Queasy Comics

The stomach bug that has been sweeping through my family finally hit me this weekend. I was so queasy and woozy and sleepy that I didn't even want to draw. I did make sketches for these comics, but I didn't finish them up until today. I do feel a bit better today--not quite as pathetic as these comics make me out to be!

The snowman is pronounced "Bquq"

And Worf is saying, "What's happening?" or "qaStaH nuq?", which he probably never said on the show, but it ends in an "uq" sound, so I used it. I did lots of research for this comic. Did you know there's a Bing translator for Klingon?

Now we jump!

And jump they did.

House keeper

We saw one of these yesterday. A big one. It was on the outside of the house, though, thankfully. I've only seen smallish ones inside so far. I always rescue spiders and take them outside (especially the ones that can eat cockroaches), but I don't even know how I would go about rescuing a 5-inch spider!

Girl with a Pearl Earring...and a backhoe

I passed some Vermeer equipment yesterday and this scene immediately leapt to mind. It was tremendously fun to draw!

Stomach Bug

Poor kid. He's completely fine now. He does like to remind us that he threw up, though.

Weekend comics

Three comics today--from Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It was a busy weekend with the recital (which went great!)

Quite an old keyboard

I think we got that keyboard around 1994 or so.

...I guess I need to keep practicing the tremolos.

It's a coffee bar called The Strangler Fig

Avoid the fig danish.

Chocolate Buckwheat Granola

See comic #2. It was delicious. Here's the link to the recipe!

Four-comic catch up.

Busy, busy, busy days. Too busy to post, but I made sure I drew! Four comics for you today, and I'm sorry if the last one gets some unwanted songs in your head....

Yeah, that's Simon on the climbing wall.

Chug-a chug-a, chug-a chug-a, whoo whoo!

I like making the train tracks, but Shawn seems content to drive them around, making the sound effects!

I had never had a cosmo before

Two comics! Monday and Tuesday. At some point I hope I'll be able to post every day again, but it's been a bit hectic just now. Soon! For now, enjoy these two!

The rehearsal went fine, actually.

Here are the comics from Saturday and Sunday!

It turns out the cellist was fine with Yo-Yo Ma's tempo. Hooray!

I'd like to hear this baroque ensemble

Here are the first two days of May!

Finishing April

I'm back at home and I've got the scanner again, so the comics will be a little clearer. Here are the three comics I've missed posting. I haven't quite finished yesterday's yet (oops), so I'll post that with today's comic later today or tomorrow.
