have a computer and internet available!
