And just because…

She was going to say 18 years ago, since he’s 18, but if you add 9 months of pregnancy and 4 months that he’s been 18, that count would be a full year and a month off.

I skipped Monday’s update because I got no sleep the night before & I simply couldn’t stay awake to finish scripting this comic. This time, I got 4.5 hours of sleep the night before & was tired again, but I had the advantage of a head start from Sunday & a head start Wednesday. Normally I start completely at midnight on the update day. So, a little earlier than usual. Yay!

The bright side of skipping Monday’s update, besides actually getting enough sleep and not missing work?: I don’t have to push forward the construction of my most ambitious 3D set like I was fearing. Not a huge difference, but I got more planning in. Still need to build the dang thing though.

This comic may be late for the same reason as last Monday(sleep deprivation), but this time I actually woke up in the morning! WHOA!!! That doesn’t happen enough. If I could choose a sleep schedule and actually follow it, I’d choose to wake up at 6am, go for an hour-long walk, then get to cartooning. Alas, I’m always starting my cartooning at midnight. I’ll keep trying to change my sleep schedule.
Also, this comic was plotted out way back in April, so no, it wasn’t inspired by my sleep issues. It’s inspired by my trying to use Pandora Radio to help me sleep. Seriously, they should choose appropriate ads for the stations.

*snooze*

Not looking good for Kenny.
That first panel is based on the frequent order of “a 3-piece dinner” at my workplace. We have 3 dinners that can be called a “3-piece dinner” and we ALWAYS have to ask which one. Sometimes they’ll just repeat “a 3-piece dinner”.

Yep, there’s a tea stand just off camera. Kenny needs his iced earl grey tea.

Kenny accidentally got 1,000 Boat Rent credits in this comic from long ago.

I really wasn’t sure if I’d have a comic today since I will have just traveled for 5 hours yesterday(I’m writing this before the trip), but I wound up doing this one at the same time as the previous one, and had it mostly finished Monday morning. Then I finished it Wednesday morning, as well as a wallpaper traced from the last panel(available on the Extras page). That wallpaper took longer than I intended. Another reason I was tempted to take a break is because I still don’t have Ook Island finished. I have the basic layout set, but I only have 3 buildings roughly shaped, and the rest is a rough idea in my mind. It’s set to appear next Thursday, so I’m going to be busy.
