Mustaches and Hats!

E. Catherine Tobler is an accidental a bacon saving rock star. I got a little carried away while shopping for supplies for today’s comic and I don’t think I have time to create the comic you deserve. Catherine had no idea that was the case when she sent me this fabulous watercolor painting.

Thank you Ms Tobler. When Ms Tobler isn’t painting things she is a senior editor of the luscious Shimmer Magazine, a prolific author and generally tries to make the world a better place.

Art from my Sweetheart

Yes, I know I said I would give you a comic today, but I saw this beautiful drawing on my bookshelf and I knew I had to stick it to my wall of love and tell you all about it.

Nearly three months ago my sweetheart drew this for me while I was trying out for the Rat City Rollergirls Fresh Meat Program (called Rat Lab). I didn’t get in, but that didn’t stop my sweetheart from believing in me. Tryouts are coming up again and Saturday I’ll see if I’ve improved enough to get through. This will be the fourth time I try out for Rat City and I know even if I don’t get in this time either my sweetheart will keep on believing in me.

I love this drawing more than ever.
