88-3: Ignore the Clay Man

Seriously though, that speech gets old. It's so easy to tell someone else it will all be alright, but when you're dealing with heartache, it becomes a completely different problem, and anyone who seems to belittle your pain suddenly becomes an asshole in your eyes.

Apologies for the late, late, incredibly late (like, a day late) update. Last night I told myself I had plenty of time and would work on it at 10, then I told myself I would work on it at 1, then I did it but only as far as the initial sketches and told myself I would finish in the morning, then I woke up and watched TV and told myself I would do it in the evening, then we went to Relay for Life (an event to help find a cure for cancer), and I told myself I would do it tonight, and then I ended up staying LONGER, and told myself I would do it whenever I got home, then I ended up not getting home until, like, 1.

At least I got it up, right?

It was weird, too, I just drew Edy in a jacket for Wednesday's comic because I thought "Well, it's warm here but maybe it's still cool at night for them." But tonight it was freaking cold, if I knew that'd happen I'D have worn a jacket. I could see my breath!

So now I'm glad for my decision. I still like that Gary's casually undone his labcoat though. And again the strange clash of color and monochrome that I'm sure we're all used to now.
