So, the strip has resumed. Time management, the people have spoken... myriad influences converged at just the right time to make it possible. Among other things, the heat wave broke just a little bit, so I'm in a good mood.

I have no excuses. But there will be a new week's worth of updates starting Monday, Aug 13. This I promise. Reader letters have guilted me into it. Plus, it's too hot to go outside.

I'm still here-- I'm just busy learning CSS and attending classes. Can we hope for a new strip this month? Man, I hope so.

Instincts to guide us through this barking world? I can stand a little Sparks before going to bed, but not, as it turns out, Radiohead. "Talent is an asset, and little Albert has it."

Peter Schilling, man, Peter Schilling. Between him and A Flock of Seagulls, I can't keep my brain on the planet. Can ELO be far behind? Voellig schwerelos!

It's bee a rough time at home, but there should be new Alas strips starting on April 9th. I'm determined to get in another Friday the 13th strip!

It is so cold here today that I found myself deeply regretting getting acclimatized to the Mid-Atlantic. Maybe I should take weekend constitutionals to Greenland to get my Hoosier durability back.

In other news, this weekend I went to see Cirque Eloize's show entitled Rain. One of the commandments of my old dorm clique was "Thou shalt not be French," but Cirque Eloize is Canadian, and most of the tumblers are actually Polish, so it's okay. I highly recommend it-- people cavorting and contorting and fitting into suitcases. Lai de dai de dai...

I'm not dead, I'm just goofing off. But February will be a regular production month-- it has to be. Too many birthdays to keep track of.

Cold winds whipping through DC? Sorry, January-- too little, too late. No snow day for me.

It's not great, but Wednesday's strip is now presentable. Expect more strangeness as I procrastinate starting the next big storyline.
