Absence Defines Existence<=some postmodern BS


Hey Kids!

So Redfield was called "back East" for the majority of the weekend to handle family matters. As I watched him pull his luggage from the trunk of my car at the Delta section of the airport, I was already aware that there would be no comic posting for the majority of the week.

However, there is a chance that we will have some fun stuff up by Friday/Saturday/Sunday-ish. Until Redfield's return, I'm content to let myself get bogged down with books and late assignments in the time-energy sink hole that has become my current academic career. It sucks. But I'm only a year away from freedom.

Oh, one cool thing! A group of fellow writing students from my CSUSM Lit department got together on Sunday at Tom Gibblins pub to discuss everything from writing to...well, literature. However, after a few whiskey-and-cokes for me and some lemon-drop martinis for the ladies, we were well on our way to simply ranting about the odd, eccentric, nerdy, or annoying folks we've had to put up with in class for the past 2-6 years. It felt really good to be part of a community, even if that community is really more of a mob purchasing pitchforks and lighting torches for some up-coming, impromptu celebration of bloody and unparalleled neurotic and antisocial--OOOO! I smell dinner!

Back later,

Maybe.
