Oh that Eleanor. Playing Anya like a puppet on a line.
So that’s the plan-or our government’s part of it anyway-get Jacob away from Anya for the Summer and hope that things cool off a bit. Plus, the royal family can get a good look at him while he’s over there. Who knows? They might like him.
So, I have some major life changes coming up (moving, new job, etc.) so this is gonna be the last comic for a while. As soon as life settles down to a dull roar, I’ll let you know what’s happening.
Rest assured, I am taking my drawing table and supplies along for the ride!
And yes, I had Barnes & Barnes’ “Fish Heads” going through my mind as I drew this.
UPDATE: Okay, I’ve moved! I don’t have my own place just yet, but I did set up my drawing table. I’ve finished one strip, but, since I don’t have a computer, I can’t scan it and publish yet. Never fear, that time is coming. In the meantime, I’m writing and drawing more strips.
So, please, keep checking back. There should be at least one more strip by next month. And thank you again for your patience. You’re the best.

I have been busy, busy, busy. Working for a new library system, commuting an hour and a half a day (I’m looking for permanent digs), and just generally dealing with massive dust settling.
But, as I mentioned to Tru, there are new strips! Yay! Let’s end 2017 right!
With chickens!

Oh Tru, I love you. Thanks for sticking around.
Hey! How about a new strip? I’ve drawn a few, and now that I’m on my computer (for a few days) I can letter them and post!
Stick around. There should be one up tomorrow.
We don’t forget. I for one check a couple of times a week, at least, to see if you’ve dropped a passing hello. 🙂
Its been about a month since we heard from you Charlie. You okay? How are the new digs?

Hey Tru!
I hate moving too (who doesn’t?), but this has gone pretty smoothly, It did involve a LOT of driving-two trips between California and Washington (my poor truck) and it’ll involve a lot of commuting and/or finding a temporary place to live for a month while I get my CDL. But I’m working on the rest of the story, and I’ll find a place to draw it.
I will give you a hint on where it’s probably going to go next: it’s Thursday.
Eat them up, YUM!
I hope moving has gone well. I swore I’d never move again when I bought my current home – that was in 1996 and I’m still here. Not as easy getting to the 2nd floor as it used to be but I persevere. Moving is the PITS.
We won’t rush you, but it’s nice that you’re responding to comments so at least we know you’re not completely entangled in all this new stuff. Very curious to know where this story is going next, and with whom. It’s hard to settle when I’ve grown so fond of ALL the characters. Yes, even Eleanor, though I still think she needs a rheostat.

Conga-rats back atcha, Storel! I understand your plight. I lived in SF in the early 80s (worked at a 3 story B. Daltons Booksellers downtown by day and The Magic Theatre by night) and it was pricey back then.
It’s gonna be a while before I get my own place, but when I do, I’m unpacking two truckloads of books and comics and setting up a studio!

Conga-rats on the move, Charlie! I just moved from San Francisco to SoCal myself a couple of months ago. My wife and I are staying with my cousin and his wife while we buy a house and get it renovated. Just couldn’t afford San Francisco any more… 8′-(
In reply to Charlie .
Hope he has a suitable suit that suits his betrothed’s parents! All suitor need a suitable suit for suitor-ing.

Welp, I’m down here in Sunny California, working on setting everything up for my new fabulous job (more on that in a future installment).
I still haven’t moved enough boxes to set up the drawing table, but that’s in the immediate future as well. I think we’ll leave these two lovebirds for a bit. More to come!
