Okay, I'm up and around again. I managed to draw a whole comic strip this morning, and I hope to get Sunday's done by the end of the day. My back is still sore and I'm still trying to cough up a small cephelopod from my lungs. I'm going to get this week's and next week's strips done, and then I'm probably going to take the last two weeks of the year off to rest and recuperate and then get a little ahead on things. Thank you for your patience.
