Sometimes you need some peace and quiet. Sometimes you don’t.
I’m skirting the edge of the kind of sexist joke I typically don’t bother with.
You’re welcome.
Jumped out of another plane.
It was actually the same plane, but you get the idea.
The first time? Your brain is micro-memorizing things, and you do stuff wrong.
The second time, you have your little list of ‘to-do’ and your brain has something other than panic to work with.
This time went a lot faster, I can tell you.
But I did steer better. Though I might have steered us toward some of the other skydivers. The guys in charge won’t tell you, but my instructor dude (Christian Young, this time) sure made a yelp and steered us around again when I suddenly made a hard left that one time, and my uncle passed through my wake, apparently. Never knew parachutes caused much of a a wake, one way or the other. How about that.
Don’t forget to click on a couple of project wonderful ads… They close up shop in a week or so.
Also, finally getting around to the site upgrade, and fixing some of the broken links you guys have pointed out to me. Waiting on prices for various things. I apologize that I haven’t given time to the business end of Hubriscomics.com lately, but you know how it is… life and all.
And thanks!! I see that two people have bought Stanky Creek Outdoorfest T-shirts off the Zazzle page (it’s the button down the left side of the site that says ‘Outdoor Galore Store’) Wear ’em with pride! I assume you’re also part of Team US, or one of the other nice folks who’ve sent in applications. I’ll be including everyone at some point or other.
Lots of ‘T’s in the Title Today. Anyhow, we’re doing an ‘Inception’ kinda day, where Troy does a cartoon that’s a cartoon by ‘John’ who’s the ‘Old Man’ in ‘Old Man & His Dog’ which is actually the strip done by Troy…
I know what you’re saying… It’s like an onion. Or parfait. Layers.
Years ago, I did a Buckets cartoon where Larry looks at his dinner plate and says, “What’s this? Is this all?” and Sarah says, “You said you wanted to eat better and lose weight.” Larry replies, “That was YESTERDAY!”
As much as Larry is me (but then, so is nearly everyone else in my comic strips) I don’t want to be like that any more.
I did about as well with my food intake yesterday as I did the day before, but I sure would like to start backsliding already. Gonna be a long road to change my habits.
I liked the idea posted earlier about writing down everything I eat. Some things just aren’t worth the bother to eat if you have to go through the extra bother of writing them down. That’s the kind of thing that appeals to my sense of absurdity.
You’d be proud. For lunch, I had a banana and a handful of beef jerky.
On the other hand, for breakfast I had two eggs and a bratwurst rolled up in a flour tortilla. It was after I took the dog for a walk in the woods, though.
Hopefully, I came out ahead. We’ll see.
I really do appreciate everyone’s advice- all of it. All the stuff that I already have heard and all the stuff that sounds different and engaging. It’s gonna take all of it for me to break the old habits and make some new ones. I should have brought it up sooner.
I need to eat better. Anyone want to share strategies for eating less? There’s probably something that’ll really click with me, but darned if I know what it is yet.
Yeah, I know that has nothing to do with today’s cartoon, but seriously… I trust you guys to know stuff I don’t.
Kelly’s not as mercenary as he seems. It’s just… crazy money folds as many times as sane money.
That’s my new aphorism.
It doesn’t mean anything much, so I predict it will become very widely used and oft repeated.
Also, Project Wonderful is about to go belly-up. If you have ever discovered new webcomics to read by checking out the Project Wonderful ads I have on the site, you might wanna try out a couple more until the second week of next month, which, I gather, is about it for the ol’ PW. *sigh*
