Today’s comic is gonna be a little late, I could outright say why, but I think it’s better if I tell the whole story in a convoluted, overly detailed, and meandering fashion.

Basically it goes like this: I spilled Jim Beam all over it and now it’s sopping wet and reeks of booze.

I was sitting here, having just finished inking today’s work, with a grin of smug self-satisfaction plastered across my face. I reached down to pick up the page and set it into the scanner and in doing so, took out my cup which was sitting next to my right elbow.

The cup fell in that weird ‘time warp slow motion’ where you can have a thousand thoughts in an instant 99% of mine were ‘ohhhh craaaaap’. So I managed to douse my computer, the comic, and various other little things sitting around with a mixture of Canada Dry and Jim Beam (which does NOT smell good). Short story shorter, it’s gonna be a few hours until the page drys and I can put it into the scanner without mucking things up (thank god for waterproof lightfast inks).

UPDATE:

More damage to computer than previously thought…looks like I’m gonna have to take this sucker apart again and try another fix. Apparently my drink got down into the front panel connections and it hosed my sound, wifi, bluetooth, headphone jack etc. how lovely. Add that to my last post and I guess I have a nice round number of problems.

UPDATE 2: Son of Update:

Comic is up as you may notice, I think I did a mighty fine job of salvaging that artwork! Now to fix this damn notebook -_-;
