AOL say bye bye
Been fun while it lasted but I'm clearly not welcome. See you all at my new home at: http://bobopuppyhead.blogspot.com/ (I was going to make that a hyperlink but it looks like AOL disabled my ability to post html code too. Classy!) Share the love with anyone who you think might appreciate it.

sorry for the bad news
I just came home to an email from the AOL terms of service people. It seems some of my content has been judged to breech the terms of service of my account and has been removed. So if you look back and certain comics are missing that's why. I'm going to go ahead and post as normal for now but assuming they're watching this it's only a matter of time before my account is cancelled. Oh well. All good things must come to an end, right? I'm going to look into getting myself a domain name but since I'm going away for a week that'll just have to wait. As I said. I plan to post as normal and I do not intend on editing myself so if this site disappears you know why. Sorry, dudes.

Bartleby the scrivener

Today's strip falls into the category of "I think it's funny whether or not it amuses anyone else so I'm going to post it, so there, nyaaah!"
Hands up know knows what I'm alluding to? Don't Google it! Who really knows? I'll give you a cookie...
Anyhoo... Tonight is all about resting up for my big weekend. I'm so excited I can't even see straight. I've been smiling all week long. My vacation is going to kick such ass!

And what a cozy box it is

The theme for this week is waking up in a great mood. I hate to tell you this but I did it again today.
Sorry the blog has gotten so boring recently. My new job's going well. *BO-RING!* My social life is slowly but surely taking a turn for the better. *HO-HUM!* I have a big fun trip to Europe coming up. *SNORE!* If I keep up this attitude I think I might just drive all you guys away, huh? I'll try and see what I can do about squeezing some angst in next week ... when I'm in the fucking Netherlands! :-p

Two questions, one answer

Is there something fundamentally wrong with me because I have less and less to say here the happier I am? I'm busy preparing for my trips. I'd be busy even if I wasn't. I'm smiling right now (I wrote this last night) and I'm looking forward to getting a good night's sleep and waking up with another big smile on my face. My brain's just packed with good stuff right lately. Why didn't I do this ages ago? What was I thinking? It's fun to have fun!

Mating call

I woke up in the best freaking mood today. (Hmmmm... I wonder why? :-) The job went well yesterday but not well enough to be the culprit.
I'm really glad my life has changed so much since 6 months ago. I was so miserable back then and it wasn't anybody's fault but my own. I look at where I am now and where I was then and it hardly seems like the same person. Last week and this week have just been very full, rich, busy, wonderful weeks. I've had plenty of fun things to do and nothing has been going wrong. Can you BELIEVE that? Everything seems to be going my way. Go fig! I'm going back down to Florida this weekend to see my friend down there and I cannot wait. Then I'm going to the Netherlands and staying a week with my friend there. How fucking cool is that?
I'm just looking forward to my life in a way that I forgot I was capable of. It feels nice. It makes me want to call up all my friends and say thanks.

Blind(ed) date

I've had my issues with my soon-to-be-former job. I've had days and weeks and months that I've fought my way through minute by stifling minute. I've been powerless to cope with the blinding unhappiness of the situation I found myself in. I've wrestled overpowering feelings of oh-my-God-I'd rather-be-in-Botswana-getting-my-hands-chopped-of-by-religious-zealots-than-typeset-another-stupid-fucking-business-card. Thankfully those times are behind me. And thankfully I was surrounded by genuine and forgiving people. People who didn't hold it against me if I was stressed and I snapped at them. People who tried to give me a laugh when they could and left me alone when I needed to stew in my own bitter juices. People who made me feel welcome.
Right now, this very second, I work with the best people. By six o'clock today that will no longer be true. It's sad to think I might not enjoy that sort of homey feeling anywhere else I'll go. It's sad to think I didn't take better advantage of the potential connections I could have made with these guys. But I love these guys for who they are and the time we've had. I'm going to miss them and how comfortable they made me feel even though I can be a pill sometimes.
So, thanks.

As much or as many as the hand will grasp

Whoops. Sorry, guys but I was too busy last night and this morning catching up on sleep to even think about what'd I'd write here. Maybe tomorrow I'll write about how much I'm going to miss the people I work with (not the work, though.)

Carrot dangle

I really like a good cookie.
There is no subtext to this strip. I just really like a good cookie. You believe me don't you?
