I'm not addicted to writing these comics. I could stop any time. Really.

I still remember where I was when I heard about the train bombings. That's because I was studying abroad in Spain at the time. I was in Granada, not Madrid (where it happened), but I'd been in that same train station in Madrid only weeks earlier.
I was also there for the prime minister election and the prince's wedding. It was a very historic time.

Back when we used to watch TV, my husband always hit the mute button and covered his eyes when Charmin commercials came on. He said that they made wiping your butt look cutesy, which made him sick.

Yup, that is what happens when you teach children to put up with discomfort for the sake of reward. They brush their teeth, eat their veggies, do their homework... and then become drug addicts. At least that's what Abby's tinfoil hat told her.
In other news, I have a guest comic up at Cowbirds in Love! Thanks, Sanjay! (And I confess that even I have trouble remembering which one is Karen and which one is Sharon. I tried to come up with a mnemonic, but all I can think of is "Karen and Sharon, K and S, Kirk and Spock... wait, that doesn't work because Karen is actually a little more logical than Sharon.")

I think intense citric acid should be handled with caution-- maybe not with as much caution as hard drugs, but some caution at least. I used to eat so much highly acidic sour candy that the skin on my tongue started to peel.
I guess it says something about me that this sort of thing is what I look back on when I think of my wild, careless youth...
In other news:
That is me in an awesome T-shirt designed by an awesome artist. He is not yet selling on Threadless, but he should be.
If you would like to help him reach his dream, go and review his design. If 750 people rate it a "5," he will receive $2,500 for it, and it will be sold on Threadless. Today is the deadline, so vote fast! It doesn't cost you anything and it just might help a gifted young artist get his big break.

Actually, you can have your picture on a postage stamp without being dead if you have the stamps printed with certain photo printing services. That's always seemed kind of weird to me.
