Not blowin' you off...
Added 2020-02-28 08:31:35 +0000 UTCI'm not blowin' you ladies and gents off, or at least not for frivolous reasons. I've had a great deal of pretty important non-shop work to do that last week or two. The kind of thing you can't really blow off or set aside. The kind of thing everything else gets set aside FOR.
I do apologize for the iffy updates, but at the moment, I don't have a choice. This stuff HAS to be done.
I'm hoping that next week will be back to normal, or at least mostly so, but if not, I have some guest strips from Mark of FreeFall and Kathy of Carry On I may end up using. (I'd have used them this week if I'd known how nasty things were going to get, but both of them gave me a storyline, rather than individual, standalone strips. :D )
Anyway, again, sorry for the delays and repeated strips, but please understand I'm sure not doing this on a whim. I very much appreciate your patience and understanding.
Doc.

2020-02-28 19:28:51 +0000 UTCI had one of those weeks last week. I got way behind on comics. But at least I only read them, not write them, so nobody else was affected. :)

2020-02-28 14:48:03 +0000 UTCNo worries.

2020-02-28 14:40:48 +0000 UTCWe all have times like that Doc. Hang in there and enjoy a little help from your friends.
2020-02-28 12:51:27 +0000 UTCHey, Doc, do what you have to do to maintain your health, sanity, and family -not necessarily in that order. As for guest artists, I can't think of anyone I'd rather see step in than the Hyena Queen herself - Kathy G - and the rather flighty Mark. You couldn't have better help! (and to Kathy and Mark - now that I've said nice things about you, do I get those t-shirts you promised?)

2020-02-28 12:31:06 +0000 UTCHey Doc, whatever you gotta do, man. Been reading the comic for seemingly forever. I know you're doing everything you can to keep it going. But yeah, sometimes there's other things that come up. The comic's not your actual 9-5 (or, with your work ethic, 3a-11p), so we know that it'll sometimes get put aside for the stuff that keeps the lights on. No worries at all and hope things ease out soon for you. ^_^

2020-02-28 09:39:43 +0000 UTCI wish. I'd rather do Wesley Snipes' taxes than what I have to do. I'll explain eventually, but at the moment it's really not something I want to talk about.
