Last properly-scanned comic for awhile…. :)
This happened right before I left for Pittsburgh-Florida-Pittsburgh-New York-San Juan. Now I’m at an outdoor cafe in Antigua with two old ship-friends and two new ones! Signing onto your first ship is terrifying, but the seventh time has been really good so far! Every time I turn a corner, there’s a familiar face from another […]
I made it!
I arrived yesterday in San Juan–Woohoo!–and got to spend the night before signing on the ship. (I’m actually in the hotel lobby right now, waiting for the crew shuttle.)
