Late-Night Sidetrack
I’ve been making a lot of progress on my as-yet-untitled New Orleans story, but the random ship-hilarity hasn’t stopped, so I can’t resist doing quick little journal comics, too. This is Marisca on the left, teaching us a little bit of Afrikaans. My friend Nicola teaches Afrikaans by accident, because it’s apparently a safe-ish way […]
Three Days: Woohoo!
This is from the last time Liz came on the ship, for spring break. We’d been out of touch for months at this point, and didn’t know what to expect. (Clearly, it turned out well.) This time the countdown is different because, thanks to ship-gossip, the ennntire ship knows she’s coming on, and that we […]
Do as I say, not as I do…
I totally don’t advocate drinking that much before boat drill. It’s just that for two years, Old San Juan was where my ship-husbands and I always went for a laid-back, eating-and-drinking good time. I’d taken my dudes to the Old Harbor Brewery that day, which Simon, a musician-friend from another ship, had shown ME last […]
Dinner with Seth and Kate
This was back in January, right before Seth signed off. If anyone knows a straight-male version of the term “fag hag,” please let me know. In the meantime, I’ve coined the term “ship-husband,” and Seth was a lovely one. He’s back on land doing the day-job and funk-band thing, but we’ll always have the cartoons.
Speaking of Imminent Travel…
I know I wasn’t gonna do new journal comics for a week or so, but this one popped into my head yesterday when I was watching “Milk” for the second time. (The first time was on a flight from Rome to Pittsburgh.) I used my friend Kate for the picture because she had an identical […]
24 Little Hours, p. 1/2
Hello! I’m in the Skagway Public Library right now, and consequently have to limit my internet time and bandwidth, but I just wanted to let you know the following: I’ve just re-started work on a longer story that I started last fall (and blithely advertised as “Available December 2009” in my minicomic for SPX). It’s […]
A Little Buffet Humor For Ya…
Diana, one of the singers, requested this one, and it was quite fun to oblige. So here I am at Silverbow, my first coffee/internet stop in Juneau. They make their own bagels, and I haven’t found a reason to eat anything for breakfast other than their egg and bacon bagel sandwich. However, Heritage Coffee down […]
