Remember when you were a kid? And when your mom was yelling it was really bad… and when she got quiet, that was the worst it could get.

Would any of you dyed-in-the-wool patrons of the strip like to explain to any new readers about where the nickname ‘Karabug’ comes from?
I used to assume no one would necessarily remember, but you guys know more about this strip than I do…
I can write ‘Morning People’ (or, as they can alternately be called, ‘Not Evening People’) pretty well since I am one.
When I was in college, I tried being an evening person. You know, staying up til all hours trying to get projects finished for classes.
It wasn’t until after I graduated and discovered (through an odd series of events) that I did much better work much faster in the mornings than I did at night when everyone else was grabbing coffees and getting down to brass tacks.
What should have been a dead giveaway to my inability to work at night is that, unless I was careful to prepare myself with attitude and caffeine, I would start becoming useless by ten or eleven. Work slowed to a crawl and as the night wore on, I found myself thinking I heard voices or that there were people in the apartment with me, or I would just waken hunched over my drawing board with a tiny, intricate scribble in place of what I had, moments before and unconsciously, believed to be a finished drawing of a fish.
Why teddy bears, anyhow? I mean, I’ve heard the stories about Roosevelt and whatever, but… Bears. Man, those things are dangerous!
As you may suspect, it takes minimal effort to type up these micro-blog bits.
On the other hand, I was really engrossed in a ‘Sawbones’ podcast while coloring and prepping the cartoon tonight, and was pretty hesitant to hit ‘pause’ in order to think up something to write here.
And so, I now offer up an endorsement of the ‘Sawbones’ podcast. It’s pretty good.
There’s a lot of kinds of doctors, and there’s no reason to go excluding any of them when you’re building a team. Right?
Everyone, I’d like you to meet Cherri Bomm, another of the Roller Derby Girls.
I don’t know what team she’s on. Discuss.
