i learned that a witch made a prophecy about eileen's life.
when she was six months old.
jealous?

let the sunshine in!

yo yo yo

I'm back in the saddle.
Abby yelled at me for not contributing enough to our collaborative blog...
so, here goes.

These are some drawings and comics I did while I was in Northern Ireland. I spent a semester there studying conflict, inventing cheese snacks and having bad luck. (go figure. go fig a fig newton.)


















(This last one was inspired by time my brother Brendan and I spent WWOLFing- working on an organic farm in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland.)



That's all I gots for now.
For everyone's information: this weekend is AQUARIUS BIRTHDAY FUNTOWN WEEKEND. Abby and I (and Paul Newmon and Ellen DeGeneres) will be celebrating our birthdays. Shower us with gifts and love. Give us showers. Bathe us. Get naked.

C'est quoi ce charabia?

CURRENTLY, I AM

head over heels for one Miss Lynda Barry. She makes me want to draw comics forever. I might mail her 3949 love-poem-comix, or at least as many as it takes to make her feel weird. And my estimated number is probably correct. I also learned that summers in antarctica means no set sun, we have an arctic wind storming towards us,
merci siberia.
all aboard-- for adventure.

HERE IS

AUedUIEU-yoyo

adieu.

a most amazing end.

the year 2007 ended in a remarkable way for me.
let me tell you all about it.
eileen and i were at the grocers, picking up tortillas for dinner.
as we were leaving, a fifty-something woman noticed my shoelace was untied.
she yelled to me, "hey! do you need me to tie your shoelace?"
i figured she was only letting me know. i said, "oh no, its alright! i'll get it later."
she stopped me, and said "no, here."
she knelt down. tied my shoe slowly, with so much care.
wrapped her hands around the ankle of the shoe to make sure it was snug, asked me if it was too tight. and complimented my laces.
when she was done, she lifted her hand for me to assist her in getting up.
she was incredible.
she made 2007 an amazing year. and in the nick of time, too.
