Kara said she needed to talk to somebody. I guess she was just being methodical deciding who it was she’d talk to?
What’s nice, of course, is that the last person she decided to talk to is an expert in such things, and had wine. It would have been difficult on Kara to have to circle back to someone else as the best choice.
Or start talking to utter strangers, hoping that they had wine. THOSE conversations get weird.
The pot seems well and truly stirred now, folks!
Leave it to Daddy Biner to muddy the waters.
Sorry- this cartoon was supposed to have posted this past Friday, but the power went out… and the cable/internet went out… and I was getting ready for a trip…
Hm. Those are all the excuses I can think of.
Here’s a cartoon! I’ve only got two more for this week, but you’ll get ’em!
Ever have a really big dust up, relationship-wise? Lotta things that all sides think they say don’t reeeeaaally get said.
Of course, some of the things that do get said are stupid, but that’s a whole ‘nother cartoon.
And the spaces where nobody says anything? That’s when your brain fills in all kinds of things you think you said, meant to say, or ought to say.
Now, what the OTHER people hear, or take away? Who knows.
So let’s all assume we know what’s going on here, and let’s worry that we’re wrong. Or right, depending.
Side note for you guys that read this far down the page: “Light Of Other Days” is a neat book. People discover the means of hearing how their past conversations really really sounded. Please, please, don’t ever let people really develop that technology. Yikes. Of course, I suppose a constantly running digital recorder could do something like that, but it’s much cooler in a science fiction book. Arthur C. Clarke rocks.
In case you were wondering where our Roller Derby Girl got her nickname ‘Docta Pain’… it wasn’t from the injuries she inflicted during Derby.
It was the emotional damage she would occasionally inflict at practices and in the penalty box (does Derby even have one of those?) amongst the other athletes. She’s not proud of it, and she blames her parents, of course, but every so often… she’s just gotta get that fix, man. She’s gotta see that look in their eyes when the gossip goes deep and dark. Oh, the Pain… Docta Pain.
“Hubris-ish-ness”
That’s a word, now.
Nice of him, isn’t it? Steven, to step in and ask the question that Kara needs asked.
It might have been awkward for her to throw that out to Hubris and have to admit she really never asked about his family.
Steven’s a nice boy.
I think Kara has specific ideas about the answers to her questions.
Kara is putting two and two together.
I have no idea what her math skills are like.
What do you think?
