…I have no explanation for what you’re looking at right now.

There IS an explanation for why I’m so tired and distracted and stuff, but I think I’ll save it for a slightly later date. WAIT IN SUSPENSE!!! MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!

(Historical Notes: The tease up there is about a later subset of filler comics, but the REAL reason I was out of it was getting ready to move back to North Carolina.  Have I mentioned yet how burned out and depressed I was about DC by this point?  It’s kind of funny, because I gave both my landlord and my boss an INSANE amount of advance warning that I was leaving, the landlord to make sure I got my deposit back, and my boss so I’d have time to train my replacement before I quit… and only one of the two actually did anything about it.  I’d get out of the house just fine, but right up to the day I left the restaurant they still hadn’t hired a new person to pick up any of the jobs I was doing.  Have I also mentioned that the restaurant closed within a year of me quitting?)
