This webcomic, seen here is hosted on the free web host Comic Genesis which pretty much proves its not popular.

I just found out that there's nothing wrong with my car insurance after all! I got a letter (on the 23rd) that said it was to be cancelled on the 22nd for nonpayment. Which completely stumped me, because I'd sent them the check, and hadn't gotten it back, or any other notices. So I went by there today, and apparently they'd sent the notice, and then gotten the check a few days later. So now I don't have to spend money that I didn't have for insurance-renewal fees! :D

I finally sat down and read through the "new and improved 401k plan" that IBM is providing in place of the standard plan plus a pension plan.

The new plan matches 100% for the first 6% I put in, instead of 50%. And it gives me a free 2% on top of anything else.

So I upped my contribution to 6% and netted myself a 3% raise.

Yay me.

I just got locked into my first duty station, and while it wasn't my number one choice (Egypt) it was my number two choice. By the end of this year, there will officially be one less CGer posting from America, and one more located in Europe. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to Germany. :D :D :D

I drew and colored the last two comics that will go up in March, and they actually look good, in opposition to what will be updating for the next week which looks less good.
And I wrote 5 pages in my book last night, which makes me happy because I haven't been able to write anything since December! Writer's block vanquished.

I got my tickets, and hotel booked for my trip to london.

Speaking of long ass hiatus... I think I finally got all the reworked stuff for my comic done, so now I can plunge into the final storyline, I got planned. and hopefully this time next year I'll be mentioning the start of another comic... well here's hoping.

People in chat may remember me despairing because I backed out of my internet contract but still got the bill.
Letter came today saying I owe 'em fuck all. My -15 quid actually comes under the heading "good-will". Made my day :lol:

We decided kinda spur of the moment to head down to my mom's for the weekend. Damn, how I miss true darkness and absolute quietness of the country. Also met up with Fadie on the way home and visited for 3 hours.

I love those clear nights when you can look up and REALLY see the night sky.

my mom though told me that the new Wal-Mart about a mile away has created a glow along the tree line.

...I really fucking hate Wal-Mart...

Holy shit, it's 60 degrees outside. And my insides don't hurt as much as they did earlier in the week.
